MANILA, Philippines (Updated 3:46 p.m.) — The political party of Manila City Mayor Isko Moreno wrote the Department of Education to report what it said was "a possible violation of government policy against using public schools for partisan political activity" after social media posts went viral of a school encouraging students to welcome another election bet. 

 

A DepEd official said the department will investigate the matter.

 

In a statement sent to reporters, Aksyon Demokratiko Chairman Ernesto Ramel Jr said he sent the letter addressed to Education Secretary Leonor Briones a day before the March 12 official visit of Vice President Leni Robredo to Alcala, Cagayan. To recall, the viral posts involved teachers from the Baybayog National High School in Alcala.
