MANILA, Philippines — Sen. Sherwin Gatchalian is seeking a Senate inquiry on strengthening the complementary roles of public and private schools to achieve the country’s national objectives and sustainable development goals in education.

 

In Proposed Senate Resolution No. 12, Gatchalian said there was a need to formulate a dynamic and responsive framework to further operationalize the principle of complementarity between public and private institutions to establish a more integrated system of education.

 

Gatchalian, who chairs the Senate Committee on Basic Education, pointed to the challenges hounding the private education sector, some of which were exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic and the economic downturn.
