DO 43, s. 2001
Organization of Preschool Classes Under the Preschool Service Contracting Scheme SY 2001-2002
1. Preschool Service Contracting Scheme is an alternative delivery system which aims to provide preschool experiences to prospective Grade I children in fifth and sixth class municipalities, urban slums and relocation areas.
2. Data gathered from the 6-month pilot in SY 1992 – 1998 revealed that through the said program, children experienced a smoother transition from home to formal schooling. Children developed self-confidence and their preparedness to learn was evident.
3. The program is now on its fifth year of implementation this October, SY 2001 – 2002. In view of this, ail regions/divisions are requested to submit a list of enrollees who are prospective Grade 1 pupils next school year. These are the pupils who are not accommodated in any school-based preschools and day care centers in the 5th and 6th class municipalities. Private preschools and nongovernment organizations shall be contracted as service providers.
4. For effective implementation of the Program, please refer to the Guidelines for the Organization of Classes.
5. Immediate and wide dissemination of this Order is desired.
