Partnership of Philex Mining Corporation and DepEd

BECAUSE WE CARE!
________________________________________________________
For the past years, some schools in Tuba and Itogon are being listed as the lowest in rank in National Achievement Test (NAT) which made the staff of Philex Mining Corporation be concerned because one of its social responsibilities under the Social Development and Management Program (SDMP) is the upliftment of literacy level of the schools which the company has been supporting for a decade.
So to address the said academic challenge, they decided to support trainings for the educators of Tuba District and Itogon District II.

The first training that Philex funded was the Transformational Leadership Training at Bayombong, Nueva Vizcaya last December 27-28, 2014 which was participated by the Principals, Head teachers, Teachers-In-Charge, and some selected teachers of Tuba. In this training, they were able to reassess their selves as an educator and at the same time, they started working on their students’ handbook as it may help them guide their students accurately.

Second is the Plenary of teachers and School heads of Tuba at Bani, Pangasinan wherein the educators benchmarked their strength and weaknesses and also identified trainings and other necessities for them to deliver quality education to their learners.

Third is the Educators’ Congress held at Sta. Maria, Ilocos Sur on April 12-16, 2014 wherein 180 educators from Tuba District and Itogon District II participated.


"The trainings that you have granted us had a very big impact on our personal lives and to our teaching career as well. Rest assured that we give our full support in your company in campaigning responsible mining." says Mr. William D. Abance, Public Schools District Supervisor - Tuba District.


It has been one of the company’s visions to assist the DepEd to heighten the quality of education being given to the learners in Tuba and Itogon, but not limited to the areas being supported by company.
