This means that many of our youth are still in schoolripe for
learning and training.
This also means that the investments in education we make
today will, to a large extent, define the future of this young
peopleand, consequently, of our country.
The school bills your committee is putting before the body
today involve the creation of new schools, renaming of existing
ones, or their conversion into independent units.
We believe these measures will be instrumental in
improving the quality of education and widen access to learning
facilities.
As the number of school-age children continues to increase,
so must our schools capacity to accommodate them. This

necessitates the transformation of certain annexes of secondary
schools into autonomous units with full financial and
administrative mandates.
Your committee, as well as the House Committee on Basic
Education, believes these units have demonstrated the capability
to stand on their own. By making them independent, they will be
able to better serve their immediate communities. They will be
more attuned to the needs of their constituents, particularly in
putting out-of-school youth back into school.
Some of these schools respond to the special requirements of
their communities as they specialize in trade, technical-vocational
or agricultural studies.

Allow me to show select education indicators of the
provinces involved (Annex I) and their ranking in the Human
Development Index (HDI).
The HDI measures life expectancy, literacy, education, and
standards of living of a country, and serves as a standard gauge
of well-being.
As we can see, some of these provinces perform better than
the Philippines taken as a whole. In terms of the percentage of
population 18 years and above who are high school graduates,
several provinces, like Bataan, Batangas, Ilocos Norte and
Misamis Oriental, exceeded the countrys average.
La Union even stands out for having 100 percent enrollment
rate at the primary and secondary levels.

However, many of these provinces fall short of the
performance of Metro Manila, arguably the standard of
competitiveness in our country.
We hope to help them be on the same level as the National
Capital Region, if not better. The first step toward realizing that is
improving their educational facilities.
