Onboarding Isidorean Faculty for MATATAG Success

The School-Based Training of Teachers (SBTT) MATATAG Curriculum Training for Private Schools began on July 23, 2024, at the International Montessori School and lasted three days. Representative-faculty members from Isidore de Seville Integrated School who participated in this important event organized by the School Division of Malolos were Teacher Marjorie P. Fajardo for Kindergarten, Teacher Jocelyn G. Dalusung for Edukasyong Pantahanan at Pangkabuhayan 4, Teacher Dreamy Rose C. Payumo for Mathematics, Reading and Literacy, Language, Makabansa, and GMRC, and Sir Adrian R. Fuertes who covered Filipino 4.

The training kicked off with the Philippine National Anthem, a prayer, and a welcome address from the Vice President for Academic and Student Affairs of the International Montessori Center. This was followed by an inspiring message from School Division Superintendent, Ms. Leilani Samson Cunanan. Mr. Ariel R. Inocencio, President of the Private Schools Association in Malolos, led the roll call, and the Chief Education Supervisor presented the Statement of Purpose.

The first session, led by Mr. Rodrigo F. Roxas, covered the MATATAG Curriculum’s General Shape, focusing on why and how the existing curriculum needs updating and how the MATATAG Curriculum will be implemented based on students’ progress. The second session, by Mr. Benjamin L. Raymundo, discussed 21st Century Skills in the MATATAG Curriculum, emphasizing essential skills for students. Isidore teacher Sir Adrian Fuentes contributed by discussing DepEd’s Mission. Mr. Rommel C. Cruz presented the third session on the MATATAG Curriculum’s Instructional Design Framework, and Ms. Teresa R. Manlapaz concluded the day with a session on Integrating 21st Century Skills in Classroom-based Assessment.

On the second day, the focus was on Breakout Sessions by Learning Area. Isidore teacher representatives engaged actively in discussions and activities, following instructions to gain a thorough understanding of the MATATAG curriculum and how to address potential classroom challenges. The day also featured sessions on reading and literacy.

The third day featured participants sharing their thoughts on the training, followed by a Pledge of Commitment. Certificates were awarded by Assistant Schools Division Superintendent Ms. Fernandina P. Otchengco. The event concluded with closing remarks from Chief Education Supervisor Ms. Cynthia C. Briones and master of ceremonies Mr. Jairus Edward D. Fenix.

As Isidore teachers prepare to implement the MATATAG Curriculum, they should be ready to use this new framework to benefit learners. The training also anticipated potential challenges, but Isidore school administrators are committed to supporting these changes to enhance education services and ensure a smooth transition for everyone involved.
