LESSON TITLE: Opportunities for School- Community Partnership- Learning from Experiences of Schools
and Community Partnership

LEARNING OBJECTIVES:
1. explain what school and community partnership means;
2. explain the legal and sociological bases of school and; community partnership; and
3. cite examples of school-community partnerships.

Concept Note:
Opportunities for School-Community Partnership
 Partnership implies two parties helping each other. Both parties benefit. This means that if a school -
community partnership exists, both parties benefit from the relationship. Thus, in the following
paragraphs we shall present what communities can do for schools and what schools can do for
communities.

What can the community do for schools? Here are examples of what a community can do for schools:

1. Brigada Eskwela - This program engages all education stakeholders to contribute their time, effort and
resources in ensuring that public school facilities are set in time for the forthcoming school opening. It takes
place more or less two weeks before classes begin in June. This is a school maintenance program that has been
institutionalized since 2009 when DepEd issued DepEd Order # 100.

2. Curriculum development This can mean use of community resources for learning. e.g. museum, elders of
the community as key informants in research or resource persons in the study of local history

3. Work experience programs - Business establishments and offices in the community can serve as training
ground for learners. A concrete example is the Work Immersion required of Senior High School students.

In this Work Immersion, students are given the opportunity to work in relevant establishments or offices
in the community to help develop in them "the competencies, work ethics, and values relevant to pursuing
further education and/or joining the world of work....
• Partner offices for immersion provide Senior High School students with opportunities:
1) to become familiar with the work place;
2) for employment simulation; and
3) to apply their competencies in areas of specialization /applied subjects in authentic work
environments (Enclosure to DepEd Order No. 30. 3. 2017).

4. Remediation and enrichment classes Parents and retired teachers may be involved in the School Reading
remediation and Learning Enrichment Programs.

5. Youth Development Programs The young may involve themselves in youth development programs and
develop their skills and talents, learn how to deal positively with peers and adults and serve as resources in their
communities.

6. Community Service Examples of community service are students participating in tutorial programs,
community reforestation programs, clean up drive for a river, assisting in medical mission; school head
involved in planning local celebrations, teachers managing programs, projects, activities; school band playing in
fiesta parade

 What can schools do for communities in return?


 Schools may allow the community to use school resources. Here are concrete examples enumerated by the

THE TEACHER AND THE COMMUNITY, SCHOOL CULTURE AND ORGANIZATIONAL LEADERSHIP
DepEd Primer on School Community Partnership:
1. Classroom used by community organizations for meetings
2. School used as a polling place and venue for medical mission which it may co-sponsor with the Rural
Health Unit
3. School used by the Rural Health Unit for mothers' class on child care
4. School used as an evacuation center
5. School facilities used for community assemblies
6. School basketball court used for local celebrations and barangay sports league
7. Schools conduct livelihood skills-training programs for parents and out-of-school youths by using
school resources
8. Livelihood skills-training for parents and out of school youths by teachers themselves

Sociological Basis of School-Community Partnership?


 The functionalist theory states that institutions must perform their respective functions for the stability of
society. Other institutions must come in if one institution fails to do its part for the sake of society.

Sociological Basis of School-Community Partnership?
 The functionalist theory states that institutions must perform their respective functions for the stability of
society. Other institutions must come in if one institution fails to do its part for the sake of society.

 The upbringing of children is the main and irreplaceable duty and responsibility of the family. But with
the weakening influence of the family on the upbringing of children and with children's unlimited
exposure to modern technology like the internet, the challenge for schools to teach the young has
become even greater. So schools cannot do it all. They have to partner with community. RA 9155-
Governance of basic Education Act

• RA 8525
• In this partnership, children, the primary customers of schools, are most benefited but school and
community are likewise mutually benefited.
• RA 9155, also known as the Governance of Basic Education Act, BP 232 which is the Education Act of
1982, RA. 8525, Adopt -ASchool Program Act and Agenda 2030 stipulate school and community partnership.
• There are many opportunities for school and community partnership. The Brigada Eskwela which is now
institutionalized in DepEd Schools is a glaring proof of school and community partnership. Schools with all its
human and material resources can offer services also to the community in many ways.
