Significant Accomplishment Fostering Learning

Name of Innovation: PRIMES (PROGRAM FOR REMEDIAL INTERVENTION FOR

MATH, ENGLISH & SCIENCE)
Proponent: Mrs. Karla Victoria I. Ong

A. Innovation Statement
This innovation aimed to establish a systematic remediation and intervention system for
students who encountered challenges and did not succeed during the first quarter, to reduce the
overall number of failures by the end of School Year 2023-2024.

B. Innovation Description
 The innovator focused on students who received failing grades in Math, English, and
Science during the first quarter.
 Through collaboration with teachers in these subjects, a Focused Group Discussion
(FGD) and School Learning Action Cell (SLAC) were conducted to strategize and plan
specific activities for the remediation of the targeted students. Each teacher was required
to complete an action plan, specifying dates and activities to be accomplished.
 The innovator monitored the teachers' remedial sessions weekly, and their quarterly
grades were scrutinized to assess the number of students who demonstrated improvement
after undergoing remediation and intervention.

C. Innovation Accomplishment
 The innovation has been particularly beneficial for Math, English, and Scienceteachers,
who previously faced challenges in addressing the learning gaps of their students. With
PRIMES, teachers can logically organize activities for students who failed across the
four quarters.
 Based on their quarterly grades, 166 students failed in these three subjects during the
first quarter. However, after a series of remediation and interventions provided by their
teachers, only 13 students still did not pass in Math, although 18 students were tagged in
the LIS as No Longer Participating in Learning Activities.

 Therefore, PRIMES effectively reduced the number of failures in Math, English, and
Science by the end of the school year. Nevertheless, since some students still failed and
 others were tagged as no longer participating in learning activities, the innovator and the
teachers should make adjustments to improve the program for the next school year.
 This program is not limited to these three subjects and can be applied across all subject
areas. Students who did not pass the remediation are highly recommended to enroll in
the National Learning Camp since they have beenconditionally promoted.

 Key Targets Strategies
Standardization of remediation and enrichment The first quarter of the 2023-2024 school year
activities of all learning areas revealed similar challenges, particularly in core
subjects like Math, where 19% of students failed,
compared to 2% in English and 5% in Science.
These results highlighted the lingering effects of
modular distance learning and the continued
need for intervention. In response, the school
introduced PRIMES (Program for Remediation
Intervention in Math, English, and Science),
aligning with DepEd’s MATATAG Agenda and
Learning Recovery Plan. PRIMES provided
structured tutorials, mentoring, and coaching
across all three subjects, ensuring that students
received the support they needed to close
learning gaps and regain academic confidence.
The program’s standardized interventions
emphasized that no student should be left behind
Utilization of contextualized and quality assured To ensure that students receive the highest
LRs and Upskilling of the teachers on Blended quality education, teachers have been utilizing
Learning Delivery contextualized and quality-assured learning
resources (LRs) from DepEd Portals
specifically tailored to meet the diverse needs of
our learners. These materials are carefully
designed and vetted to align with DepEd
standards, guaranteeing that the content is
relevant, culturally appropriate, and effective in
addressing the learning gaps.

Teachers have attended In-Service training,

including workshops, LAC sessions, and
peer mentoring, to adapt to blended learning.
This equips them with the skills to create
engaging and supportive learning experiences
across various formats, using innovative
strategies and modern technology to meet today's
educational demands.
Protection of Instructional Time Remediation session was scheduled during
strategic periods, offering students additional
support at 12:30-1:00 pm and 4:00-4:30 pm
daily.
Prioritization of Literacy and Numeracy To address failing grades in Math, English, and
Enhancement Science, the school has also implemented the
PRIMES (Program for Remedial Intervention in
Math, English, and Science). Through
collaborative efforts between teachers and
 program innovators, tailored action plans and
activities have been developed for struggling
students. Monthly monitoring, along with School
Learning Action Cell (LAC) sessions, allows the
school to continuously evaluate progress and
adjust strategies. The success of these efforts is
evident in the quarterly assessments, which
reflect noticeable improvements in students'
performance as a result of targeted remediation
and intervention.
Operationalization of 21st Century Assessment, This approach uses digital tools like eclass
records to track student progress in real time,
allowing teachers to keep an eye on how well
students are doing and adjust their teaching as
needed. Regular formative assessments, like
quizzes, fun and engaging activities, and peer
reviews, help check understanding and give
immediate feedback. Summative assessments,
such as projects and, standardized tests, measure
what students have learned at the end of each
unit or quarter. Performance-based assessments
or performance tasks encourage students to use
their skills in real-life situations, helping them
think critically and solve problems. Overall, this
varied assessment strategy improves the learning
experience and ensures all students gain the skills
they need to succeed in a changing educational
environment.
Revitalization of innovations for learning In PRIMES, real-time data tracking now enables
monthly assessments, allowing teachers to make
quick adjustments to their action plans based on
immediate insights. This more frequent
monitoring helps tailor remediation strategies to
the specific needs of each student. Teachers
further enhance their skills through School LAC
sessions and Focused Group Discussions, where
they explore innovative teaching methods and
technologies that support differentiated
instruction, making the intervention more
dynamic and effective.
Transformation of Leadership and Supervisory The PRIMES program for remediation
Practices interventions in Math, English, and Science
focuses on transforming leadership and
supervisory practices to enhance student
performance. Under this framework, the head
teacher or the innovator plays a key role in
strategizing and planning activities for targeted
students.
 Collected data on the student
performance in Math, English, and
Science to identify learning gaps.
 Developed specific, tailored intervention
plans for each student based on their
needs.
 Created a remediation team involving
Math, Engslish, and Science and teachers
to coordinate efforts.
 Used the dats gathered to adjust the
intervention strategies and ensure the
effectives of the remediation efforts.
 Encouraged collaborative learning among
teachers, where they can share innovative
strategies for improving outcomes.
