Alternative and Inclusive Learning in the Philippines
The Philippines has made remarkable progress in improving the quality of basic education in recent decades. Even so, despite significant improvements in primary and secondary education, the number of students who drop out of school remains worryingly high. More than five million youths have failed to complete a basic education. Alternative Learning System (ALS) is a second-chance, informal education program operated by the Department of Education (DepEd) for out-of-school youths and adults. This report aims to assess the current implementation of ALS using a variety of sources , including recent surveys, and analyzes (a) the target populations, (b) current beneficiaries, (c) delivery modes (with a focus on learning facilitators’ contracting schemes), and (d) labor market returns to ALS. Key messages are as follows: (i) Only a small proportion of the target populations are enrolled in the ALS program, (ii) the first target groups for ALS are students who drop out of high school for financial reasons, (iii) performance-based payment is expected to improve performance, (iv) the current arrangement for monitoring activities within the ALS program can be improved, (v) labor market returns to ALS are significant only when learners successfully pass the secondary A&E exam, and (vi) small class size (fewer than 40 learners per facilitator) is more efficient. The report concludes that a holistic approach is required for a socially efficient solution for students who do not complete school and those who are at high risk. An expansion of ALS may distort incentives among students currently in school, and coordinated efforts with other programs such as the Alternative Delivery Mode are becoming increasingly important. Earlier intervention guarantees greater returns.

The Philippines has made remarkable
progress in improving the quality of basic education in
recent decades. Even so, despite significant improvements in
primary and secondary education, the number of students who
drop out of school remains worryingly high. More than five
million youths have failed to complete a basic education.
Alternative Learning System (ALS) is a second-chance,
informal education program operated by the Department of
Education (DepEd) for out-of-school youths and adults. This
report aims to assess the current implementation of ALS
using a variety of sources , including recent surveys, and
analyzes (a) the target populations, (b) current
beneficiaries, (c) delivery modes (with a focus on learning
facilitators’ contracting schemes), and (d) labor market
returns to ALS. Key messages are as follows: (i) Only a
small proportion of the target populations are enrolled in
the ALS program, (ii) the first target groups for ALS are
students who drop out of high school for financial reasons,
(iii) performance-based payment is expected to improve
performance, (iv) the current arrangement for monitoring
activities within the ALS program can be improved, (v) labor
market returns to ALS are significant only when learners
successfully pass the secondary A&E exam, and (vi) small
class size (fewer than 40 learners per facilitator) is more
efficient. The report concludes that a holistic approach is
required for a socially efficient solution for students who
do not complete school and those who are at high risk. An
expansion of ALS may distort incentives among students
currently in school, and coordinated efforts with other
programs such as the Alternative Delivery Mode are becoming
increasingly important. Earlier intervention guarantees
greater returns. |
