THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK
October 08, 2021-The department of Education is serving 2.529 million IP learners in 42,176
public schools around Philippines in the first decade of the Indigenous Peoples Education (IPED) program
according to the agency’s Indigenous People’s Education office (IPsEO).
Through DepEd order 62’s. 2011 or the national Indigenous Peoples Education policy framework
which was formulated after several consultations sessions with IP leaders and elders. The department
officially commenced the institutionalization of the IP education program in 2011. The policies adopt a
right-based approach and direct the implementation of an education that is anchored on the social and
cultural context of IP learners.
IPED program is DepEd’s response to the right of indigenous communities and indigenous learners
to an education that responsive to their context. It respects their identities and it values and promotes
their knowledge systems, and their competencies, and the values that are important to them, and of
course, the other parts of their heritage. Senior technical assistant and IPsEO head MARIA LOURIE
VICTOR shared during a DepEd teaches episode.
This was a product if the dialogue of DepEd and IP communities trying to find common ground so
that the advocacy, for what is now called Indigenous Peoples Education could move forward.
Despite the extreme impact of the pandemic to the IP communities, the enrollment of IP learners
in public schools for school year 2020-2021 reached 98. 49% of previous school year in January 2021,
from the 83% initial figure in September 2020.
Some of the continuing initiatives for IP learners to experience culture- responsive education are
the contextualization of lesson plans. Use of the local language for teaching having elders as teachers
and mentors using the ancestral domain as classroom establishing IPED senior high school. Hiring more
teachers who know the knowledge and the culture and delivering more facilities.
To sustain IPED in schools in school year 2021-2022, the department aims to have additional
PROGRAM SUPPORT FUNDS (PSF) to ensure learning continuity through continued contextualization of
learning resources and COVID-related materials, orientation of new teachers and school heads assigned
to schools in IP communities, and enhancement learning delivery modalities.
“And so, moving forward, we continue with our journey of solidarity with indigenous community so
that together we are able to care for our IP learners as they grow into the future.” Victor noted.
