Every Child A Reader: A Leap Towards Literacy

In the realm of education, the year 2002 marked a significant milestone in the Philippines. The Department of Education (DepEd) issued an order, DepEd Order No. 45, s. 2002, that aimed to revolutionize the basic education curriculum. The primary objective of this initiative was to ensure that every child becomes a successful reader by the end of Grade III.

The Birth of a New Policy

The policy, aptly named “Every Child A Reader,” was enforced beginning the School Year 2002-2003. This policy was not just a statement of intent but a commitment to the future of the nation. The premise was simple yet profound: no pupil would be promoted to the next higher grade unless he/she manifests mastery of the basic literacy skills at a particular grade level.

The Road to Literacy

The journey towards literacy is not without its challenges. Recognizing this, the Department of Education pledged to extend all possible means of assistance and encouragement to enable the child to read. This commitment was not just about teaching children to read but about fostering a love for reading that would last a lifetime.

School-Based Reading Program

In line with this policy, all schools were enjoined to develop a School-Based Reading Program. This comprehensive program includes conducting an inventory of the children’s reading ability, diagnosing those who need further reading instruction, and implementing appropriate measures to improve reading comprehension.

The School-Based Reading Program is a testament to the belief that every child can learn to read with the right instruction and support. It is a commitment to provide every child with the tools they need to succeed, not just in school, but in life.

The Future of Literacy

The “Every Child A Reader” policy and the School-Based Reading Program are more than just initiatives; they are investments in the future. By ensuring that every child can read by the end of Grade III, we are giving them the foundation they need to succeed in life.

Understanding Grade Transmutation in DepEd

Understanding Grade Transmutation in DepEd In the Philippine education system, grade transmutation is the process of converting raw scores into equivalent grades. This ensures consistency and fairness when assessing student performance. DepEd follows specific guidelines for transmuting grades, allowing educators to evaluate students objectively. How Does Grade Transmutation Work? Initial Grades : Students receive raw scores (usually out of 100) for their assessments, exams, and projects. These initial grades serve as the basis for transmutation. Transmuted Grades : To convert initial grades into transmuted grades, DepEd uses a predefined scale. Let’s take a closer look at the scale: Table Initial Grade Range Transmuted Grade 100 100 98.40 – 99.99 99 96.80 – 98.39 98 … … 68.00 – 69.59 80 Below 68.00 60 Interpreting the Scale : For example, if a student scores between 98.40 and 99.99, their transmuted grade will be 99. Similarly, an initial grade of 85.60 – 87.19 corresponds to a transm...
