2024 Top and Bottom Functional Literacy Philippines

 

Hmmm. What are the admins, teachers, students, and parents doing right in Benguet and Apayao to merit top functional literacy in the country? Is it partly because Cordillerans and those living in the Cordilleras are culturally more respectful and obedient to parents and authority as we call all adults our uncles and aunties? We are also proud of our teachers and administrators, both active and retired, who, day in and day out are just in the classrooms doing their job of teaching. Makita ta amin nga kabatch ko ket nalalaeng agbasa ken umawat. Ada met siyempre sanger ken natatangken ulo ngem sumsumrek latta.

Cavite is top 10. I wonder why. Could it be related to what we have been hearing from friends, like ranking and hiring teachers in public schools is smoother and faster there?
