INTRODUCTION

1.1 Background

Quality Assurance and Accountability (QAA) has been given attention in the Department of Education through its
package of policy reforms known as Basic Education Sector Reform Agenda (BESRA). QAA is considered a
significant part of its Key Reform Thrust 3 (Support for Learning Strategies and Quality Assurance) and was sown to
the field with the creation of the Quality Assurance and Accountability Framework (QAAF) 1. This is the national
roadmap drawn for instilling a culture of quality in all management systems in order to achieve the desired outcomes
for its learners, the success indicators being Access, Retention, Completion and Achievement. The framework was
made operational in the field through the establishment of the Quality Assurance and Accountability System 2 that
identifies the integration of systems and processes to bring about quality.

To further reinforce and accelerate the institutionalization of QAA, the department has deemed it proper to regard it as
a separate KRT 43 together with Monitoring and Evaluation as the integral mechanism for its implementation in the
field. The crafting of this handbook is an essential step towards engaging the schools adopt an M&E system through
which its stakeholders will have a means of ensuring quality in the implementation of its improvement plan in order to
achieve its goals and objectives for the learners as well as for its growth as a learning organization.

1.2 Purpose of the Handbook

This handbook aims to put on view a standard Monitoring and Evaluation System at the school level as an operational
mechanism for embedding the culture of quality. It intends to provide clear procedures, guidelines, tools and structure
following a monitoring and evaluation framework appropriate to the context of schools. It serves as a guide to
efficiently and effectively monitor and evaluate the school operations to obtain information particularly on how basic
services are being rendered through its programs and projects and on how the school is being managed for its
continuous improvement.

1.3 Users of the Handbook

Primarily, the users of this manual are:

 School Heads to be guided on how to properly set up and manage a functional M&E system.

 School Quality Management Team (SQMTs) comprised of the school head as the Chair, teachers, parent and
LGU representatives, whose function is to ensure that inputs, processes, outputs and outcomes of the school
are at par with quality standards and targets set.

 School M&E Team – being part of the SQMT must be guided on how to obtain the necessary information that
will assist the School Head and the teachers in making decisions for adjusting their SIP and their
implementation strategies

CHAPTER 2
MONITORING and EVALUATION FRAMEWORK at the SCHOOL LEVEL

2.1 ASSUMPTIONS

Definition of M & E

The development of the M&E framework requires a clear and shared definition of monitoring and evaluation.

Monitoring is the continuing and systematic process of collecting, analyzing, interpreting and reporting information
relevant to planning, implementation, evaluation and adjustment of school plans, policy, programs and projects in
support of decision making of management and key stakeholders to improve delivery of outputs and sustainability of
results.

Evaluation is the process of determining the worth or significance of the outputs and results in terms of: efficiency,
effectiveness and sustainability consistent to the school goals and objectives set. This includes establishing the
accomplishment of School Improvement Plan-Annual Implementation Plan (SIP-AIP) objectives and the over-all
contribution of the school to Division Education Plan (DEDP targets of the schools division where it belongs, to the
Regional Education Development Plan (REDP) targets, and the national targets embodied in the EFA framework, the
BESRA Implementation Plan and the Performance Governance System (PGS) score card.

Purpose and Objectives of M & E

M&E in schools aims to provide objective information that can inform decision-making in order to continuously
improve the delivery of school services for basic education and the school’s performance or health to achieve the
desired education outcomes. M&E in schools aims to provide valid, reliable and accurate data in decision-
making to come up with possible actions and interventions to achieve the desired education outcomes.

Five specific operational objectives are identified in support of the overall purpose of M&E in the school:

OBJECTIVES:

1. Provide the school management and stakeholders information on the implementation of the curricular programs
and projects as basis for continuously improving their relevance, efficiency and effectiveness

2. Provide information for school management to determine and adjust approaches and strategies that will ensure
adequacy, equitable distribution, accessibility, and effective and optimal use of the resources of the school

3. Establish information as basis for determining appropriate approach / strategy to improve teaching-learning
competencies of teachers to ensure efficient and effective delivery of instruction, classroom management, and
their personal growth and professional development

4. Present information regarding learner performance to the school management that will support decisions and
adjustments to plans and strategies to improve the learners’ academic achievement, school attendance, and
participation in co-curricular activities.

5. Provide information for school management to review and sustain the strategies that can improve the school’s
health or performance through:

3
 Efficient school-based management
 Productivity of the teaching and non-teaching staff
 Strengthening partnership with the community

Underlying Principles

The development of the Monitoring and Evaluation Framework for the school is to be guided by the following
principles:

a. Quality Information
It is important that M&E information to be collected is appropriate, sufficient and accurate to insure reliable and
objective reports that can be used as bases for planning and decision-making at all levels.
b. Systems Strengthening
Strategies, processes, and tools to be used for M&E can make use of available systems that have been tried and
effectively used in the department. . (available and established mechanism)
c. Efficiency
Results are achieved with minimum input resources but not compromising quality in all levels and stages of M&E.
This includes the ability to report on target sub-groups in a timely manner. (Efficiency in general describes the
extent to which time or effort is well used for the intended task or purpose in the production of desired goals
and outputs.)
d. Transparency of Information to Key Stakeholders
M&E subscribes to open, full and credible information. It encourages timely disclosure of information and
methodology to stakeholders which are aligned to M&E objectives and processes.
e. Synergy
M&E encourages participative and collaborative decision-making processes among the different entities for an
integrated approach to the attainment of its objectives.
f. M&E for Learning and Accountability
M&E provides opportunities for continuous improvement of practices/performance through identification of issues
and lessons learned. It requires trustworthy, competent and impartial M&E staff.
g. Focus
M&E calls for careful planning and purposive prioritization of activities guided by the school goals and objectives.
“Change does not happen by accident.” The school is a key instrument to implement that change.

2.2 SCOPE OF M&E

M&E Content Areas

M&E of the school is designed to obtain and provide information on content areas that have been derived from the
stakeholders’ major areas of interests. There are two major focal areas where decisions need to be made: Delivery
of Services for Basic Education and Organizational Health/Performance.

Curricular Programs & Projects

Education Resources
Delivery of Services for Basic Educatio EduEducation

Teacher Performance

School Learner Performance

Figure 1: M & E Content Areas of Schools

A. Delivery of Services for Basic Education

There are two sub-areas under Delivery of Services: Implementation of curricular programs and projects and
Education resources in support of these programs.

A.1. Curricular Programs and Projects - concerned with obtaining information on the efficiency and effectiveness
of the implementation of curriculum programs and projects which is the core business of schools. This is
of paramount interest particularly to the internal stakeholders of the school: the school head, teachers and
parents.
A.2. Education Resources - concerned with accessibility, adequacy, equitable distribution, and maintenance of
resources required to efficiently deliver basic education. M&E of school resources would include
ascertaining the optimal application/utilization of the following (but not limited to):
 Funding requirements for school operations (MOOE and other sources)
 Number of Teachers
 Learning and instructional materials/resources (textbooks, manuals, learning equipment, etc.)

5
 Physical and ancillary facilities

A.3. Teacher Performance – concerned with monitoring and evaluating teaching-learning practices of teachers,
particularly on the following:

 Instructional Delivery
 Utilization of instructional materials
 Classroom and Record Management
 Involvement in school-community activities
 Personal growth and professional development

A.4. Learner Performance – concerned with getting information on the learners’:


 school attendance,
 academic achievement
 participation in co-curricular activities

B. Organizational Health and Performance


Organizational health and performance involves monitoring how the school is progressing as an
organization toward accomplishing its goals, and monitoring the contribution of its members.

B.1. School Management – focused on monitoring and evaluating the efficiency and effectiveness of the
implementation of plans for school improvement. Specifically, it is concerned with the following:

 SIP Implementation
 Instructional Supervision
 Staff Development
B.2. Productivity – concerned with the work outputs of the individuals based on their specific job descriptions,
i.e., support staff, utility. This may also be concerned with team or committee outputs based on their
terms and reference, i.e., SGC, PTA, SQMT, SIPIT, SPT, Special Program Committees, PGO/SSG, etc.
B.3. Community Partnership - focused on how school stakeholders are engaged in school activities including its
level and quality of participation, e.g. parents, LGU, NGOs, alumni, etc. It is also concerned with the level
of school’s participation in community-initiated activities.

M&E Task Levels

The M & E task levels are influenced by the areas of interest of the school stakeholder’s and their reporting
requirements as suggested by when data/indicator is likely to occur in the implementation process. Hierarchical
organization of M&E is as follows: (a) Progress (formative), and (b) Results (summative) levels. See Figure 2

The main concern of Progress M&E would be the monitoring of input and/or output indicators while Results M&E will
examine the extent in which the school is achieving Intermediate Results (i.e. progress towards the desired /
established goals) and the actual outcomes, benefits and impact of implementing a full cycle of the School
Improvement Plan (SIP) or any plan the school has developed for a given period.

Detailed M&E Task levels are described as follows:

6
Progress (Formative) Level

“Are the needed resources available and adequate to implement efficiently and effectively the school’s programs and
projects as planned?”

“Are the programs and projects delivered efficiently and effectively as planned?”

a. Input Level - This level is concerned with tracking the resources required to implement the school programs and
projects on provision of access, quality and relevance, and school management and administration. It should be
able to provide information on their adequacy, accessibility or availability in terms of financial, physical, and
human resources.
b. Output Level – The output level looks into the efficiency and effectiveness of the delivery of the intended services
of the school in terms of its programs and projects and the implementation strategies used. It also scans the
circumstances influencing implementation positively or negatively (i.e. issues) with the end in mind of being able
to improve delivery of school education services.

Results (Summative) Level

“How effective are the school’s initiatives in bringing about the desired benefits and changes to their learners and
teachers and in attaining the intended education outcomes?

c. Intermediate Results Level – This level captures the initial gains of the school in moving towards its intended
directions. They can be in terms of behavioral changes among its staff or the desired increasing or decreasing
trend in its outcome indicators during the implementation period of its School Improvement Plan. M&E. At this
level, it also aims to accumulate lessons learned and promising practices for replication/institutionalization.
d. Results Level - At this level, M&E concerns are directed towards capturing the accomplishments of SIP in terms
of attaining the education outcome indicators and its collective contribution to the attainment of regional and
national goals (i.e., EFA, BESRA/BIAP, and PGS).

CHAPTER 3
SETTING UP SCHOOL M&E SYSTEM

3.1 Steps in Setting Up the M & E System

The school M & E System can be set up at the start of the school year or at the start of implementation of any
programs and projects whether it is initiated by the school, division, region or from the CO. Ideally, for SIP
implementation, the School M & E System is set up during the startup stage when the school is preparing to implement
a new SIP for the next three years. In case of an already existing M & E, the school may want to review and enhance
its existing system especially the performance measures, M & E strategies, tools and techniques. (M&E structure is
also to be considered if necessary.)

The five step process in setting up the M & E system involves the following:

1. Define the scope of the M & E

The most important step in setting up the M & E system is to clarify and define the scope of the M & E. This
involves clarifying the objectives and targets of the school, defining the success indicators and performance
measures. Specifically, it must answer the following questions:
a. What are the outcomes the school wanted to achieve?
b. What are the programs and projects it intends to deliver? How many and when?
c. What are the resources needed to implement the program and projects?
Specific for SIP implementation, the following step processes should be considered:
a. Review and finalize the SIP including the objectives and targets
b. Define the performance measures.
(Performance measure is composed of a number and a unit of measure. The number provides
the magnitude (how much) and the unit of measure gives what is being quantified).
2. Establish M & E schedule.
 Set up the schedule for conducting progress M&E ( monthly and quarterly) for the content
areas, the results M&E through the annual implementation review and the post implementation
review for evaluation and adjustment at the end of SIP cycle.
3. Determine decision points needed by the school head/s.
 Decision making requirements of stakeholders as suggested in the framework
For the school where M & E already exists, the following should be considered:
 Unaccomplished target
 Issues and concerns on programs and projects implementation
 Hindering & facilitating factors
 Lessons learned
 Promising practices
 Sustainability strategies
 Recommendations
 Technical support needed by the school
4. Set up monitoring processes
 Define the M&E activities
 Identify reports (needed/required reports)
 Prepare TOR of School M&E Team
5. Communicate the system
 Kick off meeting for the staff and the M & E Team to be aware of the scope, management
reviews, information requirements and the operating details of the M & E.

6. Operationalize the system


 Implementation of M & E activities according to schedule

This section provides the details of the monitoring and evaluation procedures for the different M&E content areas in schools.
For every content area the following are given:
 Description of the content area - this describes the focus of the content area in terms of decisions needed to be
done by the school.
 M&E Processes – include M&E questions, information requirements, source of information and data required,
methods of analysis and guide questions for interpretation. These elements are specified for every content area at
every M&E levels:
o Progress level
o Intermediate results level
o Results level
 M&E Tools- these are the instruments to be used by the School M&E Team in collecting or capturing data.

4.1 Content Area 1: Delivery of Basic Education

Delivery of basic education services to the learners is the sole function of the school and the main reason why it exists.
Thus, monitoring and evaluating this content area is a vital process at the school level.

The process allows the SQMT to assess on a macro level the efficiency & effectiveness in the implementation of
curricular programs and projects. This also provides a total picture of the school in terms of availability, appropriateness
and utilization of educational resources as a support to the delivery of basic education services.

This area further includes monitoring of teachers’ performance in terms of how they undertake teaching-learning
activities. Eventually, learners’ performance is ultimately zeroed in to find out how effective the programs and projects
have been implemented.

4.1.1 Curricular Programs and Projects

Primarily, the basic education curriculum for elementary and secondary is monitored to find out whether its
implementation follows the national and regional standards. Along with this, the implementation of curriculum-
related programs and projects are also accounted for to find out how they contribute to the enhancement of the
curriculum.

4.1.2 Education Resources


Education resources are provided to schools from various sources in different forms to support the delivery of basic
education. Monitoring and evaluation in this area is focused on the availability, appropriateness and status of utilization
whether they really contribute to the improvement of teaching-learning processes and the realization of education
outcomes.
his provides information on how efficient is the school in using the school facilities, instructional materials, to upgrade
school resources in order to meet the demands of learners and for teachers to access up-to-date facilities and equipment.
Specifically, the process of monitoring and evaluation provides information on the following:

 School’s expenses versus budget which involves monitoring the school’s fund generation, mobilization and
management of its financial resources vis a vis the resources outlined in school operating budget plan.
 Adequacy and timeliness of the distribution and utilization of generated funds.

16
 Acquired learning resources versus targets as indicated in the plan, particularly on the number of learning
resources, e.g., textbooks, teachers’ manual, learning equipment, etc. attained versus the targeted number.
 Constructed school facilities, e.g., classrooms, science laboratory, canteen, comfort rooms, etc. against
targeted/planned.
 Acquired ICT equipment, e.g., computer, laptop, LCD projector, television, etc. vis a vis targeted/planned.
 Hired personnel, both teaching and non-teaching against required number as planned.

4.1.4 Learners Performance

With functional literacy as the goal of basic education, the learners are expected to attain quality learning outcomes.
Their outputs basically include acquiring the desired learning competencies as well as developing a sense of
responsibility and accountability. Monitoring learner performance particularly on academic achievement, school
attendance and participation to school and community activities provides timely and important information about the
improvement in the competencies of the learners. Specifically, the information generated from this process would
facilitate and allow the School Planning Team headed by the school head to perform the following:

 Customize or adjust school programs and projects according to the pacing of the learners. Learning needs and
requirements of fast learners, average learners and slow learners are met.
 Identify potential problems and/ or learners who are at-risk of dropping out and its corresponding appropriate
interventions
 Provide status report or profile on the performance of each learner.

In particular, monitoring learner performance to be done in two phases- progress monitoring and result monitoring,
involves the following processes:

1. Tracking of learners academic achievement

This is a process designed to monitor the progress of the learners in terms of their performance in quarterly
examinations and during the national and regional assessments. Information about the learners’ academic
performance will provide vital information on the relevance and responsiveness of the programs and projects.

2. Monitoring attendance of learners

This process provides information on the continuous engagement of learners in the different organized learning
activities within a scheduled program in a school year. Apparently, learners who regularly attend class sessions
have greater chances of acquiring the desired learning competencies and of completing the school requirements
within the prescribed period. It is expected that all learners will have 100 per cent attendance for the entire school
year.

3. Tracking active participation of the learners

Active participation in co-curricular activities provides the learners means to cultivate their talents and develop
their sense of commitment, responsibility and accountability. Learners can explore their interests in music, dance,
sports, arts and culture, science explorations, community projects and the like. This can also be carried out by
participating in community services whereby the learners can openly share their time and resources for the good
of their school and communities. What can facilitate this process is the Integration of co-curricular activities in the
school curriculum.

4.2. Content Area 2: Organizational Health/Performance

26
Monitoring the performance of the school at the macro level carries on track the implementation status of the entire
school programs and projects. This process provides objective and relevant information of the school as an
organization relative to the quality & efficiency of school management. This will also provide information on the level of
productivity and community partnership existing in the school.

4.2.1 School Management

4.2.1.1 SIP Implementation


In this process, the school is able to compare actual accomplishments versus targets in its SIP, its hindering
and facilitating factors, lessons learned & good practices. Information derived will aid in its further refinement,
plan adjustment and for planning and provision of technical assistance at the higher managerial levels.
Specifically, this gives information on the school’s accomplishment, both qualitative and quantitative, which can
be attributed to or which can advance the school’s level of SBM practice.

4.2.1.2 Instructional Supervision


This area of M&E is primarily concerned with the efficiency and effectiveness of Instructional Supervision as a
technical support mechanism for teachers as the most important resource in the school. Information gathered
will be the basis for the provision of technical assistance for the continuing professional development of School
Heads especially in determining appropriate instructional supervisory strategies and tools

4.2.1.3 Staff Development


Human resource has a vital impact on the performance of the school. Aside from the teaching personnel, non
teaching personnel are hired to assist in the operation of the school, be it administrative or technical. Staff
development is designed for personal and career advancement of every staff/member of the school
community. Specifically, this focuses on the enrichment of skills, knowledge and attitude needed to perform
the task assigned to them. Thus, monitoring and evaluation of this area will provide an information whether the
capability building program implemented are properly and timely utilized resulting to the attainment of the
desired performance.

4.2.2 Productivity of School Personnel

Basically, the performance of every member or committee in an organization should contribute to the accomplishment
of the school goals and objectives. Thus, in school, monitoring and evaluation of the work accomplishment of the
different stakeholders must be taken into consideration. This process will provide information on the extent or level of
work satisfaction of internal stakeholders.

CHAPTER 5
REPORTING

5.1 Reporting Schedules

Since the stakeholders use the M & E results for their respective purposes, the reporting schedules are informed
by their need for information.

1. For progress monitoring, Monthly and Quarterly reports have to be submitted to concerned stakeholders on
the first week of the following month or quarter. The process of monitoring until reporting will cover about 30
days or 5 weeks of each quarter.

2. Intermediate results will be reported after every end of school year. The reports are mainly consolidation of
data from the progress report on Physical Outputs accomplishments on SIP/AIP implementation including
Physical outputs balance and the reasons for balance, value added outputs, issues and concerns, lessons
learned from facilitating and hindering factors, sustainability measures, and recommendations.

3. Results monitoring is scheduled towards the end of Year 3 of SIP Implementation and is due on the second
week after the School Year ended. Consolidated data for the 3-year SIP/AIP Implementation Report on
Quantitative (Physical Outputs) & Qualitative Data (issues, lessons learned, facilitating & hindering factors,
resultant outputs, & recommendations) including the slippage/backlogs which will be an input to the next SIP
cycle. The report also includes comparative data on school performance indicators showing:

 Improved Retention Rate –


a. Reduced incidence of repetition in first three grades
b. Improvement in the number of school leavers retrieved by the primary and secondary school system.
 Reduction of Dropouts
 Increased Completion Rate –
a. Increased Elementary pupils ready for secondary schooling
b. Improved transition from elementary to high school
 Improved Achievement Rate –
a. Increased number of Grade 3 pupils demonstrating the basic literacy competencies in reading and
Writing.
b. Increased number of Grade 6 pupils demonstrating the desired competencies as evidenced by the
NAT/RAT results.
c. Improved achievement of 2nd year high school learners. This includes improved performance in
Math, Science, English
d. Increased number of 4th year high school learners with average and above average performance in

 Identify for each output, the information that will tell the achievement of
2 Indicator/s project objective. This is a qualified/quantified parameter which details the
extent to which an objective has been achieved
 Identify the source where the measure of the attainment of objectives can
be obtained (ex. BEIS, Teacher observation /performance report, SARDO
3 Data Source
Monitoring Form, OSY Tracking system, child health and nutrition chart,
etc.)
 Indicate the strategy that will be employed to collect the data (ex.,
4 Method of Collection Document review, interview, direct observation, survey questionnaire, FGD,
etc.)

SUSTAINABILITY MEASURES ACTION TAKEN TO
RESULT OF STRATEGY
APPLY STRATEGY
1. Fit w/in partner govt policies
 Objectives and activities which “fit” with Partner Government policies have
much better prospect for sustainability as they are more likely to have high-
level political and institutional support both during implementation and
beyond.
2. Participation
 The critical factor in promoting sustainability is the role of the stakeholders;
i.e. those directly concerned with the program or project. Sustainability
cannot be achieved without their involvement and support.
 Ideas are demand-led
 Stakeholders, both men and women should actively participate and have
the opportunity to influence the direction and detail of implementation.
 Time and resources are available for participatory analysis.
3. Management & Organization
 Integrate with and build on local management structures.
 Work with counterparts who are existing in school
 Teamwork approaches are emphasized.
 Permit some flexibility in implementation as lessons are learned
4. Integrate & Build on Govt Operations & Processes
 Activities should integrate with and build on existing government
operations, processes systems and performance monitoring wherever
possible.
 Use available information sources wherever possible. This not only builds
on existing processes so that capacity building has a better chance of
being sustained post-project but also minimizes workload and demand on
stakeholders in providing information
5. Counterpart Contribution
 Counterpart contributions, either in cash or in kind (like counterpart staff
and office space) are a sign of commitment and demonstrate in a tangible
way, that partners place value on the expected benefits.

6. Training
 The provision of appropriate training for identified target groups is a key
strategy for achieving sustainable benefits.
 Effective training should not only “educate” but also motivate.
 Trainees must be selected on merit and include both men and women.
 Trainees must be given the opportunity to apply newly acquired skills on
completion of training.
7. Information dissemination & Networking
 Generating an understanding of SIP and support for the project’s

SUSTAINABILITY MEASURES ACTION TAKEN TO
RESULT OF STRATEGY
APPLY STRATEGY
objectives among a wide group of stakeholders should be a component of
any sustainability strategy. It can include the use of many types of different
media and group events.
8. Technology
 To promote sustainability the technology to be transferred must be selected
on the basis of its appropriateness in terms of technical and financial
criteria, plus social, gender and cultural acceptability. Training to support
the introduction of any new technology should be relevant and appropriate.
9. Social, Gender & Culture
 Development interventions can fail to deliver sustainable benefits if social,
gender and cultural issues are not taken into account. A greater
participation by girls in identification, design and decision-making is a key
part of any sustainable strategy
10. External Political & Economic factor
11. Anti-Fraud & Corrupt Strategy
