SCHOOL PARTNERS AND LINKAGES

A. Rationale
One of the goals of the K-12 Basic Education Program is to develop students
who have the relevant knowledge, competencies, and values to pursue
further education and training or to enter the world of work through
employment or entrepreneurship. To achieve this goal, the school needs to
establish partnerships for work immersion opportunities for its students,
teacher training, use of facilities, and additional resources. Through these
guidelines, the school hopes to assist and enable department and school
officials to develop effective productive partnerships.
