ENHANCED
SCHOOL
IMPROVEMENT
PLAN
School Year 2019-2022
The great thing in this world is not so much where we are, but in what direction we
are moving on (OW Holmes). Yes, indeed, Apalan Elementary School is geared towards moving on
to a higher level of quality, equitable, culture-based and complete basic education through the actual
implementation of the School Improvement Plan.
Furthermore, Apalan Elementary School like some other schools has been trying to provide
the best of the 21st century education to its learners. We see the Enhanced School Improvement
Plan (ESIP) as our opportunity and of high significance to effectively address the needs or demands
of our learners, our teachers, our school, the community, and the department.
We believe that through SIP, it will enable us translate the Department of Education and
Apalan Elementary School’s vision, mission, goals and objectives into tangible results because (1)
we can lessen the learners’ challenges in learning for example the need to have a decent
classroom, (2) we can increase teacher’s productivity by the decrease on learners’ challenges in
school which means we can actively participate in all or most of the seminars or programs
conducted by the DepEd, LGU, and private organizations, (3) we can strengthen community
relationships for example with the parents of our learners, the barangay officials, and the like. All
these contribute to a productive school which can be considered as learner-centered, teacher-
centered, involved with the community, and compliant with the DepEd 21st century education
standards.
With the collaborative effort of the School Planning Team, guided by steps in Deped Order
N.44, s. 2015, problems were determined one by one leading to distinguish the Gap, PIA, Root
Cause, and providing varied solutions to address its needs, yet the realization of the said PIA’s and
the success of this enhanced SIP would significantly depend on the continuous support of external
stakeholders, thus, the school faculty is unceasingly inviting and appealing to the mentioned
stakeholders for the accomplishment of this undertaking.
With all these things, my heartfelt gratitude to the School Planning Team (SPT), Project
Team (PT), parents, teachers, pupils, and the community for the collaborative effort in the creation
of this School Improvement Plan which will guide us towards the realization of our goals. It is our
fervent hope to continually improve the academic programs, and create a much safer place for our
schoolchildren and an inspiring area for learning that will prepare them in real life’s voyage.

CHAPTER 4: ACT
Further, in observance of the Department’s Core Values, Apalan Elementary School observes
being “Maka-Diyos” in allowing its learners to exercise their faith with freedom and sincerity. Being
“Maka-tao” in the promotion and possession of respect to different people of different backgrounds
(socioeconomic status, religion, ethnicity, etc.). Being “Makakalikasan” in the participation to
environmental programs or activities crafted by the DepEd, LGU, or private organizations. Being
“Makabansa” in the practice of being “Makadiyos”, “Makatao”, and being “Makakalikasan”. All these
values equip the school and the community in the fulfillment of the DepEd’s Vision and Mission by
the transformation of the learners reinforced and practiced by their teachers.
The School – Community Planning Team is cognizant of the many challenges it entails towards
its realization, but with the full support, cooperation and right attitude towards their roles and
responsibilities, success is at hand. The team will work hand in hand to execute the solutions
formulated and implement projects that will resolve each PIA so as to completely realize the
school’s dreams and aspirations. The team will ensure full commitment and collaboration with
regards to the planning, implementing and monitoring of the projects formulated because the team
believes that ”Cooperation is the thorough conviction that nobody can get there unless everybody
gets there, no one should be left behind”, (Virginia Burden).

2. A. School’s Current Situation
Apalan Elementary School is located along the highway and a few meters away from the
coastline. It was founded in the year 1938 with a land area of 8,775.36 square meters with a Deed
of Donation and Tax Declaration.
The Learner-Classroom ratio is 45:1, there are four functioning toilets, with a ratio of 80:1
for male while 77:1 for female, as reflected, the school needs to construct additional comfort rooms
for proper sanitation. Further, the school has an unfinished perimeter fence prompting stray animals
to enter and guzzle in the plants. Additionally, school stage is dilapidated and needs major repair.
The school environment also has to improve its physical appearance through school beautification
like landscaping and construction of plant boxes so as to make it attractive and appealing, in a way
that will encourage the learners to come to school regularly.
Recently, there are eight nationally-funded teachers with a Teacher-Learner ratio of 40:1
and a school principal managing the school. Each is given the opportunity to grow professionally
The nutritional status of pupils plays a vital role in their learning abilities. Proper health and
nutrition comes along with pupil’s performance. At the moment the school met the Division Target of
zero malnourished pupils. The school has a functioning hand washing facilities available for
learners’ use.
For the past 3 years, the school had significantly increased its enrolment greater than 5%
which is a manifestation of good relation of the school to the community and due to the community’s
increasing population. On the contrary, as reflected in the school report card, prevalence of dropout
and repetition rate had been greater than 2% for the past three years. Learners’ at Risk of Dropping
Out (LARDOs’) where then identified.
As to academics, the team found out that English literacy rate based on Phil-IRI GST result
for frustration readers were 11% or 12 out of 109 learners. Moreover, based on EGMA result, for
Grades 1-3 learners, 134 out of 134 were non-numerates. A huge and pressing problem the school
is facing at the moment. Meanwhile, as seen on Table 4, NAT result in five subjects were very
behind as to the Division Target is concerned, such occurrences require immediate attention that
will respond into its immediate need.
With the identified gaps, the SPT hopes to address the challenges one by one through
careful planning, digging out its root causes, and brainstorming of possible solutions leading to the
implementation of the project.

As reflected in Table 4, NAT MPS in five subjects should increase by 75% for year one and
so in the following years. With regards to literacy rate in English for grades 1-4 as well as the
numeracy rate in grades 1-3 the school together with the SPT and PT should immediately plan out
actions that will decrease the number of frustration readers and non-numerates in order to produce
quality learners.
2. D. Planning Worksheet
Planning is a crucial and fundamental tool in achieving the organization’s goal and
objectives. It navigates us to the right track and serves as roadmap which keeps us on course.
Careful and right planning prevents unnecessary detouring which leads us to wasteful spending of
time and resources.
Table 5 displays the different root causes that will bridge into finding the right solution of the
different priority improvement areas. Digging out the root causes is a must to determine the reasons
behind, thus formulating the exact projects to be employed. The SPT together with the PT will
implement the projects seriously to support the Division’s overall performance.
The illustration displays that there are varied hindering factors affecting Low NAT MPS,
these involves materials and equipment, people, process and procedure and the environment as
well. With the identified root causes, the School Project Team will formulate accurate and immediate
solutions to resolve the problem.
Illustration 2 indicates the need to create a system on effective supervision and monitoring
on teaching-learning process so as to give solution on Low NAT MPS.
Illustration 4 shows the different CIGP’s that result to the low English literacy rate of the
Grades 4-6 learners. Varied hindering factors were identified and were categorized as such:
materials and equipment, people, process/procedure & program, and environment, all these
contributed to decreasing English literacy skills of the pupils.
As reflected on illustration 5, the school should provide programs enabling the teachers to
enhance their skills in teaching English literacy among pupils. Low comprehension of the learners
during Group Screening Test in PHIL-IRI resulted to the inability of pupils to answer questions given
may it be in LOTS and much more in HOTS.
Depicted in illustration 6 is the failure of the school to monitor the quality and accuracy of
the process during the conduct of GST in PHIL-IRI that led to the low literacy rate in English of
Grades 4-6 learners. Other causes were inappropriate teaching strategies, lack of school head
supervision and the incapacity of the pupils to answer HOTS questions.

Illustration 7 reflects the varied reasons that causes low numeracy skills among the pupils
during the conduct of EGMA. Rigid monitoring, intervention and implementation of projects are very
essential in order to decrease the number of non-numerates in Grades 1-3.
Illustration 8 reveals the root cause of the low numeracy rate of Grades 1-3, wherein the
teachers lack of appropriate knowledge on effective methods and strategies in teaching Math should
be addressed in order to solve the pressing problem which causes low numeracy rate in Math.

Illustration 9 clearly shows that a lot of impeding factors were identified causing low
numeracy rate in Grades 1-3 learners. Teachers should improve their teaching strategies
and assess its effectiveness. Further, differentiated activities should be applied since learners vary
in their learning styles. School heads on the other hand must have proper supervision in order to
give technical assistance when necessary.
