| Madrasah Principals and teachers from conflict-affected Madaris throughout ARMM participate in a role-play session during the Tahderiyyah Curriculum Training on 18 June 2013 in Cotabato City. |
These Madaris
will implement the Refined Standard Madrasah Curriculum (RSMC), which paves the
way to their recognition as educational institutions by DepED, resulting in
increased educational opportunities for children and additional training and
resources for the madrasah.
The BEAM-ARMM
Program, DepED-ARMM’s Bureau of Madaris Education (BME), UNICEF, and the
Bangsamoro Development Agency (BDA), teamed to provide 149 Principals and
teachers with training on the Tahderriyah Curriculum in Cotabato City. The use
of the curriculum will equip the asatidz/teachers with the necessary knowledge
and skills to provide a more innovative learning experience to children and
provide culturally sensitive quality education. This training allows the
madaris to offer a kindergarten class this school year (2013-2014), aligned with
the K+12 program of DepED. Additionally, they will be able to access financial
assistance under the madrasah program, as authorized by DepED Order No. 81, s.
2007.
The training
included studying the fundamentals of child development, translating learning
competencies into classroom instruction and participate in hands-on activities,
and experiencing the different learning blocks (daily schedules) of the
Tahderiyyah Curriculum. Among the participants were the principals of the
different madaris and DepED Madrasah Coordinators, who will provide the
necessary post-training coaching to their teachers to ensure the successful
implementation of the curriculum.
