Search on for excellence in schools

MANILA, Philippines - Bayan Academy, Rex Book Store and The Knowledge Channel, leaders in promoting quality education in the Philippines, are searching for the country’s most transformative schools. The 3rd Excellence in Educational Transformation Awards (EETA) is accepting entries until Nov. 30 from all elementary and secondary schools, both public and private, which have introduced meaningful and beneficial innovations in their schools.

“In the past two years, schools that have transformed their scholastic environments, uplifted their teaching standards and motivated their students to accomplish beyond expectations were cited by the EETA. Past EETA winners have become shining examples of how it is possible to transform a school from good to great even amidst challenges and impediments,” said Eduardo Morato of Bayan Academy.

More than P2 million in combined cash prizes will be awarded to seven schools in various categories. More than the cash prize, the EETA pays tribute to the best practices and educational techniques that are worth sharing with other schools. The EETA winners will serve as a beacon of hope and inspiration to schools striving to improve their learning environments.
