Eto yung mga may less than four classrooms,  walang kuryente, walang pondo for repair at no construction projects for the last four years.”

“We will be assisting in the establishment of health promotion programs in these LMES and will provide an avenue for population-based health interventions, age-appropriate health education, and implementation of health-promoting policies to improve the development of health literacy and behavior among Filipino learners’,” Sydiongco emphasized.

Healthy Learning Institutions (HLI) are schools that promote the health and well-being of their learners and personnel in line with the six (6) pillars of the DOH’s Health Promotion Framework Strategies (HPFS) Initiative for mobilizing school health promotion and education activities namely healthy public policy, physical school environment, social school environment. links with the community, health skills and education, and access to health care.

“We have a responsibility to ensure that school environments are the best they can be and the health and well-being of learners are prioritized and well taken care of. And we can achieve this by establishing health-promoting schools, which are a means of organizing and linking all the crucial components which shape their health,” she added.

The fund will be given to the provincial government of Ilocos Sur which will lead in the implementation of HLI programs in 30 identified LMES together with DepEd Schools Division Office and local government units.
