In a statement, DepEd announced the launch of the “Paaralang Bukas Dashboard” — a transparency portal that will give the public a “clear view of school performance and needs.”

“Ang datos ng ating mga paaralan ay dapat makita ng lahat, para sama-sama tayong makahanap ng solusyon at magbukas ng mas maraming oportunidad para sa Kabataan (The data from our schools should be visible to everyone, so that together we can find solutions and open up more opportunities for the youth),” DepEd Secretary Sonny Angara said.
