The Department of Education (DepEd) has released the implementing guidelines for the P100-million Bayang Bumabasa Fund, formally opening applications for 131 priority public schools identified as needing urgent literacy support.
In a statement issued on December 23, DepEd said the guidelines are contained in DepEd Memorandum No. 111, s. 2025, issued through the Literacy Coordinating Council (LCC) following the nationwide rollout of the Bayang Bumabasa Initiative (BBI).
Under the program, each eligible school may receive up to P1 million in Needs-Based Program Support Funds (PSF) to support targeted literacy interventions for learners in Grades 1 to 3. The priority schools were identified using results from the Comprehensive Rapid Literacy Assessment (CRLA).
