Education Secretary Sonny Angara pushes for the public release of school-level education data, dubbed as the “Paaralang Bukas Dashboard,” to empower parents, teachers, local governments, and civil society with deeper insights into the state of learning across the country.

According to the Department of Education (DepEd) the Paaralang Bukas Dashboard is a nationwide data transparency portal designed to bridge government investments in education with active citizen participation.

“This is more than just a database,” Angara said. “It’s a tool for collective problem-solving and opportunity-building for our youth. School data should be visible to all.”
