Classroom PPPs need safeguards

Manila Bulletin

|

August 26, 2025

State-run think tank Philippine Institute for Development Studies (PIDS) has recommended the inclusion of stricter safeguards for public-private partnership (PPP) projects under a Senate bill (SB) seeking to accelerate classroom construction nationwide.

In an Aug. 18 comment on Senate Bill No. 121, or the proposed Classroom-Building Acceleration Program (CAP) Act authored by Sen. Paolo Benigno “Bam” Aquino, PIDS senior research fellow Michael Ralph M. Abrigo said the measure should draw from lessons of past education infrastructure programs to ensure sustainable and accountable delivery.

The bill aims to tap local government units (LGUs) and private-sector partners in addressing the country’s classroom backlog, estimated at more than 165,000, through funding support from the Department of Education (DepEd), national government (NG) appropriations, and PPP arrangements.
