DepEd: P1,000 monthly allowance for students fake news
The Philippine Star
|July 07, 2025
The Department of Education (DepEd) denied reports circulating on social media that all students would receive a P1,000 monthly allowance while junior and senior high school (SHS) students would be required to undergo a weekly alcohol test.
"The DepEd reminds the public again to be more careful and vigilant of information posted online. Fight fake news and misinformation," DepEd said in a post on its Facebook page.
It also advised the public to visit the official social media accounts of DepEd to be advised of legitimate announcements and information on basic education.
It was only last week when Batangas Rep. Leandro Leviste filed House Bill 27 that seeks to provide a P1,000 monthly allowance to cover a student's food, transportation and school supplies expenses.
He also said that the government would have to allocate P300 billion yearly for this program.
