The Office of Curriculum and Instruction (CI), through the Bureau of Curriculum Development (BCD), issues this document as basis for the Implementation of the Homeroom Guidance (HG) during Crisis Situation for SY 2021-2022. This document is a revision of the policy guidelines previously issued (DM-OUCI-2021-144 and DM-OUCI-2020-155).
The current pandemic has clearly affected the teaching and learning process that usually takes place in school. Certainly, our learners cannot avoid its impact in terms of their domains of
development. While the Department has been responsive thru its Basic Education Learning Continuity Plan, it is crucial to cater to the life skills development of learners which will empower them to overcome the different challenges and adapt to the “new normal” brought about by the current crisis.
Though the plan was to have the complete implementation of the Homeroom Guidance in school year 2021-2022 accounting the needed preparations such as orientation, capacity- building, learning materials development and the like, the Department deemed it necessary to offer the new program to learners from Kindergarten to Senior High School with selected competencies that are lifted directly from Homeroom Guidance Curriculum. However, its full implementation which includes the complete curriculum, policy, and learning materials will be made available at the start of school year 2022-2023. All private schools are encouraged to implement the Homeroom Guidance.
Homeroom Guidance should be considered as an information component of mental health in the K to 12 Curriculum. It is a part of the Information Services that is primarily under the Guidance and Counseling Program. Due to the pandemic, with no other available mechanisms to deliver these services, Homeroom Guidance shall serve as a tool that would promote proactive, preventive, and educative methods to promote the learner’s development of life skills.
Homeroom Guidance is a comprehensive, developmental, and proactive program designed to equip K to 12 learners with life skills on three domains:
a. Academic Development,
b. Personal and Social Development, and
c. Career Development.
Homeroom Guidance shall complement the Department’s goal, which is to produce holistically developed Filipinos who are able to understand themselves, have problem-solving skills, make informed decisions, achieve academic success, plan for their future, and respect individual differences. It envisions learners who can work for the common good of society and love for our country while upholding the rights and responsibilities of global citizens.
This issuance sets the basic standards for an efficient and effective implementation of the Homeroom Guidance in public and private schools nationwide. The Homeroom Guidance Observation Form and Program Monitoring and Evaluation Tool are also enclosed for reference.
