SENATE Committee on Basic Education, Arts and Culture chairman Sherwin Gatchalian will coordinate with Vice President-elect Sara Duterte-Carpio for the implementation of different programs in education.

Gatchalian is confident he will have a good working relationship with the incoming Department of Education Secretary.

“Maganda nga ‘to dahil kami ni VP Sara mayroon nang pinagsamahan noong una pa, nung kami ay naging mayor at marami kaming mga proyekto o programa, kami naging magka-partner. Lalo na Valenzuela at Davao mayroon kaming partnership project,” Gatchalian disclosed.

“Ang unang-una kong gagawin ay bigyan po ng briefing si VP Sara kung ano po ang aking pananaw tungkol sa mga problema natin sa edukasyon,” he added.

Gatchalian will prioritize discussing face-to-face classes and K to 12 system with Duterte-Carpio.

“Uumpisahan ko sa face-to-face. Tayo na ho ang sa aking pagbabasa, tayo na ho ang kaisa-isang bansa na hindi pa nagpi-face-to-face classes sa buong mundo. Kailangan na talaga tayong bumalik sa face-to-face,” he said.

“At pangalawa ‘yung K to 12 system natin, naku maraming hinanakit po ang ating mga kababayan dahil ‘yung K to 12 naging pahirap sa marami at kailangan po maiayos ‘yan,” the senator further stressed.
