Implementation of School Learning Recovery and Continuity Plan: Basis of Action Plan

Murphy Espinosa

Discipline: Education

 

Abstract:

The research study assessed the implementation of the School Learning Recovery and Continuity Plan (SLRCP) in Public Elementary and Secondary Schools of Zone 1, Division of Zambales for the school year 2023-2024. The study used a descriptive survey research design and employed descriptive and inferential statistics for data analysis. The findings revealed characteristics of school heads involved in the implementation and highlighted areas of significant difference in the SLRCP implementation based on educational attainment. However, no significant difference was found in terms of age, sex, position, and years in service as school head concerning the implementation. The proposed action plan is based on the study's lowest mean findings. Recommendations include encouraging teachers to conduct learning needs assessments and seeking assistance from the Local Government Unit for learners in need of electronic devices. Regular class observations are advised to assess teaching methodologies, and training for community stakeholders and parents is encouraged to improve communication and partnering skills. The action plan can be presented to School Heads for potential implementation, and future researchers may conduct similar studies to validate the results.
