Education Secretary Sonny Angara on Wednesday said he aims to further cut the processing time for the procurement of textbooks and their distribution to schools nationwide to less than a year. Angara, who assumed office as the new secretary of the Department of Education two weeks ago, said that it used to take three years to print and deliver a textbook for learners, until his predecessor, Vice President Sara Duterte, shortened it to one year.
Citing data by DepEd’s Bureau of Learning Resources, the commission said that since 2012–when the K to 12 program was implemented–up to 2023, only 27 textbooks had been procured for Grade 1 to Grade 10.
