ACED Mission Statement

The Ateneo Center for Educational Development (ACED) spearheads the University's mission to close the poverty gap and improve quality of life through improving public basic education in scale.

It aims to move up the performance of clusters of public schools through initiatives that are needs-based, community-owned, and outcomes-based, by engaging various units of the Ateneo de Manila, the school communities, DepEd at the national and local levels, and local government. 

It facilitates partnerships with individuals and institutions to marshal human and material resources to support its mission.

Overall Approach

School-profiling

Strategic Planning

Targeted Interventions

School-Profiling

this school-based research aims to generate baseline data on the school’s actual vs. perceived situation

the needs that will surface from the data will have to be addressed for interventions to be effective (e.g. basic infrastructure needs)

Strategic Planning

involves the entire school community (principal, teachers, students, parents, barangay officials)

the school and community must come together and make the decision to work towards the improvement of their school

output: doable and realistic school development plan

Targeted Interventions

Principal-Empowerment Programs Leadership Development Programs Teacher-Empowerment Programs Teacher Training Programs Certificate or Degree Programs for Teachers Dental – Optha Missions Feeding Programs

“Specific, useful data is important in the effort to improve public schools in the country. In

the Philippines, data is usually just reported in averages but averages are not very useful.

For example, the National Achievement Test of the Division of Quezon City may be 74%

but the interventions for a school like Commonwealth Elementary School with a score of 50% should be different from the interventions for a school like Placido del Mundo Elementary School with a score of

80%”
