The Literacy Coordinating Council (LCC) conducted its 2019 Midyear Performance Review on July 16-18, 2019 at DepED ECOTECH Center, Lahug, Cebu City. The three-day review served as a venue for its performance assessment for the first two (2) quarters of 2019, as well as planning for the remaining semester. The topics covered in the workshop include presentation and discussion on the proposed Revised LCC Law; report on the Consultative Workshop on the Development of the LCC Database Management System; Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) of the LCC Support Funds; ALS version 2.0; revalidation of the LCC Roadmap; and review of the Key Performance Indicators (KPI) of council member agencies, among others.
LCC Chairperson Diosdado M. San Antonio, DepEd Undersecretary for Curriculum and Instruction, shared an invaluable inspirational message and expressed his heartfelt gratitude to the LCC members and the Secretariat for their collaborative support on creating a country populated and inhabited with Filipinos who are functionally literate, “We all share a belief that we must move forward to allow every Filipino become authentically literate, especially in this time of Fourth Industrial Revolution when people who are not very literate will be the ones to suffer most. Meanwhile, during this Knowledge Age, those who will prevail, thrive and survive are those who are ready to learn for life.” To satisfy this vision, he assured that LCC will always have the support of his office to find ways on creating synergy and continue searching for more effective and challenging initiatives that will enhance literacy.
