- 11. There will be adjustments to be made in terms of classrooms, facilities, class schedule and teachers’ schedule. Part of the adjustment is the single session for grades 1 and 2 levels. Grade 1 will have their classes in the afternoon and the grade 2 pupils will come in the morning.
- 12. The MS MUTP is open to all current students of Manresa School from Grades 1 to 7. Students in the said levels will be given a fair chance to move up provided they show favorable proficiency level results in the pre-assessment and summative assessment tests and are found ready to go through the process of moving up.
- 13. Pupils in the Preschool whose age is appropriate for their grade level will not be moved up. Only those whose ages need to be matched with the grade levels of K-12 will be moved up. Pupils in Grade 1 who were accelerated in SY 2012-2013 will move to the next level which is Grade 2.
- 14. New students can also enjoy the benefits of the move-up program provided they pass the entrance exam and their ages correspond with the grade levels of K-12. They will also take the pre-assessment and summative assessment tests to gauge their skills’ proficiency level.
- 15. The pre-assessment test will be given to Manresa School students (Grades 1 to 7) on December 7, 2012 to assess their acquisition and mastery of the competencies and skills in Math, Science, Filipino and English. Those who will have a poor proficiency level result will go through a remedial program within the school year 2012-2013 beginning January, 2013. Class schedule will be restructured to accommodate the remedial program.
- 16. They will attend the Bridge Categorized Program in summer and will take the summative assessment test on the date scheduled. If diagnosed to be not academically ready to skip one level even after the summative assessment test, the child will be recommended to the next level.
- 17. The pre-assessment test is a tool that will be used by the school to determine the academic readiness of the students for MUTP for the Bridge Categorized Program. The said test will assess the students’ acquisition and mastery of the competencies and skills in Math, Science, Filipino and English of the current year. Since there is no Science subject in Grades 1-2, the scope of the pre-assessment test for the said levels will just be Filipino, Math and English.
- 18. Should the child continue to show poor proficiency level in the summative assessment test, a dialogue with the parents will be conducted and the child will be recommended to stay in the appropriate level. In other words, the child will not be allowed to skip one level.
- 19. The written result will be released to the parents on the day scheduled by the school. The manner of releasing the result is similar to the distribution of report cards.

- 21. In as much as we want all students to move up, those who will not be able to do so will be recommended to stay in their appropriate level after dialoguing with parents.
- 22. The Bridge Categorized Program is a transitional academic intervention that will be conducted from Monday to Friday in summer from April 1- May 17, 2013.
- 23. The program is categorized into three: a. Group A – for the achievers or for those who have high proficiency level result in the pre-assessment test. b. Group B – for the average group or for those who have average proficiency level result in the pre-assessment test. c. Group C – will be given to those who will have either low or poor proficiency level result in the pre-assessment test.
- 24. The said program will use the modular approach. After going through the Bridge Categorized Program the students will be given a summative assessment test.
- 25. The Bridge Categorized Program will focus on the following skills based subjects such as Math, Science, English, and Filipino. For Grade 1 pupils moving to Grade 3, their BCP will focus on Math, Filipino and English only since Science will be introduced in Grade 3.
- 26. The scope of the Bridge Categorized Program should be the important competencies and skills of the skipped level of the K-12 Program to prepare them for the move-up.
- 27. Since the Bridge Categorized Program will be offered in summer, the students will be asked to pay a certain amount commensurate to the time spent and effort made by the teachers, the use of electricity and water, the materials to be used and the modules to be reproduced.
- 28. A summative assessment test measures the skills and competencies acquired and learned by the students during the BCP. This will be given on May 17, 2013, last session of the BCP.
- 29. The BCP is a requirement in the Move-Up Transition Program. Students will not be allowed to skip one level should they fail to attend the BCP in summer. Instead, they will be placed in their appropriate level.
- 30. A structured Enrichment/Remedial Classes will be offered in school year 2013-2014 to ensure that students will master the skills and competencies needed for the succeeding years. Extra-curricular activities will be decongested in the SY 2013-2014.
- 31. The school can provide remedial program and other accommodations which can help the students concerned thru the repeated drills, exercises, take-home modules for reinforcement and on-going assessment to monitor the child’s progress. A constant dialogue with parents will also be done. Furthermore, the Guidance Office shall implement a program that would assist the students in enhancing their socio-emotional learning competencies.
- 32. The following are the benefits we can get from the MUTP: • Age matches with the grade levels of K-12 (employable after Senior High) • Financial savings equivalent to one year schooling • Enhances academic challenge • They will graduate with their batch mates
- 33. The following are being done: • Matching of the existing course content / syllabi with the K-12 Curriculum Guide; further accommodations of innovative and relevant teaching strategies • On-going Linear articulation and workshops of teachers per subject area • Close monitoring of the K-12 implementation program thru class supervision
- 34. • Trimester evaluation of the course content and monitoring of the students’ progress in their learning competencies • On-going values integration that will ensure a holistic formation of the students • Continuous Professional Updating of teachers and coordinators in the area of Curriculum and Instruction • Consultation with curriculum experts as regards curriculum re-engineering • On-going provision for students’ academic enrichment and remediation program • Conducting a curriculum audit
- 37. The First Holy Communion will be received by the affected batch in Grade 4. The instruction on the First Holy Communion and the preparation of the pupils will be incorporated in their CLE 4 class.
- 38. There will be no graduation for the affected batch. However, the honor students will be recognized by giving them the medals and certificates of recognition due to them.
- 39. The school has hired the services of a researcher to conduct a study on the possible courses to be offered in Grades 11-12. The result of which will be submitted to the Administration in December. We have about two years to prepare the school facilities and curriculum for whatever courses we shall be offering for the said grade levels.
