2. Rationale /background
BNATS previously had limited its instructional areas to agriculture courses. The school thus
planned the establishment of a 20 ha cassava farm to provide instructional and practicum area
for Crops Agriculture (CA) students. The anticipated higher enrollment after full
implementation of SHS Program in SY 2016/2017 highlighted the need for additional resources
to provide students with work immersion opportunities and to sustain the school practicum. For
example, the school planned to use cassava as forage crops for animal production courses and as
ingredients in food courses. BNATS proposed the acquisition of a farm tractor for clearing
second-growth forests since tilling is not efficient using small farm implements. The school
counterpart will provide labor costs and other input for establishing he farm within school
premises.

3. Project input
BNATS received a 45 HP farm tractor, complete with trailing harrow and disc plow implements.
Included in the tractor unit was a basic tool set containing a 10T hydraulic jack, washer, Allen
wrench set, grease gun, pliers, screw drivers, open wrenches and spare parts like male coupler,
oil filter, oils seals and O-rings. The supplier conducted a training at BNATS for proper use and
maintenance of the tractor upon delivery, even though BNATS have 3 staff formally trained in
operating farm tractors. The school was also provided copies of the parts catalogue and engine
manual for operation and maintenance.
For Output 1 “BNATS establishes and maintains a 20 ha cassava farm as the students’ practicum
field,” BNATS established a 12 ha production farm planted with cassava, corn, rice, and other
crops. The school plans to gradually expand the farm to the targeted 20 ha until SY 2018/2019,
identifying a total budget of PHP 200,000.00 to fund the farm expansion. Apart from
shouldering labor costs and other inputs for establishing the farm, BNATS also constructed a
tractor garage using school funds and implemented a maintenance plan for the tractor.
Output 2, “CA teachers develop and implement session plan, which ensures enough of the
practicum in the cassava field for the CA students,” was accomplished. Agriculture teachers
developed and implemented a session plan covering 310 hours of practicum for competencies in
supporting horticultural crop work, nursery work, agronomic crop work and irrigation work for
SY 2015/2016. BNATS upgraded its CA offerings in SY 2016/2017, offering Pest Management
NC II in Grade 11 and Organic Agriculture NC II in Grade 12. Session plans with identified
practicum hours were also developed for these courses. 80% of Pest Management students and

100% of Organic Agriculture students obtained passing grades for the course.
6. Results/Impact
CA students participated in farm activities during practicum, obtaining exposure in use of farm
machinery and operating the tractor. By mechanizing previously grueling tasks like land
preparation, teachers observed increased student interest in agriculture. BNATS also acquired a
cassava granulator and a reaper using school funds to further mechanize its farm operations.
The school also widened its network of industry partners through the project. Hearing the school
plan of tilling a 20ha cassava field, a technician from the agro-industrial firm San Miguel Foods,
Inc. (SMFI) visited the school and provided technical advice in establishing the cassava farm.
The school also partnered with Saranay Multi-Purpose Cooperative (MPC), a cassava assembler
and partner of SMFI, in marketing their cassava products. The organization also donated
cassava cuttings to the school.
From June 2015 to March 2017, the school was benchmarked for its good SHS practices by 353
schools, as well as by DepEd region/division offices and other organizations. BNATS also
conducted several batches of skills training for tech-voc teachers, attended by 156 teacher
trainees.
In keeping with their vision to become a premier training facility for fishery technology and
entrepreneurship, BSF has 3 specializations under the TVL strand related to fisheries:

Completion Report
BSF implemented two projects: (1) Food/Fish Processing and Packaging for Fisheries
Technology-Food/Fish Processing (FFP) and (2) Bangus Grow-out and Tilapia Hatchery for
Fisheries Technology-Aquaculture (FTA) . These were aimed at upgrading the facilities and
equipment of the food processing laboratory and the aquaculture laboratory respectively,
thereby improving the quality of education offered in fisheries technology courses. For the
Food/Fish Processing and Packaging project, acquiring industry standard packaging equipment
and additional kitchen equipment would enable FFP students to gain competencies in packaging
processed fish by vacuum, ordinary poly packing, bottling and canning, as well as hands-on
experience in using modern equipment and actual product marketing. For the aquaculture
project Bangus Grow-out and Tilapia Hatchery, procuring additional facilities and equipment for
the school hatchery and grow-out ponds will allow students to develop their competencies in
preparing and maintaining aquaculture facilities, operating nursery, and performing fish
grow-out operations. The hands-on activities will also provide experience in managing
aquaculture projects.
2. Rationale /background
The school planned the food processing and aquaculture projects to improve facilities for
fisheries offerings, enabling BSF to provide quality education to students. Through upgraded
laboratory facilities and equipment for the school hatchery, fishponds, and food processing
workshops, students will develop their competencies in aquaculture and food/fish processing
and packaging. Other schools and organizations will also benchmark the SHS program of BSF
and learn from the school’s good practices.
3. Project input
Equipment procured for the food/fish processing project included vacuum sealer, shrink wrap

machine, can sealer, heat sealer, labeling machine, refrigerator, oven, pressure cooker, sausage
stuffer, food processor, blender, digital weighing scale and brix refractometer. For aquaculture,
the school nursery and grow-out ponds were upgraded with additional aquaculture equipment
like paddle wheel aerators, regenerative blower, canister filter, pump, aquarium fish tanks, fry
hatching barrels, marine engine, generator, and welding machine. Measuring instruments and
other laboratory equipment like turbidity meter, dissolved oxygen meter, soil pH meter, salinity
refractometer, pH meter and microscopes were also procured. As per contract requirement,
suppliers conducted basic orientation to school staff on the proper use and maintenance of
delivered equipment and provided the requisite product manuals for the school’s reference. All
the equipment/facilities were delivered and installed in the school laboratories.

competencies in packaging processed fish are still included in the lessons, as well as
entrepreneurial and marketing competencies. FFP students continue to use the food laboratory
facilities for practicum, and still engage in marketing processed fish products. It was also
confirmed that Output 3, “FFP students experience selling their products in the market”, was
achieved until September 2016, at which point Grade 12 students stopped marketing activities
to prepare for and undergo work immersion.
It was confirmed that Output 1 “the aquacultural laboratory in BSF is updated and ready to be
used for the practicum, and maintained properly” was achieved. Output 2 “the FTA teachers
develop and implement session plans, which ensures enough time for the practicum by using the
aquacultural facilities for the FTA students” was achieved in SY 2015/2016. Core competencies
in preparing and maintaining aquaculture facilities, operating nursery and performing fish
grow-out operations are still included in the lessons for SY 2016/2017, even as the session plans
previously used have now been replaced by DLLs for instructional planning.FTA students
continue to use upgraded aquaculture facilities for hands-on activities in operating an
aquaculture project. BSF also remains to be a TESDA-accredited training and assessment center
for aquaculture.
6. Results/Impact
By improving the school’s aquaculture and food processing facilities and equipment and
allowing more hours for practicum in their instructional plans, BSF ensured students have
quality and sufficient hands-on training needed for mastery of competencies in aquaculture and
food processing. Students have a 100% passing rate their fisheries specialization subject and
TESDA assessment.
The improved facilities and upgraded equipment has also allowed the school to operate
additional fisheries projects with LGU partners and accept more opportunities for conducting
training and assessment in fisheries courses. These activities have given BSF a wider platform
to advocate fisheries as a viable career choice for SHS students. The school was benchmarked
by 39 schools from June 2015 to March 2017, apart from conducting training sessions and
assessments in different fisheries courses.

Completion Report
ONSTS implemented two projects: (1) Additional Equipment for State of the Art (SOTA) building, and
(2) Construction of Gas Tank House. These were aimed at upgrading the facilities and equipment of the
cookery and FBS workshops of the SOTA building, thereby improving the quality of education offered
for commercial cooking (CC) and FBS students. For the additional SOTA equipment project, upgrading
the CC and FBS workshops to industry standards would improve instruction and enable students to obtain
competencies in-demand in the industry. The project for Construction of Gas Tank House on the one hand,
provides safety to teachers and SHS students who use the SOTA Building workshops.
2. Rational /background
Feedback from ONSTS industry partners maintain that SHS graduates in CC and FBS course
will be more employable if they have a broader view of the work entailed in the hotel and
7

restaurant sector. SHS graduates who have competencies for preparing buffet and planning for
catering for example, would have higher chances of getting employed compared to a worker
who only knows how to prepare dishes. ONSTS proposed the upgrading of CC and FBS
workshops with industry standard equipment to support enrichment of the Cookery NC II
course with Commercial Cooking NC III competencies and to allow CC and FBS students more
hands-on experience in using equipment usually used in the industry. The additional equipment
will also address the issue of projected higher SHS enrollment in SY 2016/2017, as this ensures
students have enough workshop equipment to allow for sufficient hands-on experience and
practicum.
Safety is also a concern of the school, with the risky placement of gas tanks beside ovens and
stoves within the workshops. ONSTS thus proposed the construction of a facility for housing
gas tanks outside the workshop building to provide safety for teachers and students. This
complies with safety standards and also discourages theft of gas tanks as these are housed in a
secure facility.
3. Project input
ONSTS received kitchen equipment usually found in the industry including cooking equipment
(ovens, cooktops, gas griddle, and gas fryer), stainless steel equipment (production tables,
service trolleys and steel rack) and kitchen appliances (mixer, meat grinder, stuffer, sealer, hot
bain marie, grillers, pressure cooker, juicer, blender, rice cooker, oven toaster, heat gun, band
sealer, and food warmer). Air conditioning units, dining sets and cabinets were also procured for
the workshops. The suppliers provided manuals for equipment, and ensured proper installation
of all delivered equipment in the workshops. Construction materials for the gas tank house were
also procured and delivered to the school as scheduled.

Construction of the gas tank house was completed in September 2015, with the cost of labor
shouldered by donations from parents and teachers. Ancillary fixtures like safety valves, pipes
and fittings were also installed to connect the facility to the workshops and the cooking
equipment within. The facility is protected and locked against tampering and damage.
For Construction of Gas Tank House, it was confirmed that both Output 1 “the gas tank house is
constructed” and Output 2 “the gas tank house is maintained properly” were achieved. ONSTS
ensured safety of the teachers and SHS students who study in the SOTA building.
6. Results/Impact
The sufficiently equipped workshops for both CC and FBS allowed students to have more
practicum, as less time is spent waiting for their turn to use equipment. One student commented
that “I have confidence to go to work immersion, as I had much time for practicum.” The
equipment procured for the workshops are also to be found in the industry, which gave students
a better idea of what to expect in the workplace. One student who had work immersion at a
hotel in Cagayan de Oro commented there was only one piece of equipment he was not familiar
with upon being assigned in the hotel kitchen. Because of additional competencies in
commercial cooking, the student was also allowed to immerse in other kitchen operations
similar to the responsibilities of a chef. The student was highly evaluated during work
immersion and received a job offer after SHS graduation. For SY 2015/2016, ONSTS graduates
had a 51% employment rate.
According to one teacher in cookery course, teachers are also motivated by the additional
equipment, as they are able to upgrade their skills to include higher level competencies in
commercial cooking. From June 2015 to March 2017, the school has accepted benchmarking
from 58 schools (the number of the industries/organization which benchmarked the school is not
reported).

Completion Report
The school is also concerned by the increasing number of enrollees. Bigger class sizes in the
future will constrain existing facilities and affect the quality of instruction if additional facilities
are not provided. The full implementation of Grade 12 will also increase the demand for work
immersion venues and industries may not be able to absorb all students for immersion in the
industry.
Several workshops and facilities have been constructed for the school’s tech-voc offerings –
including 3 ha of fishponds for fish grow out operations in aquaculture, and a hatchery
laboratory measuring 8 m x 8 m. The sprawling school grounds are not fully secured with
proper enclosures however, with reported cases of fish stock theft in the past. This, in addition
to high cost of feeds and other input in hatchery operations, led ICNSF to allow private
individuals to use the small school hatchery such that aquaculture students could have a facility
to use for instruction. The hatchery is small however, and conditions are cramped within the
limited space when students conduct practicum. Aquaculture students are deployed to private
companies and the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR) to improve students’
competencies and as part of their industry immersion. Since there are limited industrial facilities
in the aquaculture sector located within Iligan City, the cost of attending industry immersion and
additional training can be prohibitive for some students.
For SHS full implementation in SY 2016/2017, ICNSF decided to offer academic track in

ICNSF implemented the project “Multi-Species Hatchery” for Aquaculture (AQ) students.
Through the construction of a well-designed hatchery facility complete with required
aquaculture equipment, the project is meant to equip AQ students with practical skills and
knowledge in operating aquaculture systems, especially in hatchery operations. Students are
able to master competencies needed in operating aquaculture systems by allowing more hours of
practicum and exposure in aquaculture operations.
2. Rationale /background
The school planned the construction of a hatchery laboratory to improve the quality of student
practicum in aquaculture. During SHS modeling, ICNSF partnered with BFAR and other private
companies to ensure students have sufficient practicum, as the school lacked appropriate
facilities. These partners are far from the school however, and there are few industrial facilities
related to aquaculture near the school. Students thus incur additional costs attending additional
training and immersion outside the school. The new hatchery facility ensures AQ students have
sufficient hands-on activities and are able to hone their skills within the school.
Hatchery operations are also more efficient when good hatchery design is coupled with
procurement of required aquaculture equipment. With a higher fingerling survival rate, ICNSF
hopes for better returns for the school. Funds generated from sales of fingerlings will be used
for continued operation of the hatchery by ICSNF, and defray costs of student work immersion.
3. Project input
ICNSF received a fully equipped hatchery facility constructed within the school premises. The
hatchery has 5 brood stock tanks measuring 5 m x 1.5 m each, 2 hatchery tanks measuring 10 m
x 3 m each, a store room, and a motor house. The hatchery has gravel pathways and is enclosed
with a sturdy perimeter fence using steel pipes, interlink wire and barbed wire to discourage
theft. The hatchery was also installed with a pressure tank set, an electric motor pump, a
submersible pump with air blower, and a generator set. A laptop computer and a projector were
also procured, to facilitate instruction. The building plans and equipment manuals were turned
over to the school by the contractor and suppliers, for proper maintenance and operation of the
facility.

The process of the hatchery laboratory construction was conducted compliant to DepEd’s
bidding procedures, thus ICNSF followed government procurement policies in bidding out the
construction component of the project. From July 2015 to September 2015, the school Bids and
Awards Committee (BAC) and a Technical Working Group composed of teachers and school
officials finalized the bid documents for the hatchery construction in preparation for posting the
invitation to bid on the Philippine Government Electronic Procurement System (PhilGEPS)
website. This includes the detailed plan of construction, budget and payment conditions.
The invitation to bid was issued by ICNSF in September 2015, making available to all
interested companies relevant information about the project and inviting companies to submit
their bids. One company purchased the bidding documents. On the scheduled opening of bids
however, no bids were submitted. The BAC declared a failure of bidding due to non-appearance
of bidders. According to one contractor who did not participate in the bidding, the ‘Approved
Budget for the Contract’ (ABC) was deemed below a profitable line. After the failure of the first
bidding, the JPT had a discussion with the school and agreed not to change the ABC. A change
in design was made by ICNSF, from reinforced concrete pathways to gravel pathways, to reduce
the project cost. The BAC and the TWG revised the hatchery design and the bidding documents
for the second round of bidding, and on October 2015, ICNSF posted the invitation to bid on
PhilGEPS. Three companies purchased the bidding documents for the second round of bidding,
with two bids submitted to the BAC before the bid submission deadline. In November 2015,
ICNSF conducted the following activities accordingly; opening of bids (Nov. 6th), evaluation
and qualification (Nov. 9th), contract awarding (Nov. 18th), and pre-implementation meeting
(Nov. 19th).
The winning bidder began construction activities in November 23rd, 2015 and submitted a
project completion report to ICNSF on January 18th, 2016. Subsequently, the principal and AQ
teachers conducted three rounds of inspections to ensure the contractor complied with
12
Project for Supporting Senior High School (SHS) Program in Technical Vocational High Schools
Completion Report
conditions specified in the contract and before payment could be processed by the JPT. Final
inspection was done on February 23rd, 2016 - and on February 24th, construction was completed
and ICNSF issued a certificate of completion to the contractor.
6. Results/Impact
Apart from tilapia and koi, several ornamental fishes including gold fish, guppy, and molly have
been stocked in the hatchery laboratory. Social media is used for marketing and students have
experienced selling fingerlings to customers. ICNSF students continue operating the hatchery
even during summer break to obtain more experience with actual hatchery operations, as well as
to address the local demand for fingerlings. The school is able to sustain continued and efficient
hatchery operations, and even able to improve the facilities by installing net roofing for the
entire hatchery. The nets minimize exposure of fish stock to direct sunlight and keeps predators
like birds out of the facility. The school also continues to invest in teachers’ training to
strengthen the fisheries program. In January 2017, 3 teachers attended skills enhancement
training for aquaculture conducted by the BFAR.
Since the project started in June 2015, the school has accepted benchmarking from 5 schools,
including a fisheries school. The school’s head teacher for technical vocational department was
also appointed as one of the trainers for the DepED Regional Mass Training of Teachers for
SHS in May 2016. During the training, ICNSF shared with 505 SHS teachers of TVL subjects
from 364 secondary schools in the Northern Mindanao region the school’s good practices for
SHS modeling and early implementation, with emphasis on improving fisheries program
offering and ancillary TVL courses.
13

Math and English. The school has prioritized these two concerns in the School Improvement
Plan, identifying teachers’ limited contact time with students and quality of instruction as the
factors. ICNSF also cited students’ lack of basic skills which should have been mastered in
elementary level as another key factor to address, as students are promoted to high school
without having the required skills like reading comprehension and numeracy.
ICNSF is also challenged with incidences of student drop-outs. In SY 2014/2015, there were 78
students who dropped out before the school year ended, with 21.7% being SHS students. Of the
total, 48.7% cited financial difficulties as the reason for dropping out. The school constantly
looks for partners who can provide “scholarships” to students, such as the LGU. The financial
assistance helps dissuade students from dropping out.
In 2013, SHS students and local farmers organized themselves into a duly registered community
association, the “SHS Farmers and Entrepreneurs Association.” During SHS modeling and early
implementation, RAHS and the association partnered with government agencies like DOLE,
DENR, DA, FIDA, DTI, TESDA, and Iligan City LGU, as well as private companies like
Nestle, to strengthen the school’s SHS program. RAHS opted to offer Agricultural Crops
Production NC III beginning SY 2015/16 as the course offers competencies which are in line
with the agro-forestry focus of the school. The number of SHS students for SY 2016/17 is
shown below.
14
Project for Supporting Senior High School (SHS) Program in Technical Vocational High Schools
Completion Report
2. Rationale /background
The school designed their CGP to upgrade tools and equipment in the agriculture workshops as
needed for offering Agricultural Crop Production NC III (ACP). With the procurement of proper
tools and equipment, students are able to develop their agriculture competencies more. SHS
students will also no longer have to borrow equipment from the RAHS junior high school
students. Basic tools and equipment suitable for local use were thus requested, and these were
not necessarily high-technology. ACP students will also utilize the procured tools and equipment
for establishing their demonstration farms.
3. Project input
The project procured equipment for ACP student’s practicum and farm activities as per
specifications made by ACP teachers, as well as laptops and projectors for instruction. These
tools and equipment include hand tractors with implements, brush cutters, knapsack and power
sprayers, wheel barrows, and step ladders. Measuring equipment like weighing scales, long
tapes, and soil testers, and personal protective equipment like rubber boots, gloves, goggles, and
rain coats were also procured. Additional sets of hand tools were also purchased, which
included horticultural implements for cutting (pruning shears, bolos, pruning saws) and digging
(post hole diggers, shovels, hand trowels, pick mattocks).

*1: The total amount of Lot 3 is PHP 137,955, which includes equipment for ICNSF.
*2: Inspection at the store before delivering.
*3: Delivery takes a long time as the supplier is located in Manila. JPT conducted inspection at the Project Office before supplier
delivered to the school.
The supplier conducted training for teachers on proper use and basic maintenance of
mechanized equipment before delivery to the school. Demonstration was also done upon
delivery of the equipment to RAHS. The tools and equipment are currently housed in a secure
equipment room in the recently constructed SHS building funded by DepEd. A maintenance
plan is implemented by ACP teachers and students to ensure proper maintenance of the tools
and equipment, and this is updated every school year.
6. Results/Impact
The traditional farming practices of the IP community rely on manual labor and hand tools for
cultivating the land. The hand tractors and other mechanized equipment used by ACP students
for practicum activities in their demonstration farms raised community members’ interest in the
ACP course offered by RAHS. The well maintained ACP project also encouraged additional
funding from government agencies like DENR and DA for implementation of different projects
supporting the SHS program of the school.
After attending training in Japan, the school principal encouraged ACP students to undertake
their own Project Study. In December 2015, a falcata nursery was thus established by SHS
students outside the school, with supervision of ACP teachers. Being the only nursery serving
the area without having to travel to the city center, the nursery was visited by other farmers and
earned additional income for the students through sales of falcata seedlings. Other farmers in the
community who helped in establishing the nursery were paid in kind (falcata seedlings) so they
can also begin their own agroforestry farms. With help from other agencies and organizations,
an abaca nursery was also established, and an abaca processing facility constructed for the
community. The ACP students are now offering their services to entrepreneurs who need
assistance in setting up their own agroforestry farms. The school also started offering
Horticulture NC II through Community Based Training (CBT) in June 2016. The 28 CBT
trainees are community members who are not attending formal education, are not enrolled in the
SHS program, and are interested in obtaining skills for establishing their own agro-forestry
farms. SHS students assist agriculture teachers during CBT sessions, sharing their knowledge

From June 2015 to March 2016, the school has accepted benchmarking from 2 schools and 8
industries/organizations. Additionally, the school head was designated as a resource person for a
series of regional and national DepEd trainings for SHS principals and TVL specialization
teachers in 2015 and 2016, in which good practices learned from SHS modeling and early
implementation were shared.
During modeling and early implementation of SHS, some students conducted work immersion
55 km away in Davao City as only a few partner companies can absorb SHS trainees within
Tagum City. In the case of Automotive Servicing NC II students, the school also had to pay
partner institutions for student practicum on certain core competencies because the school
lacked industry standard equipment. Enrolment for SHS in SY 2016/2017 is shown below.

2. Rationale /background
TNTS proposed the CGP to address the school’s lack of specialized equipment in the
automotive workshop. With the increasing electronic innovations introduced in modern vehicles,
specialized equipment like computerized alignment systems and diagnostic scanners are a
necessity in automotive shops. TNTS is unable to procure such equipment due to resource
constraints, affecting students’ mastery of competencies. Through acquisition of specialized
equipment, teachers can provide quality instruction of the required competencies of Automotive
Services NC II. Upgrading the automotive workshop to approximate conditions at commercial
automotive shops also enables students to offer automotive services to the community, ensuring
enough hours of practicum and allowing for a “work immersion” venue as needed. With the
projected increase of SHS students requiring immersion in SY 2017/2018, the school’s
automotive service facility could also cater to the needs of other SHS offering automotive
courses.
3. Project input
The project procured a four-post vehicle lift, a computerized wheel aligner, a wheel balancer,
and a diagnostic scanner for the school. TNTS constructed a special automotive facility where
the equipment was installed, and also acquired an air compressor to power shop tools and
equipment.

After delivery of the equipment, TNTS expanded the existing automotive laboratory where the
equipment will be installed and housed. The supplier collaborated with TNTS to ensure the
workshop has the required ceiling height and flooring thickness for proper installation of the
vehicle lift. The facility was completed on 25 February 2016, and the school held a turnover
ceremony the next day attended by stakeholders such as TESDA, Tagum City local government,
and industry partners. The school then procured an air compressor to power shop tools and
equipment, and this was delivered in September 2016. TNTS held a launching ceremony for the
upgraded workshop, also named as Free Automotive Services of TNTS (F.A.S.T.), on 14
September 2016. The activity was attended by LGU, other government agencies, industry
representatives, and Parents Teachers Association. The FAST facility started accepting
customers in September 2016.
Output 1 “automotive service laboratory in TNTS is improved and maintained properly” was
achieved. TNTS drafted a maintenance plan and implemented a maintenance schedule which
ensured the FAST facility was properly maintained. An annual maintenance budget of PHP

*1 Lesson Log: RAHS teachers make a Lesson Log as a lesson plan every week. The log may include the number of hours that the students may perform hands-on activities and concepts of agroforestry.
*2 Agroforestry and Sustainable Livelihood are not included in the original curriculum of Agriculture Crop Production NC III. The principal integrated these concepts and methods with the original curriculum because the school is located in
mountainous area unsuitable to monoculture and plantation method. Agroforestry is not a subject like Agri Crop Prod NC III but a program that is to be integrated in the subject ACP. It is suitable because of the topography of the area. The area
does permit monocropping. While integrating agroforestry in the conduct of ACP, students / community can acquire sustainable livelihood.

Notes and Additional Remarks:
TNTS generates some income by being an assessment center for AT NC II, and through post-secondary course offerings. School's income helps in the maintenance of its facilities. Previously, TNTS paid PHP 350 per student to owners of commercial automotive shops for students training, to fully
complement classroom instruction. The school can now offer the same training for students within the school because of modern shop equipment procured.

Model Schools
In addition to the four pilot schools, 10 Tech-Voc schools were designated
as SHS modeling schools by the DepED in 2012. Four schools were located
in Luzon, two in Visaya and four in Mindanao.
Prior to the activities at model schools in the project’s second year (from
May 2015 to April 2016), the Project Team visited those model schools and
their DepED division offices to study how the preparation for SHS program
was going in the respective area.
Common issues were found such as a lack of qualified teachers, a lack of
appropriate facilities and equipment, and a high drop-out rate in SHS mod-
eling. The practices and issues of each school were as follows:

CAGAYAN DE ORO HOTEL AND
RESTAURANT ASSOCIATION
(COHARA)
To facilitate the placement of SHS students in hotels and restaurants for work
immersion, the Opol National Secondary Technical School (ONSTS) in Misamis Oriental
became a member of the Cagayan de Oro Hotel and Restaurant Association (COHARA), an
organization of hotels and restaurants based in Cagayan de Oro City. COHARA was
organized in 1996 through the initiative of the Department of Tourism, and is an affiliated
chapter of the Hotel and Restaurant Association of the Philippines (HRAP).
As of February 2016, COHARA has facilitated the placement of a number of ONSTS
students to its member hotels and restaurants as trainees. Some students have also been able
to land jobs with the same companies after their graduation from SHS. Through membership
in COHARA, the school not only ensures quality work immersion for its SHS students, but
also gives SHS students opportunities for career advancement.
FEATURED PRODUCT
SMOKED SOFT-BONED BANGUS
(Bataan School of Fisheries)
Product Description
Bangus, or milk fish, is known for its delicate flavor, but
may be challenging to eat because of its spiny anatomy. An
effective way to process bangus and make it more attractive
to consumers is to soften the spines by pressure cooking the
fish, before smoking. The product formed is known as
“smoked soft-boned bangus” or tinapang bangus. Smoked soft-boned bangus
The school constructed a
Inside the BSF Smokehouse smokehouse for curing, and
uses vacuum packaging for its tinapang bangus. Since 1993, the
smoked soft-boned bangus of Bataan School of Fisheries
(BSF) has been a bestseller among overseas Filipino workers
(OFWs) in Orion, Bataan. Sugarcane bagasse, the fibrous
remains of the sugar cane after juice is extracted, is used by
the school for smoking, to obtain a consistently mild and
sweet smelling flavor for its product. OFWs purchase the
vacuum-packed product as pasalubong when they return to
their work stations in other countries. Employees of the local
government unit and other government agencies in the area also make bulk orders of
tinapang bangus as a gift for their visitors. The school shares the method for preparing this
product during livelihood training for community members.
