GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION SYSTEM-BASED SCHOOL PROFILING SYSTEM: LONG OVERDUE AT THE CENTRAL OFFICE!
Yesterday I received this long letter from Engr. Oliver R. Hernandez, Chief PFSED informing us that we still have 23 schools which have not submitted their GIS-BSPS forms.
This forms have been distributed to all school heads in 2008 where it was given as a bring home work after the orientation. Some submitted on time. Others submitted after 3 months. These 23 did nothing. Hence, after a long hiatus, a wake up call came, insering the basic form so that it could be facilitated soon.
This GISBSPS is a project of DepED School Mapping Unit, to have a database of all school sites including the its size, geographic features, student population and its geographic coordinates. The Ginsaugon experiences taught that it is important to really establish the school's location. After the landslide that wiped out a Ginsaugon elementary school, there was a hard time locating the school buildings in order to recover the victims.
Hopefully this year we will be able to submit 100% of the GISBSPS to the School Mapping Unit at DepED Central Office.
