The IP Education Curriculum for the ALS

coordination with National Commission on
Indigenous Peoples (NCIP) and was validatedby various indigenous cultural communities
in the Philippines. The IP Curriculum is to be

The learning competencies of the IP
Curriculum were drawn from the existingALS Curriculum for the basic literacy,
elementary and secondary levels. The
curriculum content, however, was basedon the Indigenous People Rights Act
(IPRA) or Republic Act (RA) NO. 8371.
The education goal of the IP
Curriculum is the attainment of the
functional literacy for the IPs.
