Several inmates of the Tacloban City Jail have proven that being incarcerated is never a hindrance towards attaining education.

 

This is after 27 inmates successfully completed their elementary and high school education through the Department of Education's (DepEd) Alternative Education System (ALS).

 

The inmates were honored in a graduation ceremony held for the first time inside the Tacloban City Jail, which has more than 600 prisoners.

 

Tacloban City Councilor Jerry Yaokasin, who was the ceremony's keynote speaker, encouraged the inmates to continue learning. Im sure that what you learned here will help you when you are finally freed, he said.

About 74 other inmates joined the ALS program but failed the program's evaluation and assessment. However, they are expected to complete their education next year.

 

The ALS is a free education program for those who cannot afford formal education. It provides both informal and non-formal sources of knowledge and skills under a flexible schedule for the students. It features basic literacy programs; short-term courses in baking, cooking, and electronics; as well as programs for the out-of-school youth.

 

 

 

* I think it's a good program for the government, that they should have budget for these prisoners. I think not all prisoners are guilty, some were I guess proven guilty. And providing them these short-term courses could help them find a job when they are free. *
