The Quezon City Government, through the QC Education Affairs Unit (EAU), has created initiatives that encompass various learning areas as part of the city’s education efforts, which include the implementation of the Zero Iliteracy sa QC Tutoring program and the Blended Learning program, along with the distribution of learning kits and devices to QCitizens. 

Zero Illiteracy Sa QC Tutoring Program

With the Zero Illiteracy Sa QC Tutoring program, the city government aims to deliver impactful remediation support to students identified as non-readers, non-numerates, and those performing below the expected proficiency level. 

With 137 tutors employed, students are expected to acquire the foundational skills in reading and math, and enhance students’ self-confidence in learning by the end of the program. 

As of February 2024, it has already catered to 1,272 students from 23 QC public schools. Zero (0) non-readers were reported after 25 days of tutoring sessions in reading, which is equivalent to 50 tutoring hours. In the numeracy program, 91% of the students can now count and perform basic math operations post-program.

Overall, students demonstrated improved foundational reading and math skills by the end of the program.

This initiative is funded by the city’s Learning Recovery Trust Fund. 

Blended Learning Program

In cooperation with the city’s Schools Division Office (SDO), the local government has officially established the blended learning program in all public elementary and high schools in the city, where students take their classes through a combination of face-to-face and online classes. 

Under the program, the students’ continuous learning despite the suspension of face-to-face classes due to variables such as typhoons, extreme heat, and other emergencies is still guaranteed. 

This also aims to utilize technology to enhance students’ experiences, particularly in facing the challenges in the education sector, including highly congested schools and classroom shortages. 

For the school year 2025-2026, a total of 12,864 students have participated in the blended learning program that has been initially implemented in Batasan Hills National High School and is now in its second year. 

Distribution of Learning Kits and Devices 

To further boost the performance of students, teachers, and schools in the city, the local government has also provided support through learning kits and devices. 

The learning kits contain school supplies tailored to students’ needs depending on their grade level, which include notebooks, ballpens, pencils, whiteboards, markers, and water tumblers. Students and teachers were also given high-quality laptops, tablets, and desktop computers each year to help them create and complete tasks.

As of June 2025, 420,000 learning kits had been distributed to students of the S.Y. 2025-2026, bringing the total to 2.4 million since 2020. 

From 2020 to July 2025, a total of 9,821 laptops have been distributed to public school teachers, plus 148 laptops supplied to child development workers.
