 Accomplishing Specific Targets

The preceding sections outlined the actions that we need to take towards establishing a
child-friendly school. However, this is just the first step. We must also ensure that our
actions are effective enough to help us realize desired outcomes for children in the context
of the child- friendly school system.

We may also call these desired outcomes 'targets.' The following are the targets set for
itself by the Department of Education (DepEd). The ideal, of course, is to aim for universal
coverage or 100% attainment of these targets.
•All children 6-12 years old are enrolled in elementary school.

SAM
•All children complete their elementary education within six years.
•All Grade 6 students pass the division, regional or national tests.

In addition are targets relating to the promotion of proper health and nutrition among
schoolchildren and school personnel. This follows the principle that a healthy and well-
nourished child is more ready for learning than a sickly one.
The additional targets are as follows:
•All schoolchildren are well nourished.
•All schoolchildren are healthy.
•All schoolchildren have good dental health.

The following are the standards by which you are asked to rate your school:
