Educational Service Contracting (ESC)

Academia de San Bartolome de Taguig is an ESC-participating Junior High School.

Educational Service Contracting (ESC) is a partnership program by the Department of Education (DepEd) aimed at decongesting overcrowded public junior high school. In ESC, the excess capacities of certified private junior high schools are “contracted” through slot allocations for students who would otherwise have gone to public schools. The slots come with subsidies called ESC grants, and program beneficiaries are called ESC grantees.

ESC aims to make quality junior high school education accessible by providing financial assistance to deserving elementary graduates who wish to study junior high school in private schools.

ESC grantees are assured of financial assistance throughout junior high school as long as they meet the
requirements for regular promotion in each grade level.

REQUIREMENTS

Prepare the following documentary requirements found below:

  1. Recent Identical 2×2 ID photo (2 copies

  2. Photocopy of PSA Certified Birth Certificate (1 copy)

  3. Photocopy of Grade 6 Report Card

  4. Latest Income Tax Return for the previous year or Certificate of Tax Exemption or Municipal Certification of Unemployment of Parents/Legal Guardian or any Proof of Income (We will accept Certification issued from the Barangay).

TERMS OF THE ESC GRANT

As per guidelines on the implementation of the ESC Program in the Junior High School (D.O No. 20, s. 2017),

  1. The ESC grant covers four (4) years of junior high school starting from grade 7. No new ESC
    grants are awarded at higher grade levels.

  2. The grant remains in force for the next school year if the grantee is promoted to the next grade
    level and enrolls in an ESC-participating JHS. No maintaining grades are required of grantees within a
    school year.

  3. The grant is terminated if a grantee does any one of the following:

    • Drops out for non-health reasons in the middle of the school year.

    • Does not reenroll the following school year.

    • Fails to be promoted to the next grade level or is retained at the same grade level.

    • Is suspended for more than two (2) weeks, dismissed, or expelled by the school for
      disciplinary reasons; or

    • Transfers to a non-ESC-participating JHS

  4. Transfers to another ESC-participating JHS are allowed. In cases when the applicable subsidy
    amount of the releasing school is different from that of the accepting school, the accepting school will be
    paid the lower of the two applicable subsidy amounts.

  5. Grantees who drop out due to prolonged illness, accident, force majeure, or death of a parent
    or guardian may be reinstated in the ESC program, provided they submit relevant documents to PEAC.
    The documents to be submitted are to support their claim (i.e. for illness, a medical certificate issued by a
    licensed medical doctor).
