The ranking of the best elementary education schools in the Philippines for 2018 has been released, which currently featured only 24 of the 1,473 colleges and universities offering bachelor of elementary education.

West Visayas State University still led the list of the top performing schools offering elementary education undergraduate programs in 2018 with 90.02 percent overall score. University of Southeastern Philippines-Tagum followed with 84.92 percent while Mariano Marcos State University-Laoag City and University of Santo Tomas ranked third and fourth with 82.74% and 79.25% overall scores, respectively. University of the Philippines-Diliman landed fifth with 76.43 percent overall score. These schools are currently Centers of Excellence (COE) for teacher education as accredited by the Commission on Higher Education (CHED).

Rounding out the remaining five places for the first top 10 performing schools are the Saint Louis University at 6th rank, Philippine Normal University-Manila at 7th, Xavier University at 8th, Ateneo de Naga University at 9th, and University of Saint La Salle at 10th. Except for University of Saint La Salle, these schools are presently Centers of Excellence (COE) in teacher education. Meanwhile, USLS is presently Center of Development (COD) in teacher education.

The rankings are based on the results of two licensure examinations this year (March and September) plus other factors including level of accreditation and faculty-student ratio to find out which schools offering undergraduate programs in elementary teacher education have the most valuable degree programs to produce batch of examinees with high licensure examination for teachers (LET) passing rates.

The ranking uses the same performance indicators as the Local Pulse School Rankings, however the weightings for number of examinees were adjusted to reflect programs with large disparity of number of examinees. Details on the methodology are discussed here. Other possible factors which are possibly secondary variables in determining the best Philippine schools to study teacher education are included in the disclaimer page. Factors such as international linkages, community involvement, employer reputation, research outputs, and research citations per faculty are not part of this study. These variables are assumed to be assessed by accredited agencies such as PACUCOA, PAASCU, and AACCUP.

RELATED STORIES:

To rank the schools, we took the weighted passing rates of the two licensure examination for teachers (elementary level) this year, the number of examinees, and top performing examinees as the overall board exam performance, and faculty-student ratio and accreditation status of the elementary teacher education undergraduate program as other criteria. Note that the passing rates we used this year were adjusted to 60% and above (unlike the PRC’s 80%), and minimum of 50 examinees (similar to the PRC’s 50 minimum examinees).
