project in planning

The project involves the construction of thousands of new public-school classrooms across Luzon, Philippines, under a public-private partnership approved by the Philippines' Economic and Development Council. The Department of Education will implement the project, with private partners financing, building, leasing, and eventually transferring the facilities to the government.PSIP III aims to construct 16,459 new classrooms across 1,095 existing schools in Luzon between March 2027 and March 2028, benefiting at least 800,000 learners annually through improved facilities. It is expected to reduce the average class size from 50 to 39 students, create more conducive learning spaces, eliminate the multiple-shift schedules, increase student contact time, and reduce teacher workload.
