Our School PAREF-Southridge has been putting into practice the Understanding by Design (espoused by Wiggins and McTighe ) as a curriculum framework for more than seven years.

Our Academics Office is also extending help to various schools through seminars, the latest of which was given last 26 October 2010 to more than 200 public and private school teachers of Naguilian, Isabela. The said seminar was entitled " From Paper to Practice: Understanding the Understanding by Design". Our key speakers include Dr. Ernesto Grio, Mr. Abet Dakila, Mr. Nick Galvez to name a few. Should you wish to avail of this help, our Academics Office is willing to extend such.
