Abstract

Madrasah is regarded as the Islamic culture's identity; however, its operation has not been given more attention. The study aimed to determine the operation of the regulated elementary Madrasah in the Philippines and suggest a policy to integrate DepEd Order no. 41, s. 2017 and DepEd Order no. 51, s. 2004, when the education code for the Ministry of Basic, Higher, and Technical Education in the Bangsamoro region was drafted. The study is a descriptive survey utilizing a researcher-made questionnaire administered to 138 teachers, principals, and administrators. It used total population sampling and employed the mean. Results show low educational planning and programming, learners' assessment, permit to operate, monitoring, and reporting financial support. Similarly, the attainment of educational opportunities and objectives was low. Hence, regulated elementary Madrasahs still helped improve pupils' competencies in Islamic studies and the Arabic language, which enhanced their spiritual and intellectual growth as Muslim youth. However, functioning correctly in the regulated Elementary Madrasah operation requires rigid planning, organization, coordination, and control. It is suggested that the integration of the policy guidelines on Madrasah in the K-12 basic education program should be harmonized to follow the standard curriculum for elementary education for more responsive, effective, and efficient implementation, monitoring, and evaluation.
