The Department of Education Schools Division Office of Muntinlupa (DepEd SDO-Muntinlupa) and De La Salle-College of Saint Benilde signed a memorandum of agreement on June 5, 2025. The partnership aims to promote academic success of Deaf learners in Muntinlupa City through a Deaf-centered bilingual secondary education program.
The program is called MLITEDCE-LEAD, which stands for Model Learning Institute on Deaf Centered Education – Literacy Education and Advancement of the Deaf. It is based on an education framework developed by Benilde Center for Education and Advancement of the Deaf (Benidle-CEAD) in partnership with The Nippon Foundation of Japan beginning 2016. The program uses evidence-based practices to help Deaf learners succeed in school. It also trains teachers, develops learning materials, and builds Deaf-centered learning systems.
