The Filipino Institute (FI) K–12 Academic Support Program is a structured learning support and guided study program designed for Filipino students abroad who wish to continue the Philippine K–12 education pathway while living overseas.
FI is not a school.
Students are officially enrolled in a DepEd-accredited partner school in the Philippines, which issues all official academic records, while FI provides daily learning support, coaching, and guided instruction using DepEd-aligned MATATAG curriculum modules.
What FI K–12 Is (and What It Is Not)
✅ What FI Provides
- Guided learning support based on DepEd-aligned modules
- Daily academic reinforcement and coaching
- Homework, project, and assessment support
- Reading, writing, math, and comprehension drills
- Structured routines and study habits
- Face-to-face, virtual, and self-paced learning support
- Coordination with the PH partner school
❌ What FI Does NOT Do
- FI does NOT issue LRNs
- FI does NOT issue report cards or Form 137
- FI does NOT conduct official DepEd exams
- FI does NOT replace a formal school
📌 All official academics come ONLY from the DepEd-accredited partner school in the Philippines.
Partner School & Official Academic Records
Students are enrolled in FI’s DepEd-accredited partner school in the Philippines, which provides:
- ✔ Learner Reference Number (LRN)
- ✔ Report Cards (Form 138)
- ✔ Permanent Records (Form 137)
- ✔ Official DepEd grading and assessments
- ✔ DepEd-approved MATATAG modules
- ✔ Official Philippine school-year calendar
FI supports students daily so they can successfully meet the partner school’s academic requirements.
