IPEd integration is a flagship project on IPEd implementation which aims to assist the Sama Bajau learners in their educational pursuit. This primarily focus on two aspects; (1) developing literacy and numeracy of learners in KS 1 and preparing them for integration to KS 2, and (2) integating Sama Bajau learners with Tagalog learners in KS 2 to help them in educational advancement while developing interpersonal skills as they are preparing for KS 3 which is the secondary education. Relative to this, there are programs and projects conducted to support the program such as capacity building for teachers for the teaching and learning process, and advocacy projects to assist them for the preservation of their culture while continuously immersed in the Batangas City community.
A large number of Bajau learners are accomodated in three implementing schools. In the last three years the enrolment range from 450 - 490. Integration in KS2 continues and monitoring provides major improvement as manifested by their grades and other school performances.
Though most Bajau learners do not enroll in High School due to early marriage and work related reasons, there is an indication that there is an mprovement in class performance of those who continue their studies in high school
