Bohol Deaf Academy (BDA) is a private, coed, residential Philippine high school for deaf students, located in Tagbilaran City, Bohol. [1] It was established in 2005 and specializes in advanced academic and vocational instruction for college and work-bound students.
BDA is the only private school for the deaf in Bohol, and is recognized by the Philippine Department of Education as a "school of excellence".[ citation needed] All of BDA's students receive partial or full scholarships—the only residential high school in the region with such status. [2]
The school is unique in the Philippines for offering a "Vocational Oriented" curriculum, which reserves 2 days per week for vocational skills training, as well as on-the-job training with International Deaf Education Association (IDEA), Philippines, the largest private employer of deaf people in the country. [3] This relationship allows for internships in Dao Diamond Hotel—the only deaf-run hotel in the Philippines, the Garden cafe, a restaurant employing deaf adults, established in 1984, and the IDEA construction team. [4]
BDA is also the only high school in the country with a deaf Principal, deaf vocational and academic teachers, and deaf maintenance personnel. [1]
Completed in 2005, BDA was constructed by deaf masons, carpenters, painters, and welders from IDEA.
