Parents for Education Foundation (PAREF) is an educational foundation established by parents that administers schools for basic education in the Philippines. It owns several single-sex Catholic schools that are closely affiliated with Opus Dei.[1][2]

Profile

[edit]

Founded in 1976, PAREF Schools aim to provide personal integral education to their students.
