At Ayala, we see teachers as partners in making world-class education attainable for Filipinos.

Hence, we invested in education to secure a better future for our nation.

In 2013, we founded Affordable Private Education Center, Inc. (APEC Schools), the largest chain of stand-alone affordable, private high schools in the country. In 2015, we acquired University of Nueva Caceres, the oldest and largest private university in Bicol. Three years later, we took over National Teachers College, the pioneering private institution for teacher education in the country.

To deepen our impact in the education sector, Ayala partnered with the Yuchengco Group of Companies in 2019 and consolidated its education investments under iPeople.

To all teachers in APEC Schools, UNC, NTC, and iPeople — thank you for your selfless service in educating the next generation, #ForTheGreaterGood.
