Enhanced K to 12 Basic Education ProgramThe goal of the curriculum is to create a functional basic education system that will produce productive and responsible citizens equipped with the essential competencies and skills for both life – long learning and employment. The program will enhance the basic education system to full functionality to fulfil the basic learning needs of students. This is in line with the agenda of President Benigno Aquino III of having quality education as a long term solution to poverty. In order to achieve these goals, the program has the following twin – objectives:
a. To give every student an opportunity to receive quality education based on an enhanced and decongested curriculum that is internationally recognized and comparable; b. To change public perception that high school education is just a preparation for college; rather than, it should allow one to take advantage of opportunities for gainful career or employment and/or self - employment in a rapidly changing and increasingly globalized environment. The benefits of the K to 12 ProgramFar outweigh the additional costs that will be incurred by both government and families.
