K-12 BASIC EDUCATION PROGRAM
Rationale:- Enhancing the quality of the basic education in the
Philippines is urgent and critical- The poor quality of basic education is reflected in the low
achievement of scores of Filipino students (included in the national test)
- He congested curriculum partly explains the present state of education
- The quality of education is reflected in the inadequate preparation of high school graduates for the world of work or entrepreneur or higher education
- Most graduates are too young to enter into labor force- The current system also reinforces the misperception that
basic education is just a preparatory step for higher education.
- Filipino graduates are not automatically recognized as professionals abroad
- The short basic education program affects the human development of the Filipino children.
Our Filipino students should prepare for adult life by studying subjects that suit their talents, passions, and aspirations and enable them to contribute to the sustainable future of our country and the world.
More QuestionsAre our Filipino Learners:
• Critical thinkers?• Problem solvers?• Good Communicators?• Values-driven?• ICT savvy?• Flexible and adaptable?• Innovative and creative?• Globally competent and
competitive?• Environmentally literate?

“I think the ideal scenario in education should have at least close to 20% of the National Budget compared to the current level of 12.6 % . DepEd remains confident in government’s ability to fund K-12 and it is equally confident with its own ability to secure partnership that would allow the department to share the financial burden the added two years will entail.”

A dialogue with the Lord
“What is that in your hand? “The Lord asks.” “An old rod,” Moses answers.
“Then, take that rod with which you shall do signs, and great miracles will be accomplished,” says the Lord.
And Moses obeys the Lord, that what is told.
The Lord this time asks an educator. “What is in your hand?”” Time, resources and abilities.”
“ What is that you are in?”“A school,”answers the educator.
“Why are you there?” The Lord asks again.
“And who is that child?” “The child is the future, and I am
the privileged worker who is allowed to spend days with the future. In this place I build love,
truth and justice. This is the place that creates a structure that lasts
not only for a century but forever.”
The Lord smiles and gives the educator the sign of blessings.
Finally the Lord in his tender voice said:
“Go and continue serving with
AREN’T YOU GLAD TO BE

love,understanding,
joy,
and optimism.”hope
