What are the causes of non-readers in school today in the Philippines?

Answer 1

Aside from the usual answer( underprivileged children) one cause is on how teachers educate their students especially in public schools. Sometimes teachers have the tendency to let their students passed in order for the students to enroll in the next level in coming school year. They are so good they don't like to see failing marks in the report card of their students and just hoping that they will be good in due time. At times, lack of patience, perseverance and love in teaching dumb students is also a factor. Well, this is just my own observation. So let me know if I'm wrong.

Answer 2

Some causes of non-readers in schools in the Philippines today include lack of access to reading materials, limited teacher training in literacy instruction, inadequate parental involvement in promoting reading at home, and the prevalence of digital distractions that compete with reading. Economic factors, such as poverty and the need for children to work to support their families, can also contribute to non-reading.

Answer 3

Illiteracy in the Philippines may be because of several factors like:

1. poor families can't afford to send their children to school

2. some people in very remote places have no access to schools, books, learning materials or teachers

3. some would rather work at an early age than to go to school or

4. some parents don't want to send their children to school so that they (the children) would work instead
