Are you in favor in K-12?

Answer 1

I attended the meeting about K12 curriculum. Starts with the usual elementary level from Kinder to Grade 6, then Grade 7 to 10 called Junior High, with graduation then Grade 11 to 12 called Senior High with another graduation. Senior High is the preparation for College where the students will be given elective subjects in accordance with what course they want to take up. Honestly, I'm not in favor of this K12. Why? Two years of additional expenses, two years of additional hardships for the children and more students will not be able to finish their education because some parents will not be able to afford it. The quality of education should be the one given the improvement. Teachers should be more well-trained. There are too many poor schools, no decent toilets, lack of classrooms, lack of books and other facilities that the students needed.There are topics in the subjects that are not important to take up and will not be needed when the students look for a job. so just to line up with other countries DepEd decided to add 2 years more.

Answer 2

Our country has left behind and it's basically because we have lack of education that turns out to be overpopulated then poverty and increase of crime rates in order to survive. It's hard to rule a state that has lot's of barbarians because they are not well educate. Adding 2 years in our basic education will help us to be more mature and ready to what course we fit in. k+12 is not a waste of time and money because in the near future you can earn good salary and profession. Just imagine on the other country a Judge in their supreme court can earn 1 MILLION a month compare to a Filipino worker that can earn it on min. rate for 9 years. See the difference? The government gives us k+12 now it's on our hands to improve ourselves because no one can help you except your own will. There's nothing wrong to DREAM and AIM BIG. I just love our country so much that hurts me to see our differences on the rich countries that their nationals have and enjoys their DECENT LIVING unlike here you can see lot's of people living in streets begging for money,naked and famine. We should process and develop now. God please bless our country.
