Filipino Schools Today. The education in the Philippines is modelled after the old American
educational system comprising of kindergarten, elementary school, high school and tertiary
school. Introduction of the system begins with its extensive and relatively inclusive system
of higher education. But due to several political and social revolutions happened in the
Philippines, the education was plagued by the long-term deterioration caused by urban and
rural disparities.
Education seamlessly does not cohere with the generations needs as the system
cannot provide adequate solutions to the needs of the 21st century children. Plurality, as
one of the major factors affecting the education continues to eradicate more the system.
The increasing number of population and students admitted in schools, facilities have long
run on serving the needs of its students. However on the year 2011-2012, a new educational
system was implemented, the K-12 education which extends secondary level to two (2)
years. Its objective is to strengthen more the education that the old system did not meet.
Filipino Schools Tomorrow. On the height of the implementation of K-12, Filipino schools
are deemed to be more progressive and smart. It should answer the needs of the students
as well as meet its primary goals and objective efficiently correcting the failures of the old
educational system. As learning styles and spaces evolve or change, students are expected
to be more oriented in process-based and holistic learning approaches rather than the
output based approach in which sets quota among the capacity of students on learning. As
learning is the hub of the community, there is a significant role in each member in a
community in order to nurture their schools.
