MSEditorial Decongesting the DepEd curriculum After 10 years of implementation of the K-12 basic education program, the Department of Education has conceded its curriculum is “congested.”
As in, for instance, EDSA traffic tied up in Gordian knots and unmoving for hours on end?
To deal with this, the revision of the curriculum aims to produce more job-ready and responsible graduates, DepEd says, and make the curriculum relevant to produce competent, job-ready, active, and responsible citizens. These learning areas will focus on foundational skills in literacy and numeracy in the early grades, particularly among disadvantaged students.
