The Department of Education is set to remove Mother Tongue as a subject for Grades 1 to 3 to decongest the existing curriculum, Education Undersecretary Epimaco Densing III said Monday.
"We will decongest the 50 minutes of learning Mother Tongue as a subject. There is no need to put Mother Tongue as a subject for children because this is already their everyday language in school, in the community and within the family. This [time for Mother Tongue subject] will be reallocated to our national reading program and national math program," he added.
"Ipapasok itong [pagtanggal sa mother tongue as subject] sa revised K to 10 curriculum. Nasa gitna kami ng pagfa-finalize ng K to 10 curriculum, and we are informing you," he said.
