House Basic Education Committee Chairperson and Pasig lawmaker Roman Romulo on Sunday said that the law discontinuing the use of the mother tongue as a medium of instruction from kindergarten to grade 3 could help improve the quality of education in the country.In an ambush interview, the House leader underscored the importance of ensuring that education is being delivered through languages that are most familiar to the learners.
The proposed measure which seeks to cease the use of mother tongue for kinder to grade 3 and provide for its optional implementation in monolingual classes lapsed into law on Saturday without President Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr.'s signature.With Republic Act No. 12027, the medium of instruction shall revert to Filipino and, until otherwise provided by law, English.Meanwhile, the regional languages shall serve as auxiliary media of instruction.
