PBBM gives DepEd a year to revise K to 12 curriculum READ MORE:
“The President gave us a timeline of around a year to finish the review,” Poa told CNN Philippines’ The Source.
“We are trying to decongest our curriculum to focus on the essential subjects and the basics, like math, reading, science,” he said. The chair of the House Committee on Basic Education and Culture on Wednesday said it is crucial to introduce adjustments to the K to 12 curriculum that will equip graduates with the necessary skills and competencies to make them employable.
“Just like what Vice President Sara said, we need to start with curriculum adjustment. Because these are what [industries] are looking for—the competencies, skills, talents. We must equip our students with these and build their capacity. That’s why we need to adjust the curriculum to make it simplified and attuned to the needs of the Filipino youth who want to get jobs after K to 12,” he said.
