EDUCATION IN
THE
PHILIPPINES
• Education in the
Philippines is managed
and regulated by the
Department of
Education (DepEd).
EDUCATION IN THE
PHILIPPINES
• DepEd controls the Philippine education system,
including the creation and implementation of the
curriculum and the utilization of funds allotted by
the central government.
• It also manages the construction of schools,
acquisition of books and other school materials,
and the recruitment of teachers of staff.
BASIC
EDUCATION
CURRICULUM
(OLD SYSTEM)
• From 1945 until 2011, the basic
education system was composed
of six years of elementary
education starting at the age of
seven (changed to six later), and
four years of high school
education starting at the age of 12.
 K-12
CURRICULUM
PROGRAM

• In 2011, the country started to
transition from its 10-year
basic educational system to a
K to 12 educational system.
 K-12
CURRICULUM

• The new 12-year system is now
compulsory, along with the
adoption of new curriculum for
all schools (the K to 12 program).
• The transition period will end in
the school year 2017-2018,
which is the graduation date for
the first group of students who
entered the new educational
system.
FUNCTIONS OF

 The two most important goals of education for the individual
and society are productive citizenry and self-actualization.
 Productive citizenry refers to an idea that a citizen can
create opportunities to become productive.
 Self-actualization refers to a desire for self-fulfillment. If
an individual’s self-fulfillment is through achieving his
dreams and aspirations in life, once these are achieved, he
reaches the level of self-actualization.
PRIMARY EDUCATION AS A
HUMAN RIGHT
• The Universal Declaration of Human Rights
states that everyone has the right to
education. Education has to be free and
compulsory, it should be made generally
available.
• (UNESCO), education is a fundamental
human right and essential for the exercise of
all other human rights. This promotes
freedom and empowerment and yields
important development benefits.
• Education is a powerful tool by which
economically and socially
marginalized adults and children to
lift themselves out of poverty and
participate fully as citizens.
• In the Philippines, primary Education
is considered a right of a child. This is
enshrined in the 1987 Philippine
Constitution.
FORMAL
EDUCATION
• Formal education refers to the
systematic and deliberate process of
hierarchically structured and
sequential learning corresponding to
the general concept of elementary
and secondary level of schooling. It
usually takes place in a classroom
setting and provided by trained
teaching and non-teaching staff.

demands of formal schooling.

EDUCATION
(SPED)
• refers to the education of
persons who are physically,
mentally, emotionally, socially
or culturally different from so
called “normal” individuals,
such that they require
modification of school practices
to develop their potential.
INFORMAL
EDUCATION
• It is a lifelong process of learning by which every person acquires and
accumulates knowledge, skills, attitudes and insights from daily
experiences at home, at work, at play and from life itself.
• Informal learning can come from a licensed teacher if they teach you
something outside of the curriculum, but under informal education,
anyone can be a teacher regardless of credentials or whether or not they
have a teaching license. In fact, it’s most likely that your first informal
teachers are your parents and the people you lived with growing up
INFORMAL
EDUCATION
• And unlike formal education
which stops at a certain age or
until you graduate or decide to
leave an educational institution, it
is possible for you to continue
learning informally. Even fully-
grown middle-aged adults can
continue to benefit from informal
learning as long as they are willing
to learn for their own benefit.
NON-FORMAL
EDUCATION
• It is an organized educational
activity that takes placed outside a
formal set up or outside the
framework of the formal system to
provide selected types of learning
to a segment of the population.
• It has no age limit, even adults can
take part in an age limit non-
formal education program.
 EXAMPLE OF NON-
FORMAL EDUCATION
ALTERNATIVE LEARNING
SYSTEM (ALS)
• Alternative Learning System (ALS) is a
parallel learning system in the
Philippines that provides a practical
option to the existing formal instruction.
When one does not have or cannot
access formal education in schools, ALS
is an alternate or substitute. ALS
includes both the non-formal and
informal sources of knowledge and
skills.
SITUATION IN NON-FORMAL
EDUCATION
• Many Filipinos do not have a chance to attend
and finish formal basic education due to many
reasons. Some drop out from schools while some
do not have schools in their communities. Since
every Filipino has a right to free basic education,
non-formal education are established to provide
all Filipinos the chance to have access to and
complete basic education in a mode that fits their
distinct situations and needs.
 WHY EDUCATION IS
POWERFUL?
• Education allows us to better understand
the world in which we live. Through
education, we have become thoughtful
about what happens around us. We
observe things from multiple perspectives
and not only from the one they tell us.
Education interconnects and equates us as
a species.
“Education is the most powerful weapon
you can use to change the world.”
