“Education is the key to the long-
term problems of the country. If
we fix basic education, we fix the
long-term problems of the
country. And if we fix the
country’s problems, we will build a
truly strong society we can
proudly call the Philippines.”
“We need to add two years to our basic
education… I want at least 12 years for our
public school children to give them an even
chance at succeeding.”
President Benigno Simeon C. . Aquino III

The 1987 Philippine Constitution
States that:
“The State shall establish, maintain, and support a complete, adequate, and
integrated system of education relevant to the needs of the people and the
society.”

What are the benefits of this
program?

Benefits to individuals and families,
1. A decongested academic
workload, giving students more
time to master competencies and for
co-curricular activities and
community involvement, thus,
allowing for a more holistic
development;

2. Graduates will possess competencies
and skills relevant to the job market
and they will be prepared for higher
education;

4. The potential annual earnings of a K
to 12 graduate will be higher compared
to the earnings of a 10-year high school
graduate;

5. Graduates will be recognized abroad.

Benefits of K to 12 for the society and the
economy
1. It will contribute to economic growth.
Studies show that improvements in the quality
of education increases GDP growth.
According to the DepEd (2010), studies in the
country have reflected that an additional year of school
increases the earnings by 7.5% and that improvements
in the quality of education will enable the GDP grow by
2 – 2.2%.

2. It will facilitate
the recognition of
Filipino graduates and
professionals in other
countries.
3. A better
educated society
provides a sound
foundation for
long-term socio-
economic
development.

We are for difference,
We value and celebrate
difference
Until that difference
No longer make a
difference!
-DepEd SCS-

If education could be
the only best option
to secure the future
of our youth, all of us
are here to support
this option.
