So K-12 is pushing through!

Edna here in the US we have this law for many years. I find it is good as it prepares the children for class room preparations as well as to socialize and interact with other children their own age. I see you are from Philippines and the same in my opinion should apply, however each country is different so it would depend on the economic structures. But Sending them directly to first grade is a bit too fast in my opinion as they are not use to going to school so K, would be a preparatory stage.

Kindergarten is important. This is the very first formal school experience the children will have. Usually people can recall their first memories just about the time they were in that happy learning the basics year. I do hope this K-12 brings more beneficial results for all of us.

I'm not at all impressed with this K-12 idea. First of all, it's the quality of the education that should be important here and not the length of time a student stays in school. Add to that, most of our public school facilities are either mangled, substandard or simply outdated. I say we should fix the system first before stepping into brand new territories. 'tis all.

Well I think its for the better of the education system here in the philippines and setting standard for an international level. I know many would disapprove because it is not economical basing on the status of most of the filipinos. But, I think giving results would definitely give a positive outlook for filipinos.

Quite frankly, this proposition will be a huge failure especially given the economic hardships of most Filipinos. Adding a year will not solve the problem. Respecting teachers and increasing their salaries will be a better option.
