Filipino education

Filipino education is a system designed to develop knowledge, skills, and values among students in the Philippines. It includes basic education (kindergarten to Grade 12), technical-vocational programs, higher education (colleges and universities), and various adult learning opportunities. The system aims to prepare learners for personal development, employment, and civic participation. It incorporates lessons in Filipino culture, language, and history, emphasizing adaptability to local and global needs. The Department of Education (DepEd) oversees basic education, while higher education is managed by the Commission on Higher Education (CHED). Despite progress, challenges include ensuring equitable access and quality education across diverse regions.
