K to 12 Program (PH) - my personal opinion

What is K to 12 Basic Education Program?

The K to 12 Program covers Kindergarten and 12 years of basic education (six years of primary education, four years of Junior High School, and two years of Senior High School [SHS]) to provide sufficient time for mastery of concepts and skills, develop lifelong learners, and prepare graduates for tertiary education, middle-level skills development, employment, and entrepreneurship.

Here's my opinion

I don't like this system/program. Why? Because for me it add more years for the students. And it requires more funds to support the students. They can't graduate at the age of 20 if they will pursue a 4 year course on college.

A 2 year is a long time for students. And it need money to support it. Not all parents can support it, even the old program still a lot of parents can't support. So we have a lot of "Out of school Youths". And because of that a lot of student may stop in going to school for that reason.

The government don't have much classrooms for the students and they wish to add more classes and schedules? What's wrong with you guys? You must remember that we don't have classrooms for everybody. Think of it first!

They say that "to provide sufficient time for mastery and concepts". That's OK if the parents can support it. If not? Lucky to those students who have parents that can support. Unfortunate to those who can't? That's silly.

I don't believe that it's the length of schooldays makes the students have a job after they graduated. No it's not. The government must have a job for all. Even if we used this K to 12 program but still the government don't provide jobs for the graduates, it's still useless.

What you think?
