STATUS OF K+12
 Bill approved on second reading last
October…just last November 19 it was
approved for third and final reading.
 The government is ready to implement the
K+12 program … DepED Secretary assurance.
 DepEd continues to address the lingering
problems of shortage in classrooms, qualified
teachers, sanitation facilities, textbooks, and
school seats.
UPDATE FROM K TO12 STEERING COMMITTEE
• Committee is composed
of members from the
DepED, CHED and TESDA
• Responsible for gathering
necessary information
that will supplement the
queries on th proposed
model opted to use “K to
12” which highlights not
only the additional years
in basic education but the
design of the curriculum
as well.
IMPACT OF K + 12 ON
PRIVATE EDUCATION
Issues, Challenges and Opportunities
for Private Education
• Resource constraint issues for DepEd
–Need
for DepEd to meet classroom, building and teacher development
demands
•
Shortages in Qualified teachers
–These
are only for Grades 1-10
–These needs geometrically increase with introduction of Grades 11 and 12
• Sustainability Issues for Some Basic Education Schools
–Private
HS at capacity need to build to handle grades 11 and 12 (SHS)
–Many HS don’t have finances or space to put up additional classrooms and
resources
• Opportunities for Others
–Build
for 11 and 12; offer its services to others
–Expand mission, through reaching out to more
As the number of enrollees are expected to
decline by 2016, the NPV of losses for private
schools and colleges nationwide amounting to
P158 billion
― Lost cohorts during transition
― Smaller incoming cohorts (reduction of 16%) due to
grades 11 and 12)
 The potential displacement of college
professors and tech-voc instructors during
the introduction of senior high school from
2016 onwards.
CURRENT REMEDIES BEING
CONSIDERED
1. Move Into Voc-Tech
• Voc-Tech expansion
–HEIs considering expanding into voc-tech
–HS graduates at 18 may opt to forego
college, look into short-term training
–Market seen to grow?
3. Improve Student Financing
• Expanding ESC
• Introducing a national student loan program
― student loans in the Philippines at close to
zero penetration, compared to average of 38%
in ASEAN countries
― 2 bills now in the Senate (Angara) and the
House (Romulo)

• if the Committee or the Department for that
matter, has the formula as to how the senior
high schools shall be allocated?
• those who can go to college under the new
scheme must be a graduate of senior high school.
• paano ngayon iyong mga ibang barangay na may
junior high school, walang senior high school? So,
the problem of access is there. We will be back to
square one, Mr. Speaker. So, my first question is,
what is the formula in determining—in this high
school, mayroon tayong senior,
• The DepEd will also be providing the voucher
system and the service contracting to augment
the deficiency of present existing facilities in
areas that cannot provide, as you say, senior high
school.
• senior high schools will be built in catchment
areas so that graduates will have somewhere to
go for the particular example that you have
mentioned.
• The second question is, if you have a voucher, is the amount
involved uniform? I mean, if not throughout the Philippines, at
least, in specific localities or provinces. Kung uniform, ang ibig ko
pong sabihin kung iyong isang voucher, for example, ang cost is
P15,000 yearly, ito po ba ay P15,000 sa lahat?
• REP. OCAMPO. Mr. Speaker, at the moment, the Government
Assistance to Students and Teachers in Private Education (GASTPE)
costs the government P10,000 for the National Capital Region (NCR)
and P6,500 for outside of Metro Manila. In the discussion regarding
this matter, we were assured that the DepEd is studying the
increase of the GASTPE subsidy for our students, in fact, to P22,000
per student in 2016 which is more than half of what they are
providing for at the moment for this GASTPE subsidy.
how is this public-private
partnership program being done?
that the public-private partnership program of the
government will help solve the shortage of classrooms in our
basic educational system. My question is:
• how is this PPP modality being done and implemented?
• How is the distribution of the school buildings being
done—will it be concentrated in the urban centers like
Metro Manila and others to the prejudice of the rural areas
which need more of these classrooms as those in Metro
Manila?
• The urban centers are being provided with assistance by
the local government units which have some
resources/some remittances to augment the funding of the
Department of Education for the basic educational
requirements of our students.
Currently, the DepEd is mapping in the whole country
through the regional directors, where is the acute need
for classrooms. I would like to reiterate that by 2013, we
would have built the 30,000 classrooms. The question of
the Gentleman from Bohol is: What are the criteria in
choosing where to build the new classrooms? It is entirely
on a need basis. The DepEd will build the classrooms
where there is a need.
• How is the PPP being done? What is the mode of
repayment, et cetera?
• PPP, the initial areas that were chosen were Regions I, IV-A and III
on a pilot basis….. P15 billion …. mode of repayment…10-year
period…rate of interest
• The program of the PPP is to build, lease and transfer. From the
very start, it was already determined—what the cost would be to
build these classrooms. Therefore, there will not be any fluctuation
on the interest because the terms have been determined and
agreed upon from the very start.
• The intention of the Department is to pay, to regularize one-third of
the 22,000 kindergarten teachers by 2013 and, progressively, until
we would have regularized the whole 22,000.
• The DepEd is ready and that is the reason we implemented the
policy that for school year 2012 to 2013, Grade I and Grade VII will
be using the new curriculum. By 2016, with the amount of P42.3
billion, increasing to P50 billion plus for 2017, projecting a high
growth scenario and like I have earlier mentioned, we are going to
address all the shortages in classrooms, teachers, seats, books and
sanitation facilities before 2016.
• all gaps will be addressed by 2014. The creative programs of the
DepEd in enlisting the support of all stakeholders in the Adopt-ASchool program, the private sector, the LGU funds, the Special
Education Fund from the LGU, the donor communities, the donor
institutions and financial institutions, will help us address these
gaps.
• Absorptive capacity of the DepEd has been questioned in terms of
building the classrooms, providing the teachers and preparing the
materials for the K to 12 Program.
• DepED’s commitment to bridge the gap in classrooms, teachers,
seats, textbooks and sanitation facilities by 2014.
• We started with the implementation of the PPP that commits P15
billion over a period of 10 years to deliver 9,000 classrooms.
• Question of readiness and preparedness of DepED in collaboration
with stakeholders in implementing K to 12.
• absorptive capacity of the system
Number of schools
• 38,351 public elementary schools,
• 7,268 high schools
Participation rate
• 91 percent for elementary.
• 62 percent for high school
• how many senior high school students or enrollees is
the DepEd expecting by 2016? Thirty-two percent of
1.1 million would be the yearly average.
CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES
(PESA)
• In this regard, the education system needs to have sufficient classrooms
ready at the opening of school year 2011-2012 to pave the way for the
universalization of kindergarten.
• DepEd plans to pass on K+12 smoothly into the next administration in2016 when
the first batch of senior students enroll in senior high or Grades 11 to 12.Through
this program, DepEd will have to overhaul the curriculum and
solve the shortages of teachers, classrooms, textbooks,
and other problems.
• While the government is convinced that this is a necessary and a long-overdue
step, notwithstanding its obstacles mainly in the financing of education,
some quarters believes otherwise. Hence, there is a need for a continuous
monitoring and evaluation of the program as it progresses and casts the net as
wide as possible in consulting key sectors as it is the biggest education reform
that will be undertaken.
• School-community partnerships on the
ground have shown the way forward in
making schools perform better.
• Government and the private sector must
ensure that these islands of excellence
become the norm for all by scaling up these
successful initiatives.
• Public-Private Partnerships or PPPs must
indeed become part of our education
reform effort.
• As PBEd and others stakeholders of private
education has done, FAPE also commits to
facilitating, encouraging, initiating and
seeing through such partnerships.

The K to 12 Reform underpins the over-all
strategies of DepED to improve the basic
education sector. (Usec. Varela)
Address basic inputs and wipe out shortages
Improve the quality of teachers
Strengthen school-based management
Reform the curriculum
Promote good education governance
DepED has made significant progress
in closing the input gaps
 From June 2010 to October 2012...
 around 27,000 classrooms were built;
 more than 29,000 new teacher items
were created and hired;
 millions of textbooks and chairs were
procured and delivered to our
schools.
 By the end of the school year, the
DepEd’s goal is that there will be no
more shortages of chairs and
textbooks.
 By the end of 2013, the DepEd targets to
eliminate all deficits in classrooms, water and
sanitation facilities and teacher items, a first for
our country since World War II.
 The estimated cost of a five-year period to
transition to a 12-year system is around P150
billion, or P30 billion a year.
• To implement K to 12, the DepEd would
need the amount of P46.2 billion, and for
2017, the amount of P51 billion…to build
the classrooms, fund the teacherrequirement, the books, the laboratory
equipment and others.
• the initiative of the DepEd, and the strides
that our Secretary of Education is doing, in
involving and encouraging the
participation of the private sector and the
other sectors of society, and through
private-public partnerships, we will close
the gap for school building deficits by
2013.
