“A ‘seamless’ education system is eyed as platform of reform for the country in the years to come.” This was the statement disclosed by President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo during her speech at the awarding ceremony of the 2009 Ten Outstanding Teachers.
This program, dubbed as the “Main Education Highway framework toward a knowledge-based economy”, is intended to remove the barrier between pre-school, grade school, high school and college.
The seamless education framework, apparently patterned after the learning system in the United States, allows any person of any age to enroll in any subject he wishes, where a high school student can at the same time take up college subjects. (PIA/ESS)
