“Comment on the plan of having 12 years of basic education (grade school and high school).”

“This could be another burden for the impoverished Filipino families who earn less than the minimum wage. However, if the government opts to provide and allocate enough funds to suffice the needs of these people, this could be viewed as a positive way of elevating the abilities of the Filipino youth.”

– James Vincent Cruz  (III BS MIS)

“I am not really convinced [of] the 12-year basic education plan. I pretty much think that it’s just a waste of time and money. A lot of people have graduated from the 10-year basic education who became successful in their field.”

– Angela Padilla (II AB COM)

“Ay, ‘wag na. Magiging magastos lang ‘yun eh. Dapat ayusin nalang nila ‘yung

pagtuturo sa mga bata. Kasi ‘di ba ngayon, hindi natututo ‘yung mga bata kasi minsan masyadong crowded ‘yung mga klase. Siguro dapat damihan nalang ‘yung mga teacher na nagtuturo.”

– Lorna Domingo (Gonzaga Caf Cashier)

“I believe it’s better to have a 12 year program because it exposes children to more, letting them discover their talents and realize their true strengths and interests. This would result in a clearer, surer course and career choice for them, which would turn them into happier individuals.”

– Christabel Corpus (I AB COM)

“Okay yan para hasang-hasa ang mga estudyante.”
