What is K-12?
It is the educational system employed by most countries
around the world (universal system) wherein compared to the system we had
before there will be TWO more additional levels in high school starting from kindergarten
to grade 12, before pursuing a course in college. The supposedly first-year high school shall now be called
grade 7 and second year as it was called
in the previous system we implemented would be grade 8 till the fourth year
high school now be known as grade 10 so on and so forth.
In K-12, there will
be additional lessons which are mostly focused on skills and ability (some say
TESDA courses’ basic) to prepare the upcoming college freshmen to whatever
career may be pursued. K-12 helps students become more competitive and not be
left-out being compared to graduates of the said system from other countries.
