K-12 int’l confab set in Pangasinan Jan. 19-21

AN international conference-workshop on the K-12 program of the Department of Education will be held at the Sison Auditorium in Lingayen on January 19 to 21, to be hosted by the provincial government.

Dr. Marot Nelmida-Flores of the University of the Philippines, a native of San Carlos City, said the international conference-workshop, called “Addressing the K to 12 Curricular Enhancement in the Philippine Education 2012”, will be attended by the country’s educators and speakers from Australia, Japan, and the United States.

Education Secretary Armin Luistro will be in attendance as well as officials of the Commission on Higher Education and the Department of Science and Technology, and congressmen who have been at the forefront of education concerns.

K-to-12 (Kindergarten to 12th grade) is a DepEd program, which seeks to expand the country's basic education to 12 years from the current 10 years to make Filipino high schools at par with the standards in other countries.
