10. Rationale
 Enhancing the quality of basic education in the Philippines is urgent
and critical.
 The poor quality of basic education is reflected in the low
achievement scores of Filipino students.
 The congested curriculum partly explains the present state of
education.
 This quality of education is reflected in the inadequate preparation
of high school graduates for the world of work or entrepreneurship
or higher education.
 The current system also reinforces the misperception that basic
education is just a preparatory step for education.
 Our graduates are not automatically recognized as professionals
abroad.
 More importantly, the short basic education program affects the
human development of the Filipino children.

13. III. Factors in social change
Stimulating or promoting
factors
Restraining factors

14. SOCIAL INERTIA is present
when, in a socio-cultural
system, the culture for social
change is present in ideas but
is not yet carried out in social
structures.

15. CULTURAL LAG is present
when the social structures for
change are present but not the
norms and ideas of people are
yet won for the culture of
change.

16. Life can either be
accepted or changed. If it
is not accepted, it must
be changed. If it cannot
be change, then it must
be accepted…….
