Education is a good investment. It leads to good outcomes that our country could benefit the most. Reforming educational goals and standards could be the best solution to improve the education system in the Philippines. Quality education has been manifested thru time. This is due to different factors affecting access to quality education especially at the early stage of education. One of the main reasons is poverty, resulting in absenteeism, high dropout rates, child labor, and under nutrition of students affecting the classroom and academic performance in schools. This reflects the income inequality correlates with educational inequality. Lack job opportunities and unemployment of Filipinos are mainly due to poor education qualifications and skills. Moreover, the growing population and widespread corruption lead to short of fund spending in education. This implies poor literacy rates and unmet educational standards. Teachers’ qualifications and performance could also contribute to the quality of learners they make.Focusing on teachers’ welfare and pedagogy without compromising their health and well being could contribute a great impact in education. This may also include equal opportunities for proper trainings and seminars to teachers and salary increase.
