ROLE OF THE COMMISSION ON HIGHER EDUCATION

The Enhanced Basic Education Act of 2013, RA 10533, outlines the role of CHED in this reform, which is fourfold:

2. Teacher training and education (Section 7) – CHED is also mandated to partner with Dep Ed and other institutions for teacher training and education, including making sure that the curricula of teacher education institutions meet standards of quality. This ensures that the teachers of the next generation are equipped to teach young Filipinos under the new K12 system.

3. Career guidance and counseling (Section 9) – CHED is mandated to partner with Department of Education and DOLE in career guidance and counseling activities for high school students. Helping students choose what courses to take in college can help them pursue careers that lead to better jobs.

4. Strategizing through the transition (Section 12) – CHED is mandated to help formulate and implement strategies to ensure a smooth transition into the new K12 system. This includes making sure that the college curriculum is revised to complement the new K12 curriculum.

CHED is also mandated to implement strategies to protect higher education institutions and their employees from severe losses during the transition.

Impact on the higher education sector

1. Curriculum

2. People

First, K12 makes it necessary to adjust the college

curriculum, to make sure that college subjects build upon it

in the best way.

Second, K12 impacts those working in the higher education sector: as senior high school is rolled out nationwide this 2016, students go through two more years of high school instead of going straight to college, resulting in low enrollment in colleges and universities nationwide.
