MANILA — The Department of Education (DepEd) will tackle the current state of basic education
through a report that Vice President and Education Secretary Sara Duterte will present on Jan. 30.
The "Basic Education Report 2023" will specify challenges in basic education and resolutions to
these, DepEd Spokesperson Michael Poa said on Friday.
"Ilalahad natin kung ano po 'yung challenges ng basic education. Aside from that... ang department
ay maglalatag ng mga plans and initiatives para po maresolba itong mga challenges na ito," Poa said.
(We will explain what are the challenges of basic education. Aside from that... the department will
lay out plans and initiatives to resolve these challenges.)
The public is expected to see DepEd's direction in resolving the challenges in the presentation, the
official said, adding that the agency wants "to make every Filipino an education stakeholder."
"We have problems with school facilities, we have problems with our curriculum, which we are
currently reviewing… Nasasabi na nga iyong literacy sa atin, we all know about the learning poverty
report that the World Bank has issued. These are the things that we are aware of and a lot more that
we will be presenting in the [Basic Education Report]," he said.

mentioned in the report.
"Iyong K to 10 po talagang nandun na tayo sa finalization stage. There are still consultations that are
ongoing, but at least palapit na po tayo sa finalization. Pero pagdating sa Grades 11 to 12, we also
already started iyong ating review last November. So right now, ongoing iyong review. And if there
will be additional updates, that will also be included in our Basic Education Report 2023," Poa said.
(About K to 10, we are really in the finalization stage. There are still consultations that are ongoing,
but at least we are getting closer to the finalization. But when it comes to Grades 11 to 12, we also
already started our review last November. So right now, the review is ongoing. And if there will be
additional updates, that will also be included in our Basic Education Report 2023.)
