The distribution and usage of educational materials bearing questionable contents must end, President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. ordered, calling the contents “horror stories” in the field of education.

During his first State of the Nation Address , which lasted for over an hour, the President said he wants an end to the production and utilization of “poor quality” educational materials, stressing that learners must only be provided “the best.”

Marcos also put a spotlight on more educational matters such as the country’s standing in international rankings, so he zeroed in on improving in the field of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics and the English language. “The raw talent is there in our young people. It is up to our educational system to develop and to refine that great pool of talent,” he said.

“Therefore, the question of our medium of instruction must be continuously re-examined to maintain that advantage that we have established as an English-speaking people,” he added.The Chief Executive reiterated his intention to push through the resumption of face-to-face classes this year.
