Senate Joint Resolution No. 10, introduced by Senators Juan Edgardo “Sonny” Angara, Sherwin Gatchalian, Grace Poe, Franklin Drilon, and Joel Villanueva aims to create the EDCOM, which will be tasked to review, assess, and evaluate the formal, non-formal, informal and alternative learning systems, including continuing systems of education at all levels.
Out of 79 countries, the Philippines in the PISA study ranked last for Reading Literacy and second to the last for Mathematics and Science Literacy. The first EDCOM was established in 1990 during then President Corazon Aquino’s term through Joint Resolution No. 2 passed by Congress and was headed by former Senate President Edgardo J. Angara.
The senator lamented that 25 years have passed since the EDCOM report came out but challenges remain in the education sector that have yet to be addressed. “The demands of the workplace are constantly changing and so are the challenges to education brought about by the Fourth Industrial Education,” Angara pointed out.
