- 1. THE HISTORY OF THE PHILIPPINES EDUCATION
- 2. CAN ANYONE GIVE ME A LITTLE KNOWLEDGE ABOUT THE HISTORY OF
PHILIPPINES EDUCATION ? QUESTION
- 3. PRE-HISPANIC The education of Pre-Hispanic Filipinos was fit
for the needs of their times. There was no formal schooling.
Parents trained their children informally . Mothers educated their
female children in housekeeping, weaving, basket-making and other
agriculture-related activities. Fathers trained their male children
in hunting, carpentry, agriculture, shipbuilding and mining. Skills
taught would vary on their industries and locations, i.e., whether
highland, lowlands or along seashores. Education was oral,
practical and hands-on
- 4. ALIBATA Alibata is an ancient writing system that was used
in what is now the Philippines. Although it was all but
extinguished by Western colonization,variants of it are still used
in parts of Mindoro and Palawan, and it is also increasingly used
by Filipino youth as a way to express their identity.
- 5. While controlled by colonial rule for several years, once
the Philippines gained their independence they took over control of
the educational system and began to move it in their own direction.
Children in the Philippines are educated in the primary and
secondary school systems for about thirteen to fourteen years,
depending on when they start, after which they complete the College
Entrance Examinations, that allow them to qualify for one of the
many institutions of higher learning. There are both private and
public schools in the Philippines, and on the whole the education
provided by the private schools is much more comprehensive than
that provided by the public school system. In fact, the Philippines
was home to the first modern public schooling system in Asia. It is
also home to the oldest universities, colleges, and vocational
schools. Education has been a priority in the Philippines for
decades, and this is evidenced in the fact that many of the
advancements in education in Asia have been pioneered in the
Philippines.
- 6. During the Pre-Spanish period, education was still
decentralized. Children were provided more vocational training but
lesser academics, which were headed by their parents or by their
tribal tutors. They used a unique system of writing known as the
baybayin. Pre-Spanish Period BAYBAYIN The term Baybay literally
means "to spell in Tagalog. It also known as the alibata, were in
it is the ancient writing system that was used before by the
Filipinos.
- 7. The pre-Spanish system of education underwent major changes
during the Spanish colonization The tribal tutors were replaced by
the Spanish Missionaries TRIBAL TUTORSTRIBAL TUTORS Education was
informal and unstructured . Children were provided with vocational
training and less academics by parents and houses of tribal tutors
SPANISH MISSIONARIESSPANISH MISSIONARIES education was
religion-centered education for the elite only Spanish is

- 8. SPANISH When the Spanish first arrived in the Philippines,
education of the indigenous people was mainly viewed as the duty of
religious organizations. Parish friars put forth great effort to
teach the indigenous people to read believing that literacy was the
key to better lifestyles. EDUCATION DURING THE SPANISH REGIME
- 9. EDUCATION DURING THE SPANISH REGIME The Friars establish
parochial schools linked with Churches to teach catechism to the
natives. Education was manage, supervised, and controlled By the
friars. Spanish education played a major role in that
transformation. The oldest universities, colleges, vocational
schools and the first modern public education system in Asia were
created during the colonial period The focus of education during
the Spanish Colonization of the Philippines was mainly religious
education. The Catholic doctrine schools that were set up initially
became parochial schools which taught reading and writing along
with catechism
- 10. The Spanish missionaries established schools immediately
after reaching the islands. The Augustinians opened a school in
Cebu in 1565. The Franciscans, in 1577, immediately took to the
task of teaching improving literacy, aside from the teaching of new
industrial and agricultural techniques. Jesuits followed in 1581
The Dominicans in 1587, which they started a school in their first
mission at Bataan.
- 11. In 1863, an educational decree mandated the establishment
of free primary schools in each town, one for boys and one for
girls, with the precise number of schools depending on the size of
the population. There were 3 grades: entrada, acenso, and termino.
The curriculum required the study of Christian doctrine, values and
history as well as reading and writing in Spanish, mathematics,
agriculture, etiquette, singing, world geography, and Spanish
history. Girls were also taught sewing. The decree also provided
for a normal school run by the Jesuits to educate male teachers in
Manila. Normal schools for women teachers were not established
until 1875, in Nueva Caceres. Despite the Decree of 1863, basic
education in the Philippines remained inadequate for the rest of
the Spanish period. Often, there were not enough schools built.
Teachers tended to use corporal punishment.
- 12. After the Spanish colonial government was overthrown, the
schools established during the Spanish era were closed down for a
time by Emilio Aguinaldos government. The Malolos Constitution made
elementary education compulsory and provided for free schooling.
The Universidad Literaria de Filipinas, which provided courses in
law, medicine, surgery, pharmacy, and notarianship, was established
by Aguinaldo on 19 October 1898. He also set up the Military
Academy of Malolos and decreed that all diplomas awarded by UST
after 1898 be considered null and void. The curricula of schools
were not much different from those under Spanish domination. While
Tagalogwas established as the national language by the Constitution
of Biak-na-Bato, reading, writing and literary studies in Spanish
were still given emphasis.
