THE CALL
FOR
EXCELLENCE
THE PURPOSE OF EDUCATION
NATIONAL REPORTS CALL FOR REFORM
Characterization of excellence as symptomatic
of the Americanization of higher education.
1
By the early 1980s national attention began to
focus on the educational need for excellence
and higher educational standards particularly
the neglected  average students  and not just
the disadvantaged or the talented.
OVERVIEW ON THE POLICY REPORT
DECLINE ACHIEVEMENT AND
COMPETENCY
1. Average achievement scores on the
scholastic Aptitude(SAT) declined
steadily. Average verbal score fell 34
points and mathematical score
dropped 10 points.
2. By 1996 only 24 percent of eight-grade
students achieved math competency
for their level.
2
Example:
1. Average Schools that do not
have computer laboratories
have an MPS of 79.3%
2. Schools that have adequate
textbooks in Math have an MPS
of 73.0%
3. Schools where teachers
discuss the lesson the whole
period (chalk-talk method),
then ask questions if there is
remaining time have an MPS of
67.7%
4. Schools where quizzes are
regularly given have an MPS of
68.4%

INTERNATIONAL
COMPARISON
International comparisons of
statistical data on national
elementary, secondary and higher
education school systems provide
feedback on how education systems
have improved over time, how
equitable they are, and students
compare to their peers around the
world. 4
FUNCTIONAL ILLITERACY
In the Philippines , at least nine out of
10 children aged 10 struggle to read
and write simple text, according to
World Banks statistics on learning
poverty in 2021.
The country ranked lowest among 79
countries that participated in a 2018
international reading literacy
assessment.(PISA) 5
STUDENT TEACHER
RATIOS
These problem have occurred
despite a relatively good student-
techer ratio approximately 16 : 1
student per teacher in the U.S,
ratios of over 25 : 1 in Japan and
Korea. 45 : 1 in the Philippines.
6
For School Year 2017-2018, the teacher-student ratio
in the Philippines is 1:31 for the elementary level,
1:36 for Junior High School level, and 1:31 for Senior
High School level

IMPORTANCE OF
TECHNOLOGY
Technology and computer courses are
mentioned often and at the drawn of
twenty-first century the need to improve
students technology skills and upgrade
school technology is almost a mantra.
10
Based on a 2021 survey by the World Bank on low-
income households, only 40 percent have access to
the internet while 95.5 percent of the same study
subjects used paper-based learning modules and
materials.

HIGHER STANDARDS, MORE
RIGOROUS REQUIREMENTS
Tougher standards and tougher courses, and a
majority propose that colleges raises their
admission requirements. Most of the reports talk
about increasing homework, time in school,
upgrading teachers certification. Overall the
report stress academic achievement, not the
whole child, and increased productivity not
relevancy or humanism.
11
SCHOOL PLAY TOO MANY ROLES
Schools are pressed with so many
social roles; that the school cannot
meet all these expectations; and that
the schools are in danger of loosing
its sight to their key purpose -
teaching basic skills and core
academic subjects, new skills for
computer use, and higher-level
cognitive skills for the world of work
and technology.
12
RISING TIDE OF MEDIOCRITY
Mediocrity is defined as a paralysis of
an educational institution that
maintains the status quo regardless of
its effectiveness, is content with its
limited capacity to produce
excellence, believes that improvement
is out of its reach, and masquerades
mediocrity as excellence.
13
DEVELOPING NATIONAL
STANDARDS
In line with the new professional
standards for teachers, the
Department of Education (DepEd),
through the Teacher Education
Council (TEC), issues this DepEd Order
entitled National Adoption and
Implementation of the Philippine
Professional Standards for Teachers
(PPST)

lower and higher education levels.
The Philippines has finally embarked
on its most ground-breaking change
to the schooling system in decades,
the K-12 reform.

QUESTION
SUMMING UP
24
The concept of excellence can be defined in many ways. It has to do with eminence(high
value) but it is also linked to quality insurance and quality control.
The purpose of education are influenced by changing social forces as well as by educational
philosophies and theories.
We expect the school to be the key instrument for solving our technological or social problems
and preparing our work force for the future.
Schools have been encouraged to provide a world-class quality education, with an emphasis on
high achievement and the general improvement of outcomes for all.
Amanda Scott, a brand new eight-grade teacher at Oxford Middle School, just finished her first post observation
conference with Ms. Renee, her principal. Although a positive and upbeat conference, Ms. Renees comments keep ringing in
Amandas head. Amanda Ms. Renee said,  its clear that you enjoy your students and they responded well to the structure
and expectations youve created. I was pleased with the flow of the lessons and the students paid attention to you and to
each other. But when you interview for this position, you describe yourself as facilitator of active learning and your portfolio
showed that you understood that approach. Now, though, what I see in your class is mostly is teacher directed: lecture,
vocabulary drills, worksheets, and so on. How are you building the students capabilities for creativity, autonomy, and critical
thinking? Wheres the Amanda Scott we interviewed? Next time I visit, I would like to see that Amanda in action.
 How could I get away from what I believe in? Amanda scold herself. The problem, she realizes, was that in her first few
weeks as a teacher, feeling unsure of herself, she tried to be safe, to make sure her students were getting a basic foundation.
Now it is the time to change them and herself.
Late that day, while Amanda and several other teachers were eating lunch in the teachers lounge, someone picked up
the local morning paper, which had a lead article about the result of a statewide assessment program administered to eight
graders. Composite scores for every middle school in the metropolitan region were listed, and Oxford Middle was rank the
bottom third. Amandas school made marginal improvement over the last yeas test in reading and math scores, but lost
ground on the writing portion of the test.
Everyone in the lounge lamented the newspapers remark that the schools progress was not significant. They
express pride in the advances of their students made. They argued that most schools with comparable populations of low-
income and actually diverse students have not shown gains as great as Oxford Middle.
Bill OConneli pointed to another article in the newspaper. This one featured members of a Citizens Education Advisory
Council complaining about schools performance on the assessment program. Their demand was for back-to-basic approach
with more emphasis on factual knowledge and less on critical thinking and innovative and time-consuming teaching strategies
Amanda asked herself, What should I do?
1. What philosophical orientation is being expresses by each party in this dilemma?
2. Which of the orientations above best reflects your own personal philosophy of
education?
3. If none, does, can you think of someone who would represent your philosophy in this
dilemma, such as a concerned parent or business leader in the community?
4. What will you do if you were a teacher at Oxford Middle School faced with this conflict
in educational goals? Do you see any way to achieve both goals?

Editor's Notes

  1. Why is there a need to call for excellence in education
  2. Americanization Characterization of excellence. An average student who performs at a level that is considered to be typical or typical for their age group or for the group of students to which they belong. Disadvantage students are those not having the standard of living conditions, education, etc. that most people have. Talented students these are students who learn more quickly and independently than most students their own age. So there is a need for educational reforms based on the national reports this in order to transform educational structures with the aim of raising the quality of education in a country. Some of these report will be shown on the next slides.
  3. At this point, the 75% is not yet met. Our educational body needs to upgrade find ways on how to improve our test results. And after which k-12 was created. Nat target the performance of the children. But also the teachers, principals and administrators
  4. ASEAN integration. Can somebody give us short information of what is ASEAN integration? Trade liberation, regional economic integration, and free trade. These are the Key drivers. Here in the Philippines we need to ensure the strength of the Philippine country brand and that includes the people. align our branding initiatives with that of the ASEAN region
  5. Philippine International Student Assessment Functional illiterate - consists of reading and writing skills that are inadequate "to manage daily living and employment tasks that require reading skills beyond a basic level. For example, you instructed your studnts to bring picture and CAR issued during the assessment in claiming their Nc certs. Then 1 student ask. Unsay dal.on pagclaim sa cert. A SHS Students know how to read and write but when you ask questions about what he has read. He cannot answer. Meaning poor reading comprehension.
  6. The student-teacher ratio has been found to be one of the strongest indicators of student success and engagement in class. The fewer students each teacher works with, the more closely they're able to adapt their teaching to the specific learning styles. When the number of students decreases, teachers can allocate more time to cater to the individual learning needs of each pupil.
  7. Filipino students achieved an average of 353 points in Mathematical Literacy; this is significantly lower than the OECD average (489 points) and is classified as below Level 1 proficiency.
  8. Technology not only provides students with access to countless online resources, but also aids them in the learning process. Free Internet Access in Public Places Act
  9. In all walks of life, when quality really matters we put systems into place - with rules, practices, incentives, penalties, and supports - that help all of us to maintain high standards. We do so because we understand that individuals do their best, are the most productive, and reach higher goals when they are working in a system that supports their best efforts. Productivity without wellbeing is not sustainable. maintaining a balance between the call for excellence in education and the need of people. Education is not just about knowing a lot but also about being able to do something with that knowledge and skills, and feeling responsible for that.
  10. Many of the reports concern not only with academic productivity but also with national productivity, link human capital with economic capital. Investment to school would mean investment in the economy. Our basic role is to develop our students qualifications. We also train good citizens, teach moral values . Such as more time on Extra curricular activities, Taking part in one too many extra-curricular activities will cause your kid to lose focus and concentration on his studies
  11. Some signs of mediocrity in schools are the following. Misplaced and discouraged innovation The now is the limit. Unqualified staff Biased governance and leadership.
  12. The goal panel is proposing a tougher standards, comparable to the best in the world; aligning all components of education system with these standards; and strengthening teachers subject-matter knowledge and teaching skills. K-12 program promotes global competency by accelerating mutual recognition of Filipino graduates and professionals in other countries
  13. Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) (SDG) are a collection of 17 global goals aimed at improving the planet and the quality of human life around the world by the year 2030. Lets focus on SGD 4
  14. The goal panel is proposing a tougher standards, comparable to the best in the world; aligning all components of education system with these standards; and strengthening teachers subject-matter knowledge and teaching skills.
  15. Target 4.b: By 2020, substantially expand globally the number of scholarships available to developing countries, in particular least developed countries, small island developing States and African countries, for enrolment in higher education, including vocational training and information and communications technology, technical, engineering and scientific programmes, in developed countries and other developing countrie
  16. Based on discussion paper The Philippines Voluntary National Review on the Sustainability and Development Goals.
  17. The goal panel is proposing a tougher standards, comparable to the best in the world; aligning all components of education system with these standards; and strengthening teachers subject-matter knowledge and teaching skills.
  18. The concept of excellence can be defined in many ways. It has to do with high value) but it is also linked to quality insurance and quality control. This is by benchmarking our educational institutions or educational systems, in order to gain efficiency in students educational education and in learning. The purpose of education are influenced by changing social forces as well as by educational philosophies and theories. We expect the school to be the key instrument for solving our technological or social problems and preparing our work force for the future. Thus, Schools have been encouraged to provide a world-class quality education, with an emphasis on high achievement and the general improvement of outcomes for all. Educational Reform is necessary to restructure the educational standards to reflect the ever-evolving contemporary ideals of social, economic, and our political political culture aswell. Revision of curriculum means to strengthen the curriculum that is capable of producing more competent, job-ready, active and responsible citizens.
