00:00The Commission on Higher Education will not conduct pilot testing of the proposed reframed general education curriculum.
00:07This comes after teachers, students, and advocacy groups filed a petition and position papers asking CHED not to proceed with
00:13the curriculum overhaul.
00:15The proposed curriculum seeks to reduce general education units from the current 36 to 18.
00:21CHED chairperson Shirley Agrupis says the pilot implementation for the reframed GE curriculum will be moved to 2028 instead.
00:28A groupie says this move will give them time to analyze and study the different manifestations.
00:33The decision is the result of the meeting between CHED, the Department of Education, the 2nd Congressional Commission on Education,
00:40and the Teacher Education Council.
00:42These bodies will also create an interagency technical working group to examine the position papers on the proposal.
00:48As of now, over 250 higher education institutions submitted their stances on the proposed overhaul.
