Abstract

This study examines parental preferences between the K-12 and K-10 curricula in the Philippines, focusing on four key indicators: college readiness, employability, financial burden, and time consumption. Anchored in a descriptive quantitative approach, the research surveyed 600 parents of elementary students from three public schools in the province of Laguna using a 4-point Likert scale questionnaire. Results reveal that while parents generally view both curricula as capable of preparing students for college and employment, the K-10 curriculum is slightly favored in terms of financial practicality and shorter duration. A t-test analysis also showed significant gender-based differences, with mothers perceiving K-12 as more burdensome in time and cost. These findings highlight the relevance of understanding household-level experiences amid ongoing policy debates, particularly proposals to remove senior high school as a college prerequisite. The study underscores the need to align educational reforms with the real capacities and expectations of Filipino families.
