However, each implementation of educational reforms would have lots of issues to contend. This study explored the K to12 Senior High School (SHS) Program implementation experiences of the principals and teachers. It employed a case study design, analyzing personal experiences and views to understand and provide insights and recommendations about the K to 12 Basic Education Program (specifically Grade 11), based on the experiences of principals and teachers from Senior High Schools in Bohol, Philippines. Two (2) sets of researcher-designed interview guides were used to conduct unstructured interviews. Thematic analysis was applied in analysing the data.There were three emergent themes that were developed from the experiences of the research participants, such as: K to 12 Transition Management, K to 12 Implementation Challenges, and Mitigating Measures.
