Govt to give private schools billions

to implement K-12 - DepEdThe government is going to spend between P13.2 to 19.8 billion in

taxpayer's money to send public school students to Grade 11 under theeducation departmentsK-12 program in 2016, a ranking education officialsaid.

This amount will double in 2017, when those in Grade 11 move on toGrade 12 and a new batch takes their place.

The funds will be disbursed via government vouchers payable todirectly to private schools offering K-12. Government schools do not offersenior high school.

Education Undersecretary Francisco Varela downplayed the seeminglyhuge sums, saying it would cost the same if the public school system were toimplement the senior high school component of K-12. And Varela, who is incharge of finance and administration, also pointed out that there would beless hassle by simply paying the private schools.

DepEd will release the monetary equivalent of the vouchers directly to

the private schools twice a year.
