Legal Bases of
Values
EducationC.C. Relleve, EdD, RGC
1. The Philippine Constitution of 1987
mandates in its preamble the building “of a
just and humane society” and establishing
a government that shall embody our ideals
and aspirations, promote the common
good, conserve and develop our patrimony
and secure to ourselves and our country the
blessings of independence and democracy
under the rule of law and a regime of truth,
justice, freedom, love, equality and peace.
2. The educational policy statement in
Article XIV, Sec. 3 clearly mandates all
educational institutions to “inculcate
patriotism and nationalism, foster love of
humanity, respect for human rights,
appreciation of the role of national heroes
in the historical development of the
country, teach the rights and duties of
citizenship, strengthen ethical and spiritual
value, develop moral character and
creative thinking, broaden scientific and
technological knowledge and promote
vocational efficiency”.
3. Based on the mandate of the 1987
constitution, the DECS Values Education
Program authored by the then DECS
Secretary, Dr. Lourdes R. Quisumbing, has
been developed to serve as a guideline for
the implementation of values education
programs in the three levels of education.
4. It was in 1988 that DECS, through the
leadership of Dr. Quisumbing, made Values
Education as an educational thrust in all the
levels of Philippine education. The new
Secondary School curriculum which was
implemented starting schoolyear 1989-1990
introduced Values Education as a separate
subject while values development was also
integrated in all other subjects in the
curriculum.
5. The content of the four-year Values
Education Program (DECS Order No. 6, s.
1988) is focused on the development of a
fully functioning human person. It develops
through four main concepts of values
development such as the development of
relationship skills with the self, with fellow
human beings, with forces around him and
with the Supreme Being.
Values Education (2002 BEC) The 2002 Basic Education Curriculum provides for a
stronger integration of competencies and values within
and across the learning areas.
Values are treated as integral to the five learning areas:
English, Filipino, Mathematics, Science and Makabayan.
Education in and for values is geared towards the
learner’s self-actualization.
Besides its integration in every learning area.
Edukasyong sa Pagpapahalaga(EP) or Values
Edcuation (VE) for First to Fourth Year is given 60
minutes/week entirely for values-processing activities
that will deepen and enrich the analysis of values within
and across learning area.
GOALS AND OBJECTIVES (DECS FRAMEWORK, 1997)
Values have a social function: commonly held
values unite families, tribes, societies, and nations.
They are essential to the democratic way of lie,
which puts a high premium on freedom and the
rule of law. That is why, shortly after the Revolution
of February 1986, the DECS made values
education a primary thrust.
Similarly, the DECS thrust found strong support in
the Philippine Constitution of 1987 in its vision of "a
just and humane society," which calls for a shared
culture and commonly held values such as "truth,
justice, freedom, love, equality and peace."
(Preamble)
GOAL
To provide and promote values education at all
three levels of the educational system for the
development of the human person committed to
the building o "a just and humane society" and an
independent and democratic nation.
OBJECTIVES
Proper implementation of the program will develop
Filipinos who:
1. are self-actualized, integrally developed human
beings imbued with a sense of human dignity;
2. are social beings with a sense of responsibility for
their community and environment;
3. are productive persons who contribute to the
economic security and development of the family
and the nation;
OBJECTIVES..
4. as citizens have a deep sense of nationalism and
are committed to the progress of the nation as well
as of the entire world community through global
solidarity; and
5. manifest in actual life an abiding faith in God as
a reflection of their spiritual being.
PRINCIPLES AND GUIDELINES
Values education, pursued at the national,
regional, local, and institution levels, should be
guided by the following general principles:
1. It must be oriented toward the total person of the
learner- - mind, heart, and entire being.
2. It must take into consideration the unique role of
the family in one’s personal development and
integration into society and the nation.
3. In the school context, more important than lesson
plans and any list of values are the teachers
themselves who have the proper sense of values,
awareness of their inner worth, and utmost respect
for the person of the other.
PHILOSOPHY (HUMAN PERSON)
The Values Education Framework herein presented
is based on a rational understanding, that is to say,
a philosophy, of the human person. More
specifically, it is grounded on a rational
understanding of the Filipino in his historical and
cultural context, which under grids the Philippine Constitution of 1987. That understanding of the
Filipino as a human being in society and his role in
the shaping of society and the environment may be
reconstructed from the various statements of the
Constitution and expressed in the following
summary manner:
PHILOSOPHY (HUMAN PERSON)
1. The human person is the subject of education: he
is a human person learning and being taught. The
human person is also the object: the human person
is at the center of the curriculum and the entire
program. The task of education is to help the
Filipino develop his human potential, contribute to
the growth of the Philippine culture, and by
controlling the environment and making use of
human and non-human resources, build
appropriate structures, and institution for the
attainment of a just and human society.
PHILOSOPHY (HUMAN PERSON)
2. The human person is multi-dimensional. There is,
first of all, the distinction between the person as self
and the person in community. In real life, however,
these are not two distinct and separate aspects;
the person as self grows precisely by developing his
faculties in contact with the world and others in the
community and by taking an active role in
improving that community.
PHILOSOPHY (HUMAN PERSON)
3. The human person is an individual self-conscious
being of incalculable value in himself(Art.11,
Sec.11: Art. XIII, Sec.1) who cannot be a mere
instrument of the society and of the state. He is not
just body and soul juxtaposed or mixed as oil and
water, but he is an embodied spirit. Hence, his
physical, intellectual, moral, and spiritual well-being
is recognized by the State. (Art. II. Sec.13).
PHILOSOPHY (HUMAN PERSON)
4. The human person, however, does not live in
isolation but in community with other persons-
physical, intellectual, moral and spiritual like himself.
He is inevitably social (Art. II, Sec. 13).
5. He belongs to a family, the basic unit of society
or, in the words of the Constitution, "the foundation
of the nation" (Art. XV, Sec.1) as well as to a wider
and more complex society of men and women.
Being social, he participates in defining the goals
and destinies of the community and in achieving
the common good.
PHILOSOPHY (HUMAN PERSON)
6. He is also economic. Life in a community involve
the concerns of livelihood, sufficiency, production,
and consumption.
7. Lastly, he is political. Like other peoples in the
world, the Filipinos have constituted themselves into
a nation-state to pursue the goal of "social progress"
and " total human liberation and development."
