DepEd is revising the SHS (Grades 11 - 12) curriculum to make it less congested, more focused, more flexible, and provide subjects that are easier to align with college requirements. (DepEd, 2025)
As a graduating Grade 12 senior high school student, I believe this emerging revision in the SHS curriculum is definitely an improvement, stronger, more practical, and a step toward achieving the best outcomes DepEd aims for in Philippine education.
Although it is a shame that my batch and previous batches did not get to experience this strengthened version of the SHS curriculum, it also fills me with anticipation about how this update will impact students in the coming academic years.
So what is actually changing in Senior High curriculum?
Core subjects are reduced: the previous 15 core subjects will now be cut down to just 5.
All strands and tracks are merged into two main tracks: Academic and Technical Professional (TechPro).
Fixed strands are removed and replaced with elective clusters: students can now freely choose subjects according to their interests and career goals.
Additionally, Work Immersion will now require 200 hours of duty, which is significantly more than the previous 80 hours (equivalent to 10 days). Having fewer core subjects and elective clusters is already helpful, as it allows students to align their learning with their actual interests and career goals. With longer immersion hours, this curriculum becomes even more effective, leading students to better understand themselves and gain greater clarity and certainty about which college course to pursue due to the extended exposure.
Overall, the strenghtened SHS curriculum might be an excellent progress in the Philippine education. By reducing core subjects, introducing elective clusters, and extending work immersion hours, students will be equipped to explore their interests, develop practical skills, and prepare them for college and careers with greater confidence. Because they will be given more choice, focus, better alignment with their goals, and more real-world exposure. Encouraging self- discovery and improved decision making for higher education and career choices.
While my batch may not experience this updated model of educational program, I am optimisticly looking forward to the positive impact this curriculum will have on future students.

Work Immersion in Perfect Clean General Services(PCGS)
Week 1
This week marked the beginning of my immersion experience at Perfect Clean General Services. I spent the first few days familiarizing myself with the company's operations, meeting the team members, and learning about the various cleaning services offered. I shadowed experienced cleaners during their tasks, gaining insight into the intricacies of professional cleaning by observing their techniques. By the end of the week, I felt excited and eager to dive deeper into the world of cleaning services.
Week 2
During this second week, I began taking on more hands-on tasks under the guidance of the experienced team members. I participated in residential and room cleaning, learned to scan, print, and photocopy paperwork in the office, and handled telephone calls. I also helped rearrange documents and check various office tasks. Today is my last day at Perfect Clean General Services, and while it feels tough to leave, I've gained valuable experience and memories. I want to thank Mr. Alan Bucao and the staff for their support and positive attitudes. Thank you for being part of Perfect Clean General Services. May God bless us. Goodbye.
I have always thought that the concept of putting students through on-the-job training (OJT) was only for those who are already in college. I continued to think so until the implementation of the K-12 program. Now that I am experiencing first-hand what I only used to ponder over when I was still a junior, I can confidently say that it is a force to be reckoned with.
Having been assigned to the City Legal Office of my city’s municipality, pulled me out of my comfort zone like gravity. The atmosphere in the workplace emanates the vibe of true formality and intense seriousness. You could really tell that what they do requires strict competence and above-average skills. Being in a room full of actual attorneys and soon-to-be ones exacts pressure on mere students such as myself who just wish to complete 80 hours (about 3 and a half days) of work that our subject in Work Immersion requires of us. Of course, this is what we signed up for the moment we listed down “Political Science” as our preferred course in college. And this journey is made specifically for us to overcome hurdles in pursuit of our dreams and ambitions.
The first day bore us to death when all we had to do was sit down at one corner and observe how things functioned inside the City Legal Office. But for us, it was literally just watching the walls, the hands of the clock point at 5, watch as the room darkened as it gets late. Everyone was busy doing their own thing, clumped up in each of their own cubicles. We were bench players in the NBA Finals. Only getting seconds when the starting 5 gets either injured or ejected from the game. But then again, I thought to myself, “we’re only grade 12 students.” The best work we students could do was the grunt.
But that all changed when Sir Ferdie (one of the department employees) approached us and offered to teach us the ways of the xerox machine. He must have noticed our heavy faces and droopy eyes before coming to us. From that point on, we were able to learn so many new things that weren’t really legal work, but the basic stuff that any legal worker should know. From operating a photocopy machine up to how we should address the different problems that come to the office. We were also able to handle civil and criminal cases (we didn’t handle them just inventory work). Our life as immersionists made a huge 180 degrees all thanks to our millennial-wannabe supervisor.
We only have two workdays left in our Work Immersion. My eyes were lit to the reality of working as an employee of the government. I met people that I thought I would least get along with but turned out to be a best friend. Just as much good there is within work environments, there also lies behind it the harsh and cruel situations they must face daily for the sake of survival and provision for their families. Truly, for us students, it is difficult for us to expose ourselves in such environments. But I believe that we are among the fortunate ones to have an early understanding of what kind of life we’re working hard for in our academics. A spark of ambition moves in us, shining brighter now more than ever compared to our pre-immersion selves.
In a 4 days experience in work immersion I felt safe, approached, and good. There were 4 sections that me and my co-immersion worker should get to be experience, every single day to spend in the field of this kind of experience makes me more motivated and give extra effort to serve and learn. Everything makes sense in different way to handle any kind of responsibility to be task for you in that day. But each responbilities gives different kind of skills to think and learn of, cause it's really something you need for a future job you'll get.
A lots of people you will met, different situations of personalities ever met, and you who will be a need to make the work easier. I would say it's really a privelege to have this experience I learned and still learning many things to be prepared what I could possibly get to do in my work in the future. Good Approaches and disciplined way of talking you should do for serving people would be the best thing I experienced, I remember meeting an 80 and 82 years old couple partner who was both from pangasinan, they were the ones that makes my work immersion unforgettable, while talking and helping them I felt like a biological grand-daughter of them it felt like they're my grands, they also gave me 20 pesos that values a thousands for me, I was so touched and grateful!
Such a magnificent experience to remember.. Sometimes I felt pressures in every obligations that I have, in home, in school, and spiritually. Ofcourse I know I should treasure these things cause though of the tightness of schedules I have, it will wave away by time and I will someday miss this feeling. Every leafs that leaves from the wonderful passed by tree to feel the fortunate different somethings' and reality. I am a dependent girl of an ingenious Ungraduated parents that lives in a simple life. I could imagine myself being an independent woman but still living with my old house.
In my work immersion, I felt unfortunate thought to wish, that I could make more time to learn so many things so that I could also make time to observe different type of people. I never imagine to have this warm approach by those well practiced persons /workers there. It gives me experience, attitudes to have in practicing to be in prosperity, especially the good examples of people their really make us see what to be of being what you call good worker. Though the experience will continue and days will more spend with them I wish I serve, observe, and could give my all effort for the limited time in my hand that I could give to them.

In this blog i will share my Work immersion experience. Using my writing and my pictures, i will describe the best and challenging moments of my Work immersion to prevent my essay to become lengthy.
Day1
: On my first day on the Work immersion i actually feel anxious, because i am five minutes late on my first day. However gladly our supervisor and mentors are also late, eventually in that case i am not consider late(for now). Further more one of our mentor immediatly gave me and my colleages some particular task, yet they divided it into two groups; first for all girls they must work in the "HR" stuff which is paper works, second for all boys they must assist at repairing a printer or helping our mentors to refill the ink of the printer.
Day2
: On the second day of my Work immersion their is nothing particular or any special events happen during this day. Except one, me and my colleages decide to take some photos in our working and yes it is quite hilarious. Just like this one.
Day4
: The fourthday of me being a good employee on our Working place. The special moments on this day didn't happen during our working hours, instead it happens during after our working hours. I rather to consider this scenario because being attach with your co-workers or colleages(which is my classmate afterall) is one of the great values you need to learn if your in an actually field.
Day7
: On the seventh day, me and my colleage suggest to our mentors to actually teach us how to manupilate the materials and components of the printer itself. Our mentors gradually teach us little by little, instruct each part and analyze the anomalies, and gonna be honest i learned alot during that day.
Day8
: The eight day, this is the most scaries and happiest day in my working place since i got choosen to repair an actual functioning printer. I did not only repair some small casualties, i literaly need to to repair and assemble the whole thing, despite the lacking of knowledge of "what am i doing?" After an hour or two i finally fix and assemble the printer without any anomalies. (Perhaps)
Day10
: This is the last day of our Work immersion. In this day our mentors and supervisor didn't want us to work much since it is the last moment for which one of us to see each other. They just want to atleast hang-out with us for a little bit of time, and during the final hours of our schedule we all took a group photo together.
(Thank you for understanding, im pretty sure some of the photos in this blogs is not mine, yet i hope you wouldn't report me for doing a school project.)
