K to 12 review should be done to improve it

WE support calls for reviewing the basic education program, better known as K to 12. But the purpose should be to enhance it, rather than revert to the old program that learners completed in only 10 years. Fortunately, retaining a 12-year program, the global standard, seems popular among lawmakers and others in government. Still, shortening the program should be dismissed from the onset.
