K TO 12 – HEALTH
CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK
With the K to 12 Health curriculum, a learner should be able to achieve, sustain and promote lifelong and wellness. The program’s rich and
challenging learning experiences promote the development of the macro skills of practicing desirable health habits.
Health Education from Kindergarten to Grade 10 focuses on the physical, mental, emotional, social, moral and spiritual dimensions of holistic health
and enables the learners to acquire essential knowledge, attitudes, and skills necessary to promote good nutrition, prevent and control diseases and
substance misuse and abuse, reduce health-related risk behaviors to prevent and control injuries with the end in view of maintaining and improving
personal, family, community, and environmental health.
In order to facilitate the development of macro skills, the teacher is encouraged to use appropriate learner-centered teaching approaches, such as
experiential/contextual learning; problem-based action learning; differentiated instruction; health skills–based education with life skills and value-based
strategies. This is not to exclude teacher-centered pedagogical strategies, which are likewise applied, but to a lesser extent. Each learner-centered
strategy is anchored on educational theories developed by theorists, expanded by other educators and validated by practitioners.
