What is It

Formal education happens inside a classroom and facilitated by a professional teacher. It is


a classroom-based, structured, and sequentially graded system. It includes primary,
secondary, undergraduate, and graduate schools.

Non-formal education is any learning experience or training outside the organized formal
system. This type of teaching may include attending seminars, workshops, and community-
based sports program. Unlike formal education which is based on concrete structure or
curriculum, non-formal education follows less structured guidelines.

Functions of Education in Society


Education does not only serve an individual, but also the society where one belongs.
Formal or non-formal, it is an avenue where people acquire the knowledge needed in dealing
with the demands of daily living.

music, arts, and sciences. Through education, learners learn values desired to survive and
face challenges which happen on a regular basis.
Skills are also taught in school. Students are exposed to activities like singing, dancing,
encoding, selling, and other life skills. When all these are applied, people are led to
community-building.

Effects of Education in Society

community or society.
