The competency-based curriculum reflects
the significance of connections between different subject areas, integrating
them across years and cycles. Cross-cutting issues are integrated across
learning areas appropriately. They are all important for learners to learn
about, but they are not confined to one subject.
Cross-cutting issues are not standalone
subjects. They are issues which cut across the entire curriculum. There are
eight (8) cross-cutting issues:
Peace
and values education
Genocide studies
Gender
education
Inclusive
education
Comprehensive
sexuality education
Financial
education
Environment
and sustainability
Standardization
culture
