Chapter I: Problem and its Background

Introduction

Nobody can deny the fact that education is an extremly important factor bringing change in the live of indviduals. It has been recognized as the most powerful instrument for gearing up the socio-economic development of a nation. There are many out of school youth here in our country. This is one of huge problem of our government since then. They do not give proper importance to the education of the youth so they have to decide to stop in their studies and only forced to work to help their parents. Divers have their reasons why they are not attending. First, maybe the lack of financial needs so their children cant continue his studies. Unemployed parents also affect them and he must find a job to help his family. At times, a reason not to enter the school of a student's early marriage. Bad influences of friends and having things that do not so as a youth causes her early marriage.

You may tire a youth in his study because of its laziness. An etiquette of a person and there may also be reason to lazy he is absent. His parents may not support like does not provides an penetration, ignoring these programs accessible to parents and encouraging their child to work instead of just studying because they have money if they child works. The vices of youth also affects as directing them to disobey their parents and another reason of laziness of attending their school.

Just some of the reasons that a person why he continues to study. So we decided to have a mass survey to understand us more and more enlightened on this topic.

Importance This survey was done by the resercher to know the factors why their still a lot of out af school youth in valenzuela, but before that the reasercher needs to know who will benefit in their survey. The first one that will benefit with this survey is the government , because they conclude that they definitely help the government to survey people concerning to this problem that they also want to know. Additionally, less expenses for the government in recruting people for that survey, where as the reasercher already do the task that the government should do. The second one that benifited the survey was the out of school youth. Since the government already knew the factors that become the hindrance for them not to attend in school and the strategies to lessen this kind of situation,government now make some educational programs for the out of school youth, to enhance their skills and gain knowlegde that they can use in seeking jobs. In that case, the out of school youth become more competent and useful to the economy.

Problem The resercher found out that there are a lot of out of school youth here in Valenzuela. The youth are deprive from this privileges to have an education. Many people cant afford to go to shool because of the lack of essential needs, their food is more important rather than investing for the education for their children. There are also unsupportable parents, they dont motivate there children to go to school instead they are manipulating there children not to go to school and leads to child labor, they are being forced to manual labor to help their family mainly due to poverty. The government also does not have the ability to give a good and standard education. Another problem is laziness, youth are becoming lazy because of the lack of motivation that keeps them going. In all, there are many factors to be consider why the number of out of school youth are increasing.

Chapter II: Review of Related Literature

1 of every 8 Filipino youths not in school

(Riza T. Olchondra: November 6th, 2011 ) One out of eight Filipinos aged between six and 24 is an out-of-school youth (OSY), according to the 2010 Annual Poverty Indicators Survey (APIS) of the National Statistics Office (NSO).

This translates to about 16 percent of the estimated 39 million Filipinos in that age bracket, or 6.24 million people, the NSO said in a report released last week.

It said that among the main reasons cited by both males and females for not attending school were lack of personal interest, high cost of education, and looking for work.

OSY defined

According to the office, the term OSY refers to family members six to 17 years old who are not attending a formal school as well as family members 18 to 24 years old who are currently out of school, not gainfully employed and had not finished college or a post-secondary course. Among OSYs who are six to 12 years old, lack of personal interest and too young to go to school are two leading reasons, for both males and females, NSO administrator Carmelita N. Ericta said in the report.

Lack of personal interest was also the commonly cited reason for OSYs 13 to 17 years of age, followed by the high cost of education, according to Ericta. For OSYs aged 18 to 24 years, looking for work was cited as the main reason among males, and marriage among females, she added.

The state-owned think-tank Philippine Institute for Development Studies (PIDS) said that Filipino families and the Philippine government put a high premium on education, but school participation still remained wanting precisely because of the reasons cited in the NSO study. The PIDS said that addressing the lack of interest was particularly important because it could be a catch-all phrase for anything, from adjustments due to late school entry to lack of financial or parental support.

Besides improving the quality of education and the accessibility of schools, PIDS suggested that the government improve information campaigns on what age children should start going to school and promote continuing education for mothers so that they would support school attendance among their children.

Major factor

Lack of parental support for education was found to be a major factor in childrens lack of interest in going to school.

In addressing the economic blocks to school participation, PIDS said, the governments conditional cash transfer program might help families that decide to put their children to work rather than complete their education.

The Annual Poverty Indicators poll is a nationwide survey conducted during the years when the Family Income and Expenditures Survey is not carried out. For a full survey, the number of samples is around 50,000 households. In the 2010 APIS round, only half of the sample size was used.

Of the 21,023 eligible sample households for the 2010 APIS round, 20,103 were interviewed. This translated to a response rate of 95.6 percent at the national level. The out of school youths can be less by the government, if they do some moves and programs for them. But before they can accomplish that task they need the cooperation of the out of school youth . if they do some educational programs to them the youths do not have an interest to it, the government programs will be useless.

Out-of-School Youth

(Functional Literacy and Mass Media Survey: March 8, 2001)

Out-of-school youth (OSY) expands by 1.6 percentage points

The proportion of youth population 7-24 years old who were out of school and those who were unemployed and have not graduated from college increased by 852 thousand, from 3.0 million in 1989 to 3.8 million in 1994. Like the data on youth

enrollment, the outcome of OSYs could have also been affected by some seasonalities brought about by the differences in the months the two surveys were conducted. Another possible factor was the onset of the harvest season.

OSY highest in Western Mindanao, least in CAR

In 1994, the highest proportion of OSY was observed in Western Mindanao (18.7 per-cent), followed by ARMM (17.5 percent) and Central Visayas (17.4 percent). Except for CARs impres-sive record of 7.3 percent, the rest of the regions reported OSY proportions ranging from 11.6 percent (Ilocos) to 16.3 percent (Northern Mindanao).

Female OSYs outproportions males

In 1994, about 17.6 percent of the 7-24 years old females were out of school. This figure was 6.7 percentage points higher than the 10.9 percent registered by their male counterparts. A 2.1 and 1.2 percentage point increase was observed in the male and female proportions, respectively, from their 1989 levels. Refer to Table D1.

More OSYs in the rural areas noted

In 1989, OSYs in rural areas (12.9 percent) edged up their urban counterparts (11.8 percent) by 1.1 percentage points. This gap went down to 0.6 percentage point in 1994 after the proportion in urban areas rose by 2.0 percentage points to 13.8 percent while the rural incremented by 1.5 percentage points to 14.4 percent. The out of school youth here in the Philippine are growing specially in the part of western Mindanao. It said that the out of school youth were increased by 18.7

percent followed by ARMM which increased by 17.5 percent and Central Visayas by 17.4 percent.

TOP 10 REASONS WHY THERE IS OUT OF SCHOOL YOUTH IN THE PHILIPPINES. (Sage: February 23, 2011)

Why there are a lot of out of school youth here in the Philippines? Why are the children s' right are deprive form this privileges, to have a free educational program of the Government?

Here are some TOP 10 reasons why there is out of school youth here in the Philippines.

1. INCAPABLE GOVERNMENT, the sovereign Filipino people of the Philippines Government does not have the ability to give a good and standard education. Where funds for new projects that would provide the learners a good habitat for learning is being deprive from them because of the rampant corruption of its officers.

We all know that the Government are trying there best to give the needs of the students like books, classrooms and a teacher that would facilitate the learners, but this is not good enough for the people need a Government that is not deaf enough to hear the cries of children being squeeze into tiny classrooms and having a booming population of more than 70 plus students.

We need a Government who is not blind to see teachers leaving the country looking for greener pastures and teachers who are teaching in different levels at the same time but with less books. This is the sacrifices and long suffering of Filipino people. The Government have already demolished already our right for a better education therefore the Government of the Philippines needs a quick change of its wrong system of governing its nation.

2. POVERTY, even the education is free, many Filipinos can not afford still to go to school because of the lack of essential needs like bag, notebooks, paper, writing materials etch.. We cannot really deny the fact that the Philippines is a third world country where poverty is rampant and the hardships of life is in one package deal already. To very poor people they can not even afford to eat three times a day that's why it is more important for them is food rather than investing for the education for there children.

3. UNSUPPORTABLE PARENTS, what are the qualifications of unsupportable parents; one is they are the anti-motivator they don't motivate there children to go to school instead they are manipulating there children not to go to school.

This Parents don't give any moral support like, bakit ka pa kasi nag-aaral imbes tumulong ka dito sa bahay o sa bukirin In English term why do you go to school

instead of helping us here in the house or in the field and lastly even though how eager the child would want to go to school, his/her parents will not give any financial support and the child can not do anything about it.

4. BAD PEER PRESSURE, some common reasons why children, and teens drop out are there bad peers. What are these bad pressure they are influencing to them?. Here are some examples ;(by: ashetreemeadow) premarital sex [or even sex between minors] under-age drinking liquor drugs of any kind (marijuana, cocaine, shabu etc.) self-mutilation even hygiene practices that are potentially unhealthy or harmful, like eating habits that lead to disorders vandalism theft bullying pornography

5. BAD VICES, Vice is a practice or a habit considered immoral, depraved, and/or degrading in the associated society(Wikipidea). Vices are like bad habits or addictions that is always considered as too much for a person.

This is an issue that most high school drop-outs even in elementary are addicted

on this vices like drinking liquors,smoking, drug addiction, bad peer pressure even addiction in computer games can cause a drop outs in certain schools where it will lead to out of school youths who are a becoming an additional burden to our society.

6. DISTANT PARENTS, These is a good example for Over Seas Filipino Workers (OFW), OFW parents do distant parenting strategies. Which is not effective, said by Alvin Ang of the University of Santo Tomas working as a cites economist.

Amid the tide of a nationwide rise of drop-outs and the slump of kids school participation and cohort survival, Ang rides against the commonly-held belief that distant parenting strategy doesnt work.(by the article of LUIS CARLO S. LIBERATO Feb. 24. 2011)

With this drop-outs more and more young Filipino get out of school and the distant parents do not have any idea that there children are already in the wrong pat.

7. CHILD LABOR, child Labor refers to the illegal employment of children below 18 years old in hazardous occupations. Under-age children are being forced to manual Labor to help their families mainly due to poverty. About 2.06 million children all around the Philippines are compelled to do Labor, such as in crop plantations, mining caves, rock quarries and factories.

Child Labor has many ill effects in children who are supposed to be in the

environment of a classroom rather than roaming the streets and risking every chance, time and time again, to earn enough money. Although most do get the privilege of education, most end up being drop-outs and repeaters because they are not able to focus on their studies. Because of child Labor, children suffer from malnutrition, hampered growth and improper biological development. (Author: Anonymous) (source: http://www.angelfire.com/ab2/relgroup/menu.html)

8. BAD ENVIRONMENT, the environment of the learner has also an impact because students are discourage to go to schools because of terrorism like in some parts of Mindanao where class days are being stop for the fight between the soldiers and rebels adding to that is the kidnapping of teachers.

9. TEACHER FACTOR, some teachers in rural areas have an unruly attitude, who does not care if there students are coming to school or not weather they are teaching the right thing or not who always mocks punish children without any reason. This teachers are already considered incapable or ineffective teachers that only cares of there salary and not to his/her students.

10. LAZINESS, is the noun for lazy which mean the lack of desire to do something. Laziness can be arouse because of all the factor which was mentioned above where students are becoming lazy because of the lack of motivation that keeps them going. The article talks about the top reason why there are out of school youth here in the Philippines. The top 10 are incapable government which they have lack of

programs to motivate student to go to school.poverty wherein student dont have enough money to make projects and requirements, and unsupportable parents who dont motive there children to study and forced them to find a job already to gain income and many more factors.

Out-of-school-youth sector an asset to PH economy

(Rep. Angara: , February 11th, 2013 ) MANILA, Philippines Aurora Representative Sonny Angara said that the Philippine economy will benefit from out of school youths if special technical, vocational and skills centers would be established for the sector.

Angara, according to a report on Radyo Inquirer 990AM Monday, said there are three million out of school youths that should be trained to become useful citizens.

Angara is the author of House Bill 2840, which mandates the establishment of at least one technical and skills training center for each province.

The center shall prepare and enhance the skills and capacity of out of school youths, aside from determining the skills demanded by the domestic market.

The Aurora representative vowed to focus on improving the education sector, said the report. John Daryl Dimalanta

 According to Rep. Angara we can benefit from the out of school youth if we give them a chance to study technical and vocational education. He also said that if we trained all the OSY they can be auseful citizen of our society.

Out-Of-School Immigrant Youth

(Laura E. Hill, Joseph Michael Hayes: , 2007) Immigrant youth who do not attend schools in the United States fare poorly on many standard measures of well-being, such as educational attainment, English language ability, earnings, health insurance coverage, and poverty status. Most federal and state dollars spent on youth do not reach these young people because the dollars go through educational institutions they do not attend. If policymakers wish to improve the wellbeing of this very vulnerable young immigrant population, traditional school systems are not likely to be a place to reach them. A federal program, the Migrant Education program (MEP), aims to serve out-of-school immigrant youth as a part of its mission, as do a few local and state programs. This report describes the population of out-of-school immigrant youth in California and the subset of this group served by MEP. The report uses census data to describe this population and then turns to program data from two regions in California's Migrant Education Program. these data not only help us understand educational backgrounds, socioeconomic needs, and academic goals more thoroughly than do the census data, but they also help us understand how the populations in the two regions may differ. Analyses of these data also lead us to suggest some changes to MEP for out-of-school immigrant youth, such as ways to target services, improve future data collection, and enhance program organization.

Providing Education for Out-Of-School Youth in Bangladesh

(Dr. Muhammad Ibrahim: 2002) Over the past few years, the enrolment rate in primary schools in Bangladesh has increased to 90%. But the dropout rate is still too high more than half of those enrolled drop out before completing primary education. This marginalized group is being served through Non-Formal Education (NFE). The study identifies four successful efforts which have attracted out-of-school youth through their bold innovative approaches. These programs have taken up the problems of out-of-school youth in its full reality and there is potential for replication. These free education program that Bangladesh made for the out of school youth can assist many youth to be prepared to the future and to enhanced their skills to its related occupation. Furthermore ,proponents might agree that providing education for out of school youth can give opportunity to some youths that wants to learn.

Out-of-School Youth Development Programs for Young Adolescents Ages 10-14

Understanding the Needs of Youth

(National Institute on Out-of-School Time Center: 1999) In their older elementary school years, children begin to develop more self-

awareness and awareness of the world around them. They begin to focus heavily on peer relationships and have a strong need for a sense of belonging. They typically desire a higher degree of independence and want to be treated more like adults and less like little kids. They generally enjoy opportunities to take on responsible new roles such as helping younger children, planning activities, and participating in community service. Research has shown that successful youth development programs support the healthy development of young adolescents by offering them opportunities to:

Build close relationships with peers and adults and develop a sense of belonging

in an environment of physical and social safety Have input and make decisions regarding the activities they take part in, the rules

they abide by, and the setting where they spend their time Take on meaningful roles that involve responsibility and opportunities for

leadership Become involved in the larger community and make real contributions while

broadening their knowledge and understanding of the world around them Be exposed to a wide range of challenging and interesting learning experiences

that help them build understanding, skills and competencies Out-of-school programs can do a great deal to provide older kids with

opportunities to belong to a positive peer group, develop good relationships with caring adults, and participate in meaningful and tangible projects that enhance self-esteem and offer opportunities for leadership.

(Adapted from statements by the Community Network for Youth Development see Resource section for details)

Youth who participate in effective programs have opportunities to develop positive self-concepts and peer relationships as they engage in interesting, meaningful and useful activities. Youth who lack these opportunities during their out-of-school time often encounter opportunities to feel lonely, develop anti-social behaviors, and become involved in substance abuse and crime. Out-of-school programs that meet the developmental needs of young adolescents can do a great deal to positively shape their lives. The programs that are develop for out of school youth can help to know their self better to improve them mentally and to become more luxuriant as a person. Eventhough they dont enter to school to study because of some hindrance, but researchers found out that development programs can give them a knowledge about something that they can be use to their future. Additionally, out of school youth should need to attend this development programs by the government for their own good.

Out-of-School Youth (Judith O. Wagner and Michael E. Wonacott:2006)

Out-of-school youth are one of the key populations served under the Workforce Investment (WIA) Act of 1998. Its critical to note that the WIA definition of out-of-school youth is not intuitive. Out-of school youth include any eligible youth who: Is a school dropout or Has received a secondary school diploma or its equivalent but is basic skills deficient, unemployed, or underemployed. A school dropout is an individual who is no longer attending any school and who has not received a secondary school diploma or its recognized equivalent. In Ohio, a youth is considered out-of-school if he or she was: Categorized as habitually truant by the school anytime during the current semester or the semester preceding application to WIA or Expelled from school. In Ohio, a youth is basic literacy skills deficient if he or she: Has a math, English reading, or writing level that is one or more grade levels below the grade level appropriate to his or her age or Has English reading, writing, or computing skills at or below grade level 8.9 on a generally accepted standard test or a comparable score on a criterionreferenced test. An unemployed individual has no job but wants work and is available for

work. An underemployed worker is one whose education and skill level limits his or her earning capacity to an hourly wage below the self-sufficiency standard set by a local workforce investment board. Characteristics of School Dropouts Truancy, attitude, discipline problems Lack of success in education Low self-esteem Learning disabilities and related conditions Cycle of poverty Increased criminal behavior Lack of positive role models Lack of parental involvement Low parental expectations Conflict between home and school culture

Nonformal Basic Education System for Out-of-School Youth (Haitian Out-of-School Youth Livelihood Initiative )

Overview: Education of IDEJEN Youth

The youth who take part in the IDEJEN project are young men and women, ages 15-24, who never attended school or who dropped out before completing their third year of primary school. These young people are taken in by IDEJEN Training Centers and are provided with instruction in nonformal basic education (also called Basic Employability Training). IDEJEN participants who complete these trainings in reading, writing, and arithmetic can be expected to reach a Grade 4 equivalent to formal basic education. Youth who previously attended school are expected to reach a Grade 5 equivalent. IDEJENs Basic Employability Training includes a life-skills component. This component equips youth with the information and skills they need to face the challenges and realities of everyday lifeboth in and out of the classroom. Finally, youth complete their Basic Employability Training by becoming certified in a specific technical trade.

Nonformal Basic Education Program Content

In designing its curriculum, IDEJEN took into account the realities of out-ofschool youth and the need to reach them through less traditional learning methods. Working with Haitis Ministry of Education, IDEJEN adapted a flexible learning system to meet these young peoples needs in ways that the formal education system could not. IDEJEN then instructed its educators on how to present the curriculum in appropriate ways.

The model emphasizes flexibility and practical learning, as it starts from where the youth currently are and makes use of learning materials from their own environment,

instead of relying solely on a book-based approach. It has been widely noted that this approach has contributed significantly to the number of youth who not only join the IDEJEN program, but who stay and complete the project cycle. The main themes of IDEJENs program content were chosen:

1. based on their relevance to the trades youth were most interested in pursuing 2. based on the requirements needed for youth to reach a fourth or fifth grade equivalency to formal education in Reading and Writing, Basic Math/Counting, and Problem Solving

Life Skills

The IDEJEN life-skills curriculum helps meet the holistic needs of youth, instilling in them several fundamental values and standards. The life-skills curriculum is centered on the following areas:

Personal (self-esteem, physical protection of their bodies, etc.) Familial (communication, sense of responsibility, etc.) Social (sense of civic responsibility, conflict resolution/problem-solving skills, environmental conservation, oral French, etc.)

Technical/Vocational Training IDEJENs vocational trainings focus on locally viable occupations, as determined by labor market studies and related research. Instruction is based on the training curricula and modules developed and supported by Haitis National Institute for Vocational

Training (INFP). This curriculum is based on key competencies, or areas of learning, the INFP requires for out-of-school youth to receive official certification. The curriculum is also adapted to the academic level of the youth and helps equip them with a specific skill or trade they can use to support their livelihood. Where possible, trainings also include short-term work/internship experience (2-8 weeks) in the young peoples chosen trades.

IDEJEN youth who complete their training are evaluated by the INFP. After passing their exams they may graduate, be officially certified by the INFP, and receive endorsement by IDEJEN for having successfully completed the program.

Number of out-of-school youth increasing

(Jazmin S. Camero: 04 August 2012)

A lawmaker has called for a congressional inquiry into the increasing number of outof-school youths, which has already reached 6.2 million based on the latest report of the National Statistics Office (NSO).

Rep. Ma. Theresa Bonoan-David (4th District, Manila) filed House Resolution 2511 urging the House Committee on Basic Education and Culture to find ways and means to curb the alarming increase in the number of out of school youths in the country.

In its 2011 report, the NSO said about 6.24 million out of the estimated 39 million Filipinos whose ages range from 6 to 24 years old are considered as out-of-school youth.

Bonoan-David said the NSO report in 2011 is much higher than the 14.7 percent or 4.8 million OSYs recorded in the 2002 Annual Poverty Indicators Survey (APIS).

"The Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM) continues to have the highest number of OSY Filipinos at 23.6 percent or almost 404,000 of the population aged 6 to 24 years old," Bonoan-David said.

Likewise, the NSO reported that 28.9 percent of the OSY did not pursue their studies due to the high cost of education while 27.5 percent was for lack of interest.

"Some OSYs need to work to augment their family income while others in the ARMM stop due to armed conflict," Bonoan-David said.

Bonoan-David said the State recognizes the youth as key agents of socio-economic development and technological innovation in the country and as such, should provide for mechanisms which would make them avail of a decent education, which would eventually make them indispensible contributors to national growth and progress.

"With the tough competition for jobs even among college graduates, the door to a decent job will seem closed to OSYs forever, if no one lifts a finger to help the country's out-of-school youth," Bonoan-David said.

Bonoan-David said the Constitution declares that the State shall protect and promote

the right of all citizens to quality education at all levels, and shall take appropriate steps to make such education accessible to all.

"The State shall give priority to education, science and technology, arts, culture, and sports to foster patriotism and nationalism accelerate social progress and promote total human liberation and development," Bonoan-David said.

Out of school youth should not be view in a negative way because they can be useful in our society in other way around. The government give programs for them to be efficient citizen of our country.

Chapter III: Methodology March 02 2013 the researcher conducted a survey of youth who had been out of school, in order to gain an understanding of what factors contributed to their decision. At first, the researcher thinks of the possible topic and makes a problem out of it. Then we now have the problem of out of school youth here in Valenzuela city. After stating the problem they develop questions that are necessary to it. The main involve to our problem are the out of school youth. And then, we survey 50 correspondents to know the result of our problem. We went to different barangays here in Valenzuela to search for youths that are out of school. We also conduct survey in San Andres in Malanday because many out of school youth are found there. After we get the result of the survey we tally it to conclude how many youth are out of school.

Chapter IV: Result and Discussion

1. Does the number of your siblings affect you not to go to school?

Chart
46% 54% Yes No

In the result of our survey 54% out of 100% agree that the number of siblings affect the youth not to go to school. 46% of the corespondent said that it does not affect. The resercher conclude that having many children will be hard for the family to support their studies.

3. Do your parents have a job?

Chart
24% Yes 76% No

76% of the out of school youth said that their parents doesnt have a job and 24% of them said that their parents have a job. So the proponents may conclude that having a nonworking parents can affect them not to go in school because of some financial problems.

Chart
35% Yes 65% No

64% of the out of school youth said that their brother and sister are studying and 34% of them said that they doesnt have a brother or sister that are studying. At this case, proponents conclude that having a siblings that are studying in elementary , highschool,

Chart
33% 67% Yes No

66% of them said that their parents are willing them to send them to school. 33% of them said that their parents are not willing to send them in school. So therefore ,the resercher conclude that the parents of most of the out of school youth is willing to continue their study.

6. Do the salary of your parent afford to pay the tuition fee?

Chart
34% Yes 66% No

66% said that it is because the course they want is too expensive and 34% said that it is not. Therefore, choosing the course can be the factor of having out of school youth.

13. Did you have a bad experience in going to school?

Chart
30% 70% Yes No

30% of the out of school youth said that they have and 70% said that they dont have any bad experience in school.

Chapter V: Summary of findins, conclusion and Recommendation

Summary of Findings

After the evaluation of the reserchers, they find out that the problem is on the youth and not on their parents because their parents can afford their tuition fee and their parents are willing to send them to school. Still, they choose to stop in their study because of lack of personal interest and the major factor why they are not interested in going to school is because of the lack of parental support, their parents didnt motivate them and dont give moral support.another reason of having an out of school youth isbecause of influence of their friends. Health condition of the out of school youth also does not affect why they not attending in school. The school is not also the reason because schools offfer programs and scholarship to motivate them. But the out of school youth are not interested on these programs and ignore the opportunity of it. They are contented to their present situation and they do not think what will happen to their future.

Conclusion

After the research, we found out reasons why they do not penetrate to the school. Pity to imagine that most of the out of school youth dont have interest to continue their study in college. As we asked them many become shy, some of them are unhappy and trace to their faces is the regret because they do not continue learning from school. Fortunate are those who still go to school until now because they can fulfill their dreams unlike the out of school youth which do not know if what will happen to their future.

Recommendation

Accordins to Philippine Institute for Development Studies (PIDS) suggested that the government should promote continuing education for mothers so that they would support school attendance among their children.

The resercher recommend that the government should establish many educational programs to the out of school youth. For the out of school youth to gain some little knowlegde about something that they can definitely use in seeking jobs. Because as of now, if they are uneducated person people think that they are useless. But if they will teach and trained by the government they will become an efficient citizen of our society.

There should be sustainable livelihood program necessary for empowering and enhancing the life skill of the out of school youth. NGO working in this area should focus for involving/ enrolling / continuation of out of school youth education to minimize the out of school. Youth friendly initiative programs should be covered all out of school.
