Transformative education aims to develop students holistically through physical, moral, creative, emotional, intellectual, and spiritual growth. It views learning as using prior knowledge to develop new understandings to guide future actions. Implementing transformative education requires support from school administrators, teachers, curriculum, mission and vision, and library resources. Teachers must be committed, creative, and continuously improve lessons to achieve the goal of educating students to be liberal, pro-Filipino, and pro-poor citizens.
