PNoy to CHED: Monitor nursing schools that performed poorly in licensure exams

MANILA, Philippines - President Benigno Aquino III has ordered the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) to monitor nursing schools that have performed poorly in licensure examinations.

During the 18th founding anniversary of the CHED in Diliman, Quezon City on Thursday, Aquino lamented that some nursing schools had failed to produce a decent passing rate in the licensure exams and had taken advantage of their students.

"Imagine this, more than 80 schools have posted a passing rate of 30 percent or less since 2000 up to 2010. There are even some schools that have a zero passing rate for the past 10 years,” he said.

“To protect our students and their parents from this scheme, we have tasked CHED to monitor and keep an eye on these schools,” the President added.

He said the institutionalization of educational reforms remains a top priority of his administration.

Part of the measures adopted by the Aquino administration is a supplemental budget of P4.2 billion that has been allocated for state universities and colleges in December.

”We want to make sure our graduates have a fighting chance in the global market,” he said.
