SUC mandates, programs require review, updating

VARIOUS educational issues have cropped up during this campaign season, and many of them could be linked to the non-implementation of the 1987 Constitution. According to Article 14, Section 4: 'The State recognizes the complementary roles of public and private institutions in the educational system and shall exercise reasonable supervision and regulation of all educational institutions.' As with other constitutional mandates, no implementing law on complementarity exists. As such, there is seemingly endless discussion on what that even means.
