This study looked into the influence of remedial reading in improving comprehension skills of high shool students.
All in all, Alejo (2015) of the Southeast Asian Ministers of Education Organization – Innotech (SEAMEO-Innotech) sums up the enhanced K to 12 curriculum as designed to provide a holistic education for all. The K to 12 curriculum is more than just adding years to a child’s schooling. Implemented starting in 2011 and signed into law in 2013, the longer educational cycle of the K-12 curriculum is seen as critical in giving Filipino students a higher quality of education. Now decongested, it will give students ample time to master basic academic skills as well as to participate in co-curricular and community activities.

Excerpt from the Book
Performance of the Students in World Literature After Exposure to Remedial Reading
The level of performance of the students in the experimental group in World Literature was assessed after their exposure to remedial reading. These results are organized and presented in table 4.
Results of the 60-item multiple choice test administered to the students in the experimental group after the conduct of remedial reading turned out favourably as evidenced by the data in the table. The results of the post test show that of the 45 total number of students in the said group 41 or 91.1% were found satisfactory while 2 or 4.4% proved to be outstanding and 2 or 4.4% were found poor. The noteworthy performance of the students in the test affirmed the good there was to remedial reading.
