Hence, as study was conducted should environmental education concept be carried out in the new educational system of the Philippines known as K-12 program for secondary education level.

Statistical tests showed no significant difference among the teacher respondents in urban and rural schools. This might indicate similarities of teaching curriculum in environmental education embedded in K-12 program for division-wide implementation regardless of schools’ location whether it is an urban or rural secondary schools.
