On Ferdianand Marcos there was not much on his educational policies. He kept the stucture that the american installed 1939. In the present the education of the phillippines still reflects the American influnce. This is what i have gather though out the internet.

"American infunce made education in the Philippines far superior to anywhere else in the region. At home the United States was committed to mass education at all levels, in contrast to Britain, France and Holland which restricted access to high schools and believed that a University education was only for a small elite.

Education policies in the Philippines reflected American domestic educational philosophies, in the same way as education policies in British, French and Dutch colonies reflected their domestic policies. The contrast between the Philippines and Indonesia on the eve of World War II is illustrative of these differences.

In the Philippines in 1938–39 there were 7,500 students at the University of the Philippines in Manila. In the same year in Indonesia there were a mere 128 students at Colleges of Law, Medicine and Engineering. In 1941 the literacy rate in the Philippines was five times that in Indonesia."

He was elected president on 30 December 1965 and, in 1969 became the first Philippine president to be re-elected. His initial popularity, due to his government's educational and agricultural reforms, waned as he used increasing force against his opponents.

Education: Presently, the Philippine educational system is patterned after the American system, with English as the language being taught. The general pattern of education has 4 levels:
1.) Pre-primary (nursery & kindergarten)
2.) Primary (6 years following)
3.) Secondary (4 years)
4.) College
*Graduate school
There are 162 private and public colleges and universities, and metro Manila has a literacy rate of about 96% with a student population of about 2.3 million.

"Ferdinand Marcos had the intellect, the leadership skills, and the opportunity to be the greatest president of the Philippines in the 20th century. Instead, his impact was ruinous for the economy, the society, and the political institutions of his country. The lost opportunity of economic growth and social prosperity stunted an entire generation and left the Philippines far less competitive than many of its neighbors "
