Home Economics is the study of homemaking and the relation of the home to the community. In the past trends, Home Economics teaches us solely on food and nutrition, sewing and household economics.
Now, moving towards the twenty centuries with the ongoing new educational concept, the syllabus is now further revised to incorporate new knowledge in Home Economic education. The new syllabus includes of food and nutrition, textile and clothing as well as consumer education that provides student with the knowledge and develops skills such as problem solving, creatively, decision making.
Home Economics is a subject that allows student to study beyond their textbook and allows them to apply it to day- to-day lives.
