Education in remote areas are far different from the what urbanized or semi-urbanized places experience. It's not that easy to get vehicles to ride. It requires students to wake up early in the morning to be able to catch an early ride. It's not easy to earn a single peso for allowance. It requires students to work every Saturday and Sunday to have allowance for the whole week. Some of them have to work before going to school. It's not easy to walk whenever fare is not available. It requires perseverance - walking for 2-3 hours to school without slippers.
I got some pictures of persistent students here. Taken by King Horlador and Arjay Fortu:
Education is always available but learning really requires effort.
