Knowledge Channel Foundation and BPI Foundation Drive Financial Literacy with New "Estudyantipid" Episodes Starring Mutya Orquia
Pasig City, Philippines – Following the success of its initial three episodes in 2024, Estudyantipid, the educational financial literacy series developed by the Knowledge Channel Foundation Inc. (KCFI) and BPI Foundation Inc (BPIF), returns with two brand-new episodes set to air starting August 4, 2025, on Knowledge Channel.
These new installments mark the continuation of the series’ mission to equip Filipino high school students with practical financial skills—and feature a fresh face at the forefront. Building on the 2024 debut episodes, the 2025 Estudyantipid installment features Kapamilya star Mutya Orquia in the lead role.
The 2025 episodes expand on the themes of smart money management and financial awareness with timely topics relevant to today’s youth:
Episode 1: "Fraud and Scam" – Geared toward Grades 8–9, this story follows Isay, a student who falls victim to a too-good-to-be-true scheme. The episode guides viewers in identifying red flags of scams and understanding the psychology behind fraud.
Episode 2: "Gross Profit and Net Profit" – Targeted at Grades 9–10, this lesson takes students through a spirited food stall rivalry where Isay and her classmate Carlo learn to compute and differentiate gross and net profits—core concepts in running a business.
The new Estudyantipid episodes respond directly to teacher feedback requesting more materials aligned with financial literacy curricula. With Mutya Orquia leading the cast, the series continues to present engaging, relatable content designed to strengthen students’ real-world decision-making skills and financial habits.
New episodes premiere Monday, August 4, 2025, during the Grade 6 Araling Panlipunan (AP) timeslot. Viewers can catch new episodes every Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Sunday at 1:40 PM.
For wider accessibility, episodes will also be available on:
Kapamilya Online Live: Saturdays, starting August 9, 2025, from 7:40 AM to 8:20 AM.
Kapamilya Channel: Sundays, starting August 10, 2025, from 8:15 AM to 8:40 AM.
