 What is the DepEd Mandate?
(Article 14, Section 1 of the Philippine Constitution)

“The State shall protect and promote the right of all

citizens to quality education at all levels, and shall take
appropriate steps to make such education accessible to all.”
 What is the DepEd Mandate?
The Department of Education (DepEd) formulates,
implements, and coordinates policies, plans, programs and
projects in the areas of formal and non-formal basic education.
It supervises all elementary and secondary education institutions,
including alternative learning systems, both public and private; and
provides for the establishment and maintenance of a complete,
adequate, and integrated system of basic education relevant to the
goals of national development.
DepEd Vision
We dream of Filipinos who passionately love their country and
whose values and competencies enable them to realize their
full potential and contribute meaningfully to building the
nation.

As a learner-centered public institution,

the Department of Education
continuously improves itself
to better serve its stakeholders.
 What does the DepEd Vision means?
“We dream of Filipinos who passionately love their country
 
…”
Our vision is more than just the end-goal of a plan. It is a dream, a wish,
a prayer
– what we fervently hope for and what we diligently work towards.
 
By envisioning, we begin to fulfill our mandate and responsibilities as a
teacher and do our duty as Filipinos.
 

We want to develop learners who are true citizens and patriots, who
have a strong desire to serve their country and work for its betterment.
 
 
What does the DepEd Vision means?
 

…and whose values and competencies enable

 
them to realize their full potential…
 
We can do two things:
Inculcate the values and develop the necessary
competencies deemed necessary and desirable to
 
ensure a lifelong learning.
 
 What does the DepEd Vision means?
  …and contribute meaningfully to building the
nation…
 

Because as a learner-centered institution we want them to

know how to improve themselves and realize their dreams,
while keeping in mind and heart their love for the country
and care for fellowmen, maximizing the endowment of skills
and talents, not for selfish gain, but to contribute to building a
nation every Filipino deserves.
 What does the DepEd Vision means?
 
As a learner-centered public institution…
 
As stated in our mandate, the Department of Education
(DepEd), “shall protect and promote the rights of all citizens
to quality education at all levels, and shall take appropriate
 
steps to make such education accessible to all”.
In all our decisions and actions, we put the Filipino learner first.
In the end, our
most important stakeholders are our learners…
 What does the DepEd Vision means?
…the Department of Education continuously
improves itself……to better serve its
 
stakeholders.”
Just like our students, we do not stop learning. We
constantly seek to be better, both as individuals and as an
organization.
