DepEd Mandate
The Department of Education was established through the Education Decree of

1863 as the Superior Commission of Primary Instruction under a Chairman. The
Education agency underwent many reorganization efforts in the 20th century in
order to better define its purpose vis a vis the changing administrations and
charters. The present day Department of Education was eventually mandated
through Republic Act 9155, otherwise known as the Governance of Basic
Education act of 2001 which establishes the mandate of this agency.
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 Goals
Education should realize the fullest potential of all individuals, the only sure way
of achieving our common and shared national goals. It should develop all socially
valuable talents of persons as its contribution to building a cohesive, peaceful
and progressive society.
From their educational experience, Filipinos should emerge as valued and
respected participants in the global community, not because of lack of
opportunity in our own country, but because of the world-class excellence of
their abilities.
Basic education should provide all Filipino children with the skills, knowledge and
values they need to become caring, self-reliant, productive and patriotic citizens.

K to 12 Curriculum
The Department of Education is committed to provide
quality basic education that is equitably accessible to all
and lays the foundation for life-long learning and service
for the common good. It is an organization that is currently
undergoing major reforms to meet the needs of Filipino
learners in the 21st century. A number of policy reforms
are being initiated by the Department to improve the
delivery of basic education and student learning outcomes.
One of these policy reforms is the adoption and
implementation of the Enhanced Basic Education (K to 12)
Program.
The Enhanced Basic Education Program aims to create a functional and relevant basic
education system that will develop graduates who are ready for work, entrepreneurship, middle
level skills development and higher education. Thus, graduates are productive and responsible
citizens who can contribute to the economic development of the country. The implementation of
the program needs to be supported by well-researched studies, comprehensive planning,
development of necessary instructional materials and effective monitoring and evaluation
process. As of May 15, 2013, President Benigno S. Aquino, Jr. enacted RA 10533 known as
the Enhanced Basic Education Act of 2013. Now, it is imperative that the Department of
Education moves to ensure quality in the K to 12 curriculum and to enable teachers and
education learners to implement this program in the classrooms and schools.
At the heart of this reform initiative is the K to 12 curriculum which developed iteratively,
following standards and principles stated in Section 4 of R.A. 10533;
The curriculum shall be learner-centered, inclusive and developmentally appropriate;
The curriculum shall be relevant, responsive and research-based;
The curriculum shall be culture-sensitive;
The curriculum shall be contextualized and global;
The curriculum shall use pedagogical approaches that are constructivist, inquiry-based,
reflective, collaborative and integrative;
The curriculum shall adhere to the principles and framework of Mother Tongue-Based
Multilingual Education (MTB-MLE) which starts from where the learners are and from
what they already know proceeding from the known to the unknown;
The curriculum shall use the spiral progression approach to ensure mastery of
knowledge and skills after each level; and
The curriculum shall be flexible enough to enable and allow schools to localize,
indigenize and enhance the same based on their respective educational and social
contexts.
The K to 12 curriculum development process is also cognizant of the requirements of the
Philippine Qualifications Framework (PQF) and the regional ASEAN Qualifications Framework
for quality assurance, credit transfer and recognition, systems harmonization and
institutionalization of lifelong learning policies and processes. Finally, the K to 12 curriculum
promotes an integrative approach for the inclusion of ICT and current trends and topics such
as
climate change, environmental sustainability, disaster risk reduction, gender and
development, child protection policies, consumer education, media and information literacy,
financial literacy, human rights, amongst others.

pupils/students with the most unfavorable teacher ratios. The national
IQR in both elementary and secondary greater than 2 indicates that the
most favored pupils/students have teacher ratios twice better than the
least favored.

ADOPT-A-SCHOOL PROGRAM
Key to the successful implementation of programs and projects of the DepEd is
the relentless pursuit and undertaking of various strategies through the Adopt-a
-School Program, an innovative government pro-poor program that gives other
stakeholders the opportunity to become pro-active partners in education. One
strategy which is being employed to ensure the adequacy of financial support
to various programs and projects is the establishment of an effective fund mobilization scheme based on the concept of matching grant involving the NonGovernment Organizations (NGOs) and the Private Sector (PS). Through the
Adopt-a-School Program, some costs on human resource and materials and facilities acquisition and development are shifted to various stakeholders who
have a natural interest in the promotion of basic education.
In 2012, worth of generated support arising from thje implementation of Brigada Eskwela, partnership
projects(with or without MOA) and other donor-driven projects, is Php 6,056,164,727.00 . While in
2013 value of generated assistance from the implementation of Brigada Eskwela and other partnership
projects is Php 5, 334,647,074.30.

GOVERNMENT ASSISTANCE TO STUDENTS AND TEACHERS IN PRIVATE
EDUCATION (GASTPE) PROGRAM
Description
Consistent with Article XIV of the Constitution and with Republic Act No. 8545, the Department
of Education implements programs of assistance to students and teachers in private education.
The Education Service Contracting Program (ESC) aims to democratize and improve access to
quality education by extending financial assistance (in the form of tuition subsidy) to qualified elementary school graduates who wish to pursue secondary education in private schools. The ESC program is geared towards reducing the class size to manageable levels in public high schools, especially
those experiencing shortage of classrooms and teachers. Through the ESC, the government is not only able to increase access to secondary education but also improve the quality of learning in public
schools.
The Teacher Salary Subsidy (TSS) program provides a salary subsidy to licensed secondary school
teachers in participating private schools in the ESC program.
The amount of the financial assistance shall be as follows:
1. For all Incoming Grade 7 and existing Grade 8 grantees starting SY 2015-2016, the amount of
the subsidy for those enrolled in ESC participating schools in regions outside NCR shall be Seven Thousand Five Hundred Pesos (P7,500.00) per grantee for an entire school year, subject to adjustments approved by the State Assistance Council (SAC). However, if the tuition and other fees
(TFOFs) charged by a school are lower than the ESC grant, the amount that shall be paid the
school shall not be more than the TFOFs it charges. Meanwhile, the amount of subsidy for Grade
9 & 10 ESC grantees shall be the same as that received by these students in the previous school
year, SY 2014-2015 (Grades 9 & 10 P6,500.00.00 per grantee). However, if the tuition and other fees (TFOFs) charged by a school are lower than the ESC grant, the amount that shall be paid
the school shall not be more than the TFOFs it charges.
2. In NCR, the amount of subsidy shall be Ten Thousand Pesos (Php 10,000.00) per grantee for an
entire school year. This is in recognition of the fact that private school tuition and all other fees
are much higher in NCR than in the rest of the country.
3. The amount of salary subsidy for qualified teachers in ESC participating schools shall be equivalent to Twelve Thousand Pesos (Php 12,000.00) per teacher per year or One Thousand Pesos (Php
1,000.00) per month, subject to adjustment by SAC. The subsidy is subject to witholding tax.
