Education is a lifelong process. The pupil’s development in all aspects of learning must be given the paramount attention by teachers and school heads. Academics alone cannot guarantee a holistic development among school children. The educational system must always make every effort to provide children with opportunities that develop their social, physical, practical, intellectual and moral aspects of life necessary for community life and survive in a fast changing and complex society.

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.
