Students learn in a child-friendly, gender-sensitive, safe, and motivating environment.Epicureanism

Primary purpose of this philosophy was to attain happy and tranquil life. All societies are based solely on an agreement of men not to harm each other – a mutual advantage.

Students learn in a child-friendly, gender-sensitive, safe, and motivating environment.Plato’s Philosophy

Motivation and interest plays a vital role in learning. He was against the use of force of education.

Teachers facilitate learning and constantly nurture every learner.Plato’s Philosophy

The educator is considered to have great importance, thus he is the constant guide of the students.

Administrators and staff, as stewards of the Institution, ensure an enabling and supportive environment for effective learning to happen.Epicureanism

Goodness: Such an existence in the company of a few like-minded friends will provide the reassurance and good fellowship necessary for peace of mind, ataraxia.

Administrators and staff, as stewards of the Institution, ensure an enabling and supportive environment for effective learning to happen.Plato’s Philosophy

An educator is like a torch bearer who leads students from dark cave of innocence into the bright light of knowledge.

DepEd Vision

DepEd VisionWe dream of Filipinos

who passionately love their countryand whose values and competencies 

enable them to realize their full potentialand contribute meaningfully to building the

nation.

As a learner-centered public institution,the Department of Educationcontinuously improves itself 

to better serve its stakeholders.

“…whose values and competencies enable them to realize their full potential…” Rousseau’s Philosophy

We prepare the child to live life by attainment of fullest natural growth leading to balanced, harmonious and useful life. The focus of Émile is upon the individual tuition of a boy/young man in line with the principles of ‘natural education’. ‘Make the citizen good by training’, Jean-Jacques Rousseau writes, ‘and everything else will follow’.

“…and contribute meaningfully to building the nation.”Plato’s Philosophy

This aim, on the other hand, doesn’t focus on personal growth but the service of the state, which is a guarantor of the happiness of its citizens, for as long as they allow it to be the embodiment of justice.
