We dream of Filipinos who passionately love their country and whose competencies and values 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. 

To protect and promote the right of every Filipino to quality, equitable, culture-based, and complete basic education where:

• students learn in a child-friendly, gender-sensitive, safe, and motivating environment;

• teachers facilitate learning and constantly nurture every learner;

• administrators and staff, as stewards of institution, ensure an enabling and supportive environment for effective learning to happen;

• family, community, and other stakeholders are actively engaged and share responsibility for developing.
