Our 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
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
