Here is a blog prepared by Angel Santos, one of our core staff in the communications team of DepEd. She is a 2nd generation public servant. She is a millennial who has great aspirations for our people and our country. She talks about how the Department intensified its efforts to reach out to the unserved and underserved areas by taking the extra mile. Caring for our learners require partnering with other stakeholders who share the same vision of building the nation. - Rey Laguda
One of the missions of the Department of Education (DepEd) is to look out for and reach out to Filipino learners who have a hard time accessing formal education. For the past six years, DepEd has put in place several interventions and programs that aim to reach those in the peripheries--because real education is about making sure that everyone is part of the education system and ensuring that education responds to each learner’s needs. But of course, education is not just DepEd’s responsibility alone. Education is everyone’s responsibility.
