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