TAYO PARA SA EDUKASYON CAMPAIGN GUIDEBOOK
FOR INTERNAL STAKEHOLDERS OF THE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION (DEPED)
Chapter 1: Know It
Change is not a Challenge, but an Opportunity.
The Department of Education makes up more than 50% of government, with over 640,000 personnel spread across 220 divisions and 17 regions. And these numbers will only continue to grow in the coming months and years, due to the implementation of education reforms such as the K to 12 program, a necessary move that will equip our learners to compete at a global level.
This is indeed a time of great change, and while change is never easy, it always presents an opportunity to become something better. Just as a learner transforms into a leader through years of education, so must we evolve as educators by never ceasing to be learners ourselves.
We have the privilege and the power of shaping the future today – for every leader in every sector who will steer the course of our country will be molded and guided by the education they receive as learners. It is our passion for education that will enable these future leaders to make meaningful contributions, not only to our country, but to the rest of the world.
