What is DepEd Order 24

Issued by the Department of Education on May 30, 2022, the DepEd Order (DO) 24, series (s.) 2022, closed the Basic Education Development Plan (BEDP) 2030. DepEd will use BEDP as the medium-term plan to cover all formal education, including Kindergarten (K), Elementary, Junior High School (JHS), Senior High School (SHS), and nonformal education via the Alternative Learning System (ALS). The plan is developed by considering the priorities and views of all stakeholders in the education sector to ensure the proper implementation of BEDP.

Furthermore, BEDP 2030 embeds the aspirations and priorities of DepEd, the national government development agenda, international commitments, and global trends in the educational sector, which are adapted based on the circumstances of the Philippines. Hence, all DepEd offices and units at all governance levels should modify their policies, plans, and programs by aligning them with BEDP 2030.
