 • According to then -
Sec. of Education Raul Roco, the 2002
BEC was based on a 16year study (starting
in 1986). Implementation of RBEC was
based on Executive Order No. 46, which in
turn was based on recommendations of the
Philippine Commission on Educational
Reforms (PCER), created on Dec. 7, 1998.
• “The restructuring of the curriculum is part of an
ongoing effort to improve the quality of learning.
We are focusing on the basics of improving litera
cy and numeracy while inculcating values across
learning areas to make it dynamic.” (Raul Roco)

 The RBEC articulated a Vision
and Mission:
“The Department of Education envisions every
learner to be functionally literate, equipped with life
skills, appreciative of arts and sports, and imbued
with the desirable values of a person who is
makabayan, makatao, makakalikasan, at maka-
Diyos.”
“The Vision is in line with DepEd’s mission to provide
quality basic education that is equitably accessible
to all and lays the foundation for lifelong learning
and service for the common good.”
