DepEd Order No.025
I - Rationale

    The Department of Education (DepEd) has been implementing an education program for the Muslim learners through the Madrasah Education Program (MEP) since 2004. In  accordance to Deped Order No. 41, s. 2017 entitled Policy Guidelines on Madrasah Education in the K to 12 Basic Education Program that aims to provide the Muslim learners with appropriate and relevant educational opportunities while recognizing  their cultural context and unique  purposes for participating in the Program offerings and integrate content and competencies which are relevant and of interest to Muslim learners.

    The revision of the policy guidelines is necessary due to the separation of Bangsamoro Autonomous Region inMuslim Mindanao (BARMM) by virtue to the Republic ActNo. 11054 or known as  the "Organic Law for the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao". The occurrence of the pandemic also necessitates the need for the revision of some provisions to ensure the continuous delivery of quality education among Muslim Filipino learners.

 II - Scope

    This guideline shall provide the rules for the availment, utilization,liquidation, monitoring, evaluation, and reporting of Madrasah Program Support Fund (PSF) at the central office(CO), regional offices (ROs) and schools  division offices (SDOs) including the funds  provided for the compensation and allowances of the asatidz under Contract of Service (COS) handling ALIVE classes in public schools. These guidelines shall be effective starting FY 2021.
