DepEd has to enable policies & mechanisms from which the delivery of quality basic education can be continuously improved. Chapter 1 sec. 7 of RA 9155 states that DepEd is mandated to “undertake national educational research and studies” from which it can become part of the basis for necessary reforms and policy inputs.
The current administration recognized the need for evidence-based policy development by instituting reforms that strengthened transparency & accountability among government entities. In support of these, DepEd has issued
DO 13, s. 2015 – aims to establish a policy development process that provides for systematic, evidence-based and participatory mechanisms for formulation, adoption & review of policies of DepEd.
RatPlan – provided the right unit & positions that will manage the research & policy development process in the DepEd.
Recognizing the importance of research in improving delivery of basic education services, DepEd started to provide funding facility for research through the BERF under DO 24, s. 2010
