Which DepEd Order relates to MADRASAH?

• A. DepEd Order no. 57 s. 2010
• B. DepEd Order no. 74 s. 2012
• C. DepEd Order no. 16 s. 2012
• D. DepEd Order no. 25 s. 2002

Answer: (A)

The main idea here is identifying the DepEd policy that directly governs Madrasah education. The DepEd order that explicitly provides the policy guidelines for the Madrasah Education Program (MEP) is the instrument that sets how Madrasah schools are recognized, how their curriculum aligns with the Basic Education Curriculum, and how Madrasah teachers and learners are supported within the public education system. It establishes the framework for integrating Madrasah education into the national basic education structure, including aspects like curriculum alignment, teacher qualifications, and student assessment. Because this order is specifically built to address Madrasah education, it is the best choice for relating to MADRASAH.

The other DepEd orders cover different subjects and initiatives and do not focus specifically on Madrasah education, so they don’t directly apply to the Madrasah framework in the same way.
