AGREEMENT FORM

Pursuant to the Constitutional mandate for the provision of free public education at the
elementary and secondary levels and to meet the country’s targets in the Education For All (EFA) Plan
2015 and the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) with respect to primary school participation there is
an urgent need to remove obstacles to the enrollment of school-age children. These obstacles include the
out-of-pocket costs which families have to bear in the course of sending their children to school.

In accordance with DepEd Order No. 19, s. 2008 “IMPLEMENTATION OF NO COLLECTION


POLICY IN ALL PUBLIC ELEMENTARY AND SECONDARY SCHOOLS”

Accordingly, the following policies on collection of fees in public schools shall be strictly observed:

No fees shall be collected from school children enrolling in pre-school up to Grade IV, during the
enrollment period and at any time during the school year. This prohibition shall cover, among others, the
authorized but voluntary contributions such as BSP, GSP, Red Cross, Anti-TB Fund and PTCA.

For grade and year levels beyond Grade 4, no collection of any type should be undertaken during the
enrolment period and the first month of classes. Starting on the second month, contributions for the
following may be collected, but only on a voluntary basis:

1. Boy/Girl Scouts membership


2. Red Cross Membership
3. Anti-TB Fund Drive
4. PTCA
5. School Publication
6. Membership in student organizations

PTCAs may start their collection only after presenting to their members and to the school
administration a report on the utilization of the previous school year’s collections. The amount of
contributions to the PTCA shall be agreed upon in a general assembly of the PTCA.
The school publication fee shall be set at the school level but shall not be more than P60.00 per
elementary school pupil and P90.00 per secondary school student. The publication of a school
newspaper, while not mandatory, is strongly encouraged, particularly at the secondary level in line with
the campus journalism program.
The membership fees for student organizations shall be set by the organization subject to existing
school policies on student organizations.
Pupils/students who are promoted to the next grade or year level are considered automatically
enrolled for the coming school year in the same school. Only pupils entering first grade, students entering
first year high school, and transferees from another public school or a private school need to enroll during
the enrolment period. Returning pupils/students shall report to school only for sectioning purposes or any
other pre-opening preparations as determined by the school administrators.
Regional and division offices are advised to undertake monitoring activities during the enrollment
period and the first month of classes to ensure that the provisions of this Order are strictly complied with.
Any violation should be subject to administrative action.

For immediate dissemination and strict compliance.
