Department of Education
The leadership competence of school heads is considered next only to classroom instruction
in creating great schools and helping learners succeed. School heads are expected to set the vision,
guide instruction, manage resources, unite the team, lead teamwork and sustain the drive for results.
Their jobs are an extraordinary mix of small details and big ideas that are crucial in managing the
basic education sector of the country.
Republic Act 9155 or the Governance of Basic Education Act of 2001 requires that a school
head shall be both an instructional leader and an administrative manager. Additionally, Republic
Act 10533 or the Enhanced Basic Education Act of 2013 mandates that school heads/principals
should possess skills for them to properly play their roles as academic, administrative, and
community leaders in the Department of Education (DepEd).
The development of school head leadership competencies has likewise been found to be
directly related to the level of school performance results. Schools that have poor performance
results are most likely to have principals or school heads who are not appropriately skilled and
trained for school management and leadership (Mathibe, 2007).
The need to enhance these multi-dimensional roles of school heads is also highlighted in the
context of DepEd Region VI – Western Visayas, known as the “Home of Champions,” where the
regional mantra “…where every child is a Champion” has been adopted. Anchored on the principle
of producing champions among learners regardless of color, gender, socio-economic status,
religion, race, disability or appearance, school heads are expected to lead in performing curricular
and co–curricular programs and activities to live up to the adage that “it takes a champion to create
another champion” in education.
Champion children will be produced by champion teachers, and champion teachers will be
developed by champion school heads. Hence, there is a need to enable, educate, train, and develop
the school heads to best prepare them to champion school leadership and management. The
champion school heads are expected to take good care of teachers, and teachers shall in turn take
good care of school children and learners to champion basic education and community service.

Aligned with the “Sulong Edukalidad” initiative of the Department, the SHA will deliver
professional development course/subjects leading to a post-graduate degree in education for the
development and enhancement of future principal’s work-related potentials. Apart from the goal to
upskill and reskill the teachers and school leaders in the region for their in-service professional
development, the SHA also seeks to provide proper incentives through career progression and
promotion opportunities as they pursue their career path. Finally, a holistic development framework
is adopted to ensure that the SHA will nurture not only the management and leadership skills of
potential school heads but will also deepen the moral formation and sensitization of the entire
organization according to set national policies, goals and standards.
The DepEd Region VI hereby establishes the SHA to develop champion school leaders in the
twenty (20) Schools Divisions in DepEd Region VI with partner SUCs/HEIs and sponsoring
organizations/institutions here and abroad. The SHA shall be implemented in phases, from the
selection of qualified recipients to the program, multi-modal delivery of academic subjects,
completion of academic requirements under the SHA through the school-based implementation of
the Re-Entry Action Plan (REAP) to the continuation and eventual graduation from the Master’s or
Doctorate degree program under the partner SUC/HEI.
The processes set herein will ensure that the mechanisms and procedures in the
implementation of the SHA shall:

III. Objectives
1. Admit a minimum of 200 qualified scholars across all the 20 Schools Division Offices
(SDOs) in Region VI for the initial implementation of the program and additional entrants
of at least 2% in each succeeding year;
2. Enrol qualified school heads who have met the minimum qualifications set by the
Academy and have passed the entry requirement of the partner SUC/HEI;
3. Develop the various leadership, management and technical-functional competencies and
the desired values of a school head as embodied in the SHA Framework in a
comprehensive and aligned curriculum under the tutelage of a partner SUC/HEI in
coordination with the RO and SDO SHA Committee;
4. Implement a school-based re-entry action plan project that addresses immediate problems
or issues for an improved school process;
5. Produce master’s or doctorate degree graduates in the program with full financial support
from the identified sponsoring agency(ies)/institution(s); and
6. Produce qualifiers in the Principal’s Test/National Qualifying Examination for School
Heads (NQESH) that are ready for appointment to a school head position.
The establishment of the SHA in DepEd Region VI espouses the following principles relative
to the management and leadership functions of a school head:
1. It is adherent to DepEd Order No. 24, s. 2020 on the National Adoption and
Implementation of the Philippine Professional Standards for School Heads domains,
strands and competencies and DepEd Memorandum No. 50, s. 2020 on the DepEd
Professional Development Priorities for Teachers and School Leaders for School Year
2020-2023 in the delivery of professional development course for school heads;
2. It highlights the self-mastery as the core competency of a school head to lead the
organization with a purpose who is committed to work towards the realization of the
organizational goals with focus, determination and honor;

5. It recognizes the importance of acquiring the appropriate values and attitudes that
encompass the performance of his/her roles and functions as school head; and
7. It covers the major expected outcomes for continuous school improvement namely:
inspiring leadership, technical-functional expertise, and effective management.
The SHA consists of three domains and nine competencies that will lead to its core of fostering
self-mastery and growing emotional quotient, all of which are necessary to mold the aspiring school
leaders to be effective and efficient in their manager-leaders.
The SHA framework depicts a broad conceptual sphere of leadership practices that constitutes
for the attainment of the goals and aspirations of DepEd Region VI to produce a Champion in every
learner as embodied in the regional mantra towards the realization of the DepEd vision and mission.
It clearly states that an effective school head is the one who transforms institutional culture for the
betterment of the learners, teachers and the entire school community.

E. Delivery Modality
The program will be delivered through a multi-modal approach where the partner
SUC/HEI at their rightful disposition will adopt various modalities/platforms for as long as the
scholars can experience a diverse learning style that is meant to improve or develop their
competencies as an incumbent or aspiring school heads by matching the curriculum content
with the suitable mode of learning delivery (synchronous and asynchronous).
F. Schedule Options
The conduct of formal classes may be done in the following options at the discretion
of the partner SUC/HEI:
a. Saturday (whole day) and Sunday (half-day) sessions
b. MWF Scheme (1 ½ hour/session day, preferably from 5:30 PM – 7:00 PM)
c. TTH Scheme (2 hours/session day, preferably from 5:30 PM – 7:30 PM)
G. Teaching Approaches/Strategies
To better make the course relevant and meaningful, it is suggested that varied
teaching approaches/strategies be explored to ensure maximum scholar involvement and
learning. Conventional reporting method is highly discouraged.
a. Case Method/Study. The approach will provide the scholars a deeper and more
detailed as well as a more individually relevant understanding of a complex research problem.
This will further their competency to conducting future research studies.
b. Research-based Method. The scholars are taught to analyze, summarize and utilize
results of educational researches that will motivate them to develop an investigative attitude
and can create opportunities for acquisition of knowledge in a conceptually consistent way, in
addition to the development of the required skills and competencies.
c. Mobile Learning or M-Learning. Learning across multiple contexts, through social
content interactions, using personal electronic mobile devices that the scholars may use at their
convenient time.
H. End-of-Program Output
The scholars are required to submit a proposal of a ReAP using the SHA Form 007
to the SDO SHA Committee for approval by the Schools Division Superintendent (SDS) and
implement in their respective schools within 3 to 6 months duration depending on the
complexity of the program or activity and as determined by the SDO SHA Committee

concerned. At the end of the implementation, the scholar is required to prepare a Project
Accomplishment Report (PAR) using the SHA Form 008 and submit the same to the SDO SHA
Committee for verification and approval. The RO and SDO SHA Committees together with the
partner SUC/HEI will monitor and evaluate the implementation of the ReAP using the SHA
Form 009.
IX. Partnership
Partnership building takes a vital role to fulfill the goals of the SHA in producing prolific and
competent school heads. This will give the opportunity to all potential partners to implement their
extension services and corporate social responsibility (CSR) adhering to Republic Act 8525, otherwise
known as “An Act Establishing the Adopt-A-School Program and Providing Incentives Therefore and
for Other Purposes,” which was enacted to encourage private companies and other public and
government-owned institutions to assist in the delivery of quality education to public schools in the
country.
The SHA opens up opportunities for SUCs/HEIs here and abroad to offer scholarship
grants/programs/assistance to all incumbent or aspiring school heads of Region VI. This will also pave
a way to Congressional, Provincial and Local Government Units (LGU) to commence scholarship
programs to teachers/scholars who aspire to lead a school in the locality in the future.
Hence, the SDO that will be the prime mover in the implementation of the SHA is expected to
secure resources through partnership agreements among academic institutions (SUCs/LUCs/HEIs),
private sector entities as well as the government agencies and its LGUs as funding
institution/organization for the scholarship of the recipients.
As such there is a need to forged a partnership agreement between the identified SUC/HEI,
private institutions and/or LGUs to ensure that the identified scholars are given appropriate financial
support in terms of tuition fees and other miscellaneous expenses in the duration of their study under
the SHA and even up to the completion of their post-graduate course under the identified SUC/HEI.
To fully implement the SHA in the 20 SDOs of Region VI in terms of curriculum and academic
requirements, the SDO concerned will look for a potential partner SUC/HEI for the alignment of the
proposed curriculum set herein to the existing program of the school on administration and supervision
and other related post-graduate courses and adoption of pre-requisites of the SHA such as the
implementation of ReAP prior the completion of the program.

The School Division Superintendents (SDSs) are given the authority to represent in
behalf of the Regional Director of Region VI to engage partnership among identified potential
partners.
It is up to the SDOs through its Social Mobilization & Networking (SM&N) Section of
the School Governance and Operations Division (SGOD) to lay down and convince the partner
on what modality of partnership they will engage to and are expected that these agreements
made are stipulated in the MOA or MOU. It is important to note in the MOA between the SDO
and the identified partner SUC/HEI the features in the delivery of the program such as the
alignment of the curriculum, delivery modalities, admission requirements, retention,
continuation of the post-graduate program after completion of the requirements of the SHA,
and payment of fees and other areas related to academic program and curriculum
implementation.
The MOA template set herein will serve as guide for the SDOs in crafting their
respective MOAs depending on the agreements made between the identified partner and other
applicable provisions that may be included. It is expected that all drafted MOA shall be
reviewed by the SDO’s Legal Officer as member of the SDO SHA Committee prior the formal
signing.
X. Post-Qualification Trainings/Activities
Qualified applicants shall undergo the following activities as part of the professional development
program that will be delivered by the SDO and/or RO:

INSTRUCTIONS:
1. This Re-Entry Action Plan (ReAP) is a prerequisite to completion in the School Heads Academy (SHA)
after having satisfactorily met the essential academic requirement of 15-18 units under the partner
SUC/HEI.
2. Just like with other project-based learning, the ReAP requires much preparation from planning,
implementation to evaluation of the results. Project-based learning is focused on teaching by engaging
the scholars in investigation. Within this framework, the scholars will pursue solutions to nontrivial
problems by asking and refining questions, debating ideas, making predictions, designing plans and/or
experiments, collecting and analyzing data, drawing conclusions, communicating their ideas and
findings to others, asking new questions, and creating artifacts (Blumenfeld et.al. “Motivating Project-
Based Learning: Sustaining the Doing, Supporting the Learning – Educational Psychologist Magazine
– 2020).
3. This ReAP proposal template will guide the scholar in planning for the project of his/her choice. He/she
will identify a specific school concern that needs to be addressed in 3-6 months period. It is important
to remember that in the implementation of the ReAP, many of the content standards learned in the SHA
will be applied in the school-based setting. With these standards in mind, a scholar will devise a plan
that will integrate as many subjects as possible into the project.
4. In the course of the 3-6 months implementation of the ReAP, the RO and SDO SHA Committee will
conduct regular monitoring to ensure that the processes identified in the proposal are met and satisfied
and at the end of the implementation, they will do the evaluation of the project with the identified faculty
of the partner SUC/HEI using the rubrics stipulated herein.

INTRODUCTION:
The Strategic Plan for Professional Development for School Heads (SPPDSH) is the blueprint of
the Schools Division Offices (SDOs) that will direct and influence their activities related to professional
development (PD) of school heads over a given period. The SPPDSH sets out the SDO’s professional
development goals identified by the aspiring school heads themselves, their superior’s and peer’s assessment
through the competency assessment tool administered as part of the profiling of all the applicants to the
School Heads Academy (SHA). The SPPDSH describes the prioritized development programs and activities
to address the professional development competency gaps of the aspiring school heads of the SDO based on
the Philippine Professional Standards for School Heads (PPSSH) through the provision of various learning
and development activities and interventions.
The SPPDSH is accomplished to enable the SDO to plan and prioritize the PD activities needed by
the school heads. The SPPDSH further identifies the specific details of the PD activities, which will take
place to achieve the over-all professional development goals of the SDO. This will serve as a guide of the
SDO in the systematic conduct of their PD activities in the next three (3) years in consonance to DepEd
Memorandum No. 50, s. 2020 on the DepEd Professional Development Priorities for Teachers and School
Leaders for School Year 2020-2023, with a certain degree of flexibility as reviewed by the SDO SHA
Committee in a regular basis.
In the development of the SPPDSH, the following guiding principles are considered:
1. PD plans and programs are focused on the improvement of knowledge, skills and attitude of the
aspiring school heads of the SDO.
2. All the schools heads and aspiring school heads are provided with equal opportunities to
participate in ongoing and continuous PD in order to enhance their current level of competency.
3. Effective strategies are utilized to increase participation and involvement of target participants
without prejudice to the existing health and safety protocols implemented in the locality.
4. PD programs and activities are formative, cyclical, and accurately collects and analyses data
through the M&E system to improve future activities.
5. The SPPDSH are aligned in a unified approach to the achievement of DepEd’s thrusts and
programs as stipulated in various issuances.
6. Although the SPPDSH outlines the PD activities to be carried out by the SDO from the
competency assessment of the aspiring school heads, it is flexible enough to incorporate emerging priorities
of the SDO.
