DepED Quezon City Division Office

The Schools Division Office (SDO) Quezon City is a government education office under the Department of Education (DepEd) in the Philippines, specifically serving Quezon City within the National Capital Region. Its primary mission is to oversee and manage public education for nearly half a million learners in the city, ensuring quality education delivery. The office focuses on operationalizing national and regional education agendas, such as DepEd's five-point agenda (enabling learning environments, teacher welfare, learner well-being, efficient learning delivery, and a future-ready workforce) and the NCR's KICES priorities (Keeping children in school, Improving foundational skills, Capacitating educators, Ensuring child-friendly environments, and Strengthening governance). Key initiatives include the Education Summit 2025, which brought together stakeholders like students, parents, school administrators, and local officials to address issues like bullying through campaigns like BAD 'YAN, and the Gawad Parangal awards program, which recognizes excellence among teaching and non-teaching staff. Leadership is provided by Schools Division Superintendent Dr. Carleen S. Sedilla, with support from assistant superintendents. The office emphasizes collaboration with the Quezon City local government, community engagement, and integrity in public service, guided by themes like 'Husay, Integridad, Serbisyong may Puso' (Competence, Integrity, Heartfelt Service). It also handles administrative functions such as teacher recruitment, issuing advisories, and professional development, while combating misinformation through official channels like email and social media.
