The Department of Education (DepEd) has issued a memorandum dated 28 March 2025, providing important guidance and clarifications on School Form 10 (SF10) for the End of School Year (EOSY) 2024-2025. The memo also reaffirms protocols for Senior High School (SHS) learner status tagging.
📌 Key Points from the Memorandum:
1. Updated School Forms
DepEd emphasizes the use of updated School Form 9 (Learner Progress Report Card) and School Form 10 (Learner Permanent Record) for EOSY documentation. These reflect learners' progress, subject performance, and enrollment records.
2. Alignment with MATATAG Curriculum
Consistent with DepEd Order No. 10, s. 2024, the new curriculum called the MATATAG Curriculum is being rolled out for Grades 1, 4, and 7. Changes in subject areas for these levels must now be reflected in SF9 and SF10.
3. Interim Forms Adoption
While final revisions are still underway, all schools must temporarily use the revised School Form 10, specifically:

Annex I – Grade 1 - Click here to download Revised School Form 10
-
Annex II – Grade 4 - Click here to download Revised School Form 10
-
Annex III – Grade 7 - Click here to download Revised School Form 10
4. Special Instructions for Grade 4 Advisers (K to 12 Curriculum)
For students under the old K to 12 Basic Education Curriculum:
-
No need to rewrite previous grade data on the new SF10.
-
Advisers must attach the old SF10 and indicate in the “remarks” section:
“See attached revised School Form 10 with learning areas based on DO 10, s. 2024.”
A downloadable template is available from the Learner Information System (LIS) to help accommodate transitions for Grade 4 learners.
5. NLPA Tagging Reversion
DepEd is reverting from "No Longer Participating in Learning Activities (NLPA)" back to "No Longer in School (NLS)" in both SF2 and LIS. The NLPA label was temporarily introduced during the COVID-19 pandemic.
6. Terminology Update
The term “death” in the LIS will now be updated to “deceased.”
7. Senior High School (SHS) Status Tagging Guidelines
To ensure consistency and clarity in learner monitoring, the memo provides definitions for SHS semester and school year statuses:
a. End of Semester Status
-
Incomplete: Learners who failed to meet expectations in one or more subjects (grade below 75%).
-
Complete: Learners who passed all subject areas (minimum 75% grade).
-
No Longer in School: Learners who left before the end of the semester.
b. End of School Year Status
-
Regular: Learners who completed all subject requirements for both semesters.
-
Irregular: Learners who failed to meet requirements in one or both semesters.
8. For Inquiries and Clarifications
For further assistance, stakeholders are encouraged to reach out to the Policy and Planning Service – Education Management Information System Division (PPS-EMISD).
🎓 Why This Matters This move marks a significant step in streamlining school forms, aligning data collection with curriculum reforms, and improving learner tracking nationwide. With the rollout of the MATATAG Curriculum, these changes are essential to ensure that education records remain clear, accurate, and updated.
