Keeping learner records accurate in the Department of Education’s Learner Information System (DepEd LIS) is a top priority for all schools. Whether it’s a misspelled name, incorrect gender, or birthdate error, these can affect enrollment, report card generation, and government reports.
Thankfully, DepEd LIS provides a Correction Facility that allows ICT Coordinators and School Heads to correct errors in a student’s basic profile.

📌 What is the Basic Profile in DepEd LIS?
The Basic Profile includes essential student information, such as:
-
Last Name
-
First Name
-
Middle Name
-
Extension Name
-
Gender
-
Birthdate
If any of these fields are incorrect, the school may submit a correction request through the LIS portal.
