 Objectives of the LRMDS
1. Strengthened Learning Resource
development and distribution systems at
Regional and Divisional levels.
2. Improved of instructional and learning
materials system through support for the
assessment, acquisition, adaptation,
development, production and distribution of
teaching/learning materials to schools.
 Objectives of the LRMDS
3 Digitized available student learning materials
(including from PASMEP, PROBE, PRODED,
BEAM, TEEP, SEDIP, etc), particularly for
reading in the early grades and TLE programs,
English, Science and Mathematics in other
grades, ADM and ALS.
4 Enhanced provisions of quality instructional and
learning materials, particularly in reading in
early grades and TLE, English, Science and
Mathematics in other grades.
 Objectives of the LRMDS
5. Modified and enhanced instructional and
learning materials for implementing
Alternative Delivery Modes and Learning
Systems.
6. Improved development and utilisation of
Quality Assurance (including Monitoring
and Evaluation) systems for provision
and utilisation of learning resources.

 Vision
Adaptive learning resource systems,
fully functioning at the region and
division levels, effectively developing
and distributing adequate and varied
learning resources to teachers and
learners from both the formal basic
education and ALS systems
 What is LRMDS?
The Learning Resources Management and
Development System provides the
mechanisms to support coordinated and
integrated access to quality resources by
DEP ED Regions, Divisions and
Cluster/School levels.
