UPDATES AND REMINDERS ON THE NATIONAL QUALIFYING EXAMINATION FOR SCHOOL HEADS (NQESH) FOR FY2021
With the restrictions brought about by the ongoing pandemic and the preparation time required to employ the online assessment system in consideration of security issues, priority areas, quarantine status, procurement, and other logistical concerns, the conduct of the NQESH shall be moved to March 2022. Specific details related to this examination shall be announced in a separate memorandum.
As a precaution, please be reminded that DepEd values the credibility and integrity of the examination. The agency is NOT, in any way, affiliated with individuals, institutions, or organizations offering and providing review sessions or claiming to have access to the content of the examination. However, to support qualified NQESH takers, Schools Division Offices (SDOs) through the Human Resource Development Unit are encouraged to design and provide appropriate learning and development interventions that are aligned with the Philippine Professional Standards for School Heads.
All initiatives and activities shall be strictly free of charge and not be conducted during class/office hours. Schools Division In-Service Training (INSET) funds may be used for expenses, subject to the usual accounting and auditing rules and regulations.
