basic education for all, the Department of Education (DepEd) continues to
provide the necessary educational interventions for learners with certain
exceptionalities through its Special Education (SpEd) program.

catering to the needs of learners with various exceptionalities, ensuring that
they will have access to quality education by giving them their individual and
unique learning needs.
This initiative caters to learners with visual impairment, hearing
impairment, intellectual disability, learning disability, autism spectrum
disorder, communication disorder, multiple disability with visual impairment,
and among others.
