Wazzup Pilipinas!?


The Department of Education (DepEd) is set to release the Php 20,000 Service Recognition Incentive (SRI) for teaching and non-teaching personnel — a first for the agency’s staff to receive the maximum grant allowed — starting December 20, 2024.

As instructed by President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr., Education Secretary Sonny Angara and Department of Budget and Management (DBM) Secretary Amenah Pangandaman worked together to provide the full amount of Php 20,000 SRI for 2024.

Following the release of Administrative Order No. 27 by the Office of the President, DepEd has begun processing the necessary requirements for the disbursement of the SRI 2024 — the biggest in history for DepEd.

Education Secretary Sonny Angara reiterated his gratitude to President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. and DBM Secretary Amenah Pangandaman for ensuring that teachers and non-teaching personnel are given the full SRI allowed for their unwavering commitment in basic education.

“This is a historic moment for DepEd, as we are able to grant the highest SRI ever for our workforce. We are deeply grateful to President Marcos Jr. for his steadfast support in prioritizing the welfare of teachers and staff who serve as the backbone of the education sector,” Secretary Angara said.

“We also thank DBM Secretary Amenah Pangandaman for working with us to provide this incentive to our personnel. It is a testament to how much we value the dedication and sacrifices of our education frontliners, especially as they continue to ensure learning excellence amidst all challenges,” he added.

Following the release of a DBM Circular Letter and a DepEd Memorandum on FY 2024 SRI, the funding of SRI will be downloaded to Regional Offices (ROs) on December 20, 2024, for immediate disbursement.
