What is the ILAW Format Under DepEd Order No. 16, s. 2026?

DepEd Order No. 16, s. 2026 applies to all MAPEH teachers across Grade 1 to Grade 10. MAPEH covers four learning areas — Music, Arts, Physical Education, and Health — each with its own competencies in the MATATAG Budget of Work.

The ILAW format is especially effective for MAPEH because the Learning Experiences section allows teachers to design performance-based, creative, and physical activities using the 8 Learning Design Principles. Assessment in MAPEH often uses rubrics, performance checklists, and portfolios — all of which fit the ILAW framework's flexible assessment section.

The 4 ILAW Sections — Quick Guide

I — Intentions

Learning Competency from the MATATAG Budget of Work, Content and Performance Standards, specific Learning Objectives, and Learner Context — your actual observations of your class including strengths, interests, and barriers to learning.

L — Learning Experiences

Pre-Lesson activity, Flow of activities using the 8 Learning Design Principles, Learning Resources, and Opportunities for Integration with other subjects.

A — Assessment

Formative Assessment tasks with accommodation strategies for learners with special needs and extension tasks for advanced learners.

W — Ways Forward

Extended Learning opportunities outside the classroom and Teacher Reflections after every lesson — what worked, what to improve, what students want to explore next.
