TIPS IN WRITING AND ANSWERING CORRESPONDENCE

An ORDER (DedEd/Regional/Division/District/School Order) issued as needed for the announcements of policies and guidelines which is permanent in nature unless it is amended.

A MEMORANDA (DedEd/Regional/Division/District/School Memo) is issued if you need to disseminate instructions and information which is temporary in nature

Try to visit DepEd Website for the Sample of Memorandum and Order and how are you going to write it properly.

Proper way to write endorsement

If you will send endorsement to a higher rank use “RESPECTFULLY FORWARDED TO”

If you will send endorsement to an equal rank use “RESPECTFULLY TRANSMITTED TO”

If you will send endorsement to a subordinate use “RESPECTFULLY REFERRED TO”

See sample endorsements in your office.

Example:

If the School Principal will write an endorsement to the Schools Division Superintendent

     Respectfully forwarded to _____________________ Schools Division Superintendent,  Division of City Schools ________________, the herein basic communication of ________________________.........
