The DepEd said the deadline for the performance review and evaluation was moved to Sept. 15 while the deadline for the performance rewarding and development planning was moved to Sept. 30.
The adjustment was aimed at avoiding possible grounds for disqualifications from monetary and non-monetary performance-related incentives.
