A public school answers to a district, and the district to a schools division: 187 districts in 10 divisions, as the Department of Education files them for school year 2025–26. Each district with its schools, its learners and the towns it covers.

Divisions and districts are as DepEd names them for school year 2025–26; Maguindanao’s two divisions keep their old names, though the province has since split into del Norte and del Sur. Private schools, madaris and colleges answer to no district, so they are not counted here.
