Briones said that she and her team at DepEd turned over to Duterte-Carpio a department that has persevered amid the Covid-19 pandemic and developed great initiatives for the Filipino learners.
In her message, Duterte-Carpio said that she will be inspired by the accomplishments and passion of Briones.
"I take inspiration from [her] courage, dedication, commitment, integrity, selflessness, and grace. But I will also take on the task with the reminder that we shall continue to find ways to improve basic education in terms of access, equity, quality, resiliency, and governance," she added.
Duterte-Carpio said that she aims to produce learners who can achieve their full potential.
The DepEd gave tribute to Briones and outgoing Undersecretaries Nepomuceno Malaluan, Diosdado San Antonio and Josephine Maribojoc for their service to the department.
