These free LAC templates give you five designs on long bond (8.5 x 13 in) and A4 for your School Learning Action Cell (SLAC): the facilitator’s session plan, a yearly school LAC plan, an attendance sheet, LAC minutes and a member’s reflection and monitoring sheet, each in colour and in black and white. I’m Patrick Elliott, a teacher and Inclusion Lead. I read DepEd Order No. 35, s. 2016 itself while designing these pages, so the session plan follows Annex 2, the yearly plan follows the Annex 1 headings and the minutes cover every item in para 35.6, and nothing here copies a division’s own form.

In this guide, you’ll find what DepEd Order No. 35, s. 2016 asks for in each document, which template you need before, during and after a session, and how to run a LAC session from plan to minutes.

What’s in the LAC Templates (DO 35, s. 2016)

Template	What it is for
LAC Session Plan	The facilitator’s plan: session details, focus, outline of activities and follow-up
Yearly School LAC Plan	Planning, Implementation and Evaluation by activities, people, time, funds and success indicators
LAC Attendance Sheet	Name, position, grade or learning area, role, time in and out, and signature for 25 members
LAC Minutes of the Meeting	Attendance, topics discussed, best practices, needs and concerns, evidence and next steps
LAC Reflection and Monitoring Sheet	A member’s session notes, classroom application log and facilitator feedback

👉 Every box is a Word table cell: click and type, and the row grows if you write more. The session plan already lists the order’s session flow, so you only add the times, names and details.

What Is a LAC Session?

A Learning Action Cell (LAC) is a small group of teachers who meet to solve shared teaching problems and learn together. DepEd Order No. 35, s. 2016 makes it the school-based way to keep improving teaching, and in schools it is usually called the SLAC. Under para 17.3, a LAC has 5 to 15 members, and each session lasts 1 to 2 hours. The school head serves as the LAC Leader, a facilitator runs each session, a documenter keeps the records, and a resource person may be invited. These are independent templates from Word Made Easy, not official DepEd documents, and carry no DepEd seal.

Which LAC Template Should You Use?

• LAC Session Plan: the facilitator’s plan from Annex 2 of the order, with the topic, objectives, materials and outline of activities, plus session details, roles, expected output and follow-up.
• Yearly School LAC Plan: a landscape plan based on the Annex 1 template, with planning, implementation and evaluation set against activities, persons involved, time frame, funds, source of funds and success indicators. Para 17 lets schools revise this template, and there is a row to link it to your SIP or AIP and to note the professional development needs from para 17.1.
• LAC Attendance Sheet: 25 rows for name, position, grade or learning area, role, time in, time out and signature, with a role key.
• LAC Minutes of the Meeting: the six things para 35.6 asks for: attendance, topics discussed, best practices shared, needs and concerns, evidence of whether the plan is working, and next courses of action.
• LAC Reflection and Monitoring Sheet: a member’s session notes and classroom application log, so you can report back at the next session.
• For ordinary staff meetings rather than LAC sessions, use the meeting agenda templates, meeting minutes templates, sign-in sheets or attendance sheets.
• Keeping evidence of your LAC work? See the PMES portfolio templates for your MOVs.

How to Run a LAC Session with These Templates

1. Choose long bond or A4 above, download the ZIP and fill in the yearly school LAC plan with your school head at the start of the year.
2. Before each session, the facilitator completes the session plan: the topic, objectives, materials and outline of activities.
3. Follow the flow in paras 18 and 19 of the order: a stimulus (input, demonstration or workshop), a collaborative discussion, then individual and group action planning.
4. Pass round the attendance sheet, while the documenter writes the minutes under the six headings.
5. After the session, members try the strategy in class, note it on the reflection and monitoring sheet and report back next time.

Many SLAC sessions this school year focus on the ILAW lesson plan, so you can plan a session around it with the ILAW lesson plan templates. Keep the minutes, attendance and outputs together, as the documenter’s records show what the LAC did. Always follow your school or division’s instructions and any forms they give you; these pages only help you stay organised.

Black and White Versions

Every template on this page also comes in a black and white version with the same layout: grey headings and an outlined title, so it prints clearly on any printer and saves ink. In the download box, choose Colour, Black and white or All, then your paper size: long bond, A4 or both.

---

How to Print the LAC Templates

Print at 100% (Actual size) on the same paper as the file. For long bond, load 8.5 x 13 inch paper and choose that size in the printer settings (it may be called Folio or Long). The yearly school LAC plan prints landscape. The black and white versions use grey headings, to save ink.
