MANILA, Philippines — The Department of Education's (DepEd) Manila Division Office on Friday apologized for "any harm caused to individuals and groups", after one of the agency's self-learning modules placed presidential bet Vice President Leni Robredo in a bad light.

The DepEd's self-learning module "Introduction to Philosophy of the Human Person (Methods of Philosophizing)" published for Grade 11 students earlier made rounds online after the answers of two of its multiple choice questions referred to Robredo. 

"The Division office expressed its apology for any harm that the incident may have caused to individuals or groups. It committed to strictly abide by the quality control and conformance review process set by the Department when developing and producing learning modules," the DepEd Manila Division Office said in a statement sent to reporters Friday.
