What is punctuality? Being on time and or/paying close attention to being somewhere when needed exactly. Punctuality is being on time-for a meeting,
with a delivery or for work (http:// wiki.answer.com.) hence, punctuality can be a policy in the management of time.Similarly, the proverb says it, Honesty is
the best policy. If we are punctual in reporting to work then we are being honest of our time. This should be practiced in any field of endeavor and this is being
given consideration in the Department of Education, the largest bureaucracy in the government.
In 2008, the Department released Dep Ed Memorandum Nos.160 and 387 as a significant step in bringing about fundamental change or societal
transformation in all Dep Ed officials and employees to strengthen the values of punctuality and honesty.W.A.T.C.H (We are Time Conscious and Honest) was
being conceptualized in support of the said goal. Further, the then President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo issued Presidential Proclamation No. 1782 on May
21,2009 entitled Declaring the Month of June as W.A.T.C.H Month and Enjoining All Schools Colleges, Universities and Local Government Units (LGUs) to
undertake Programs of Activities Relating Thereto Every Second Week of June. Its major goal is to push forward the recognition of punctuality and honesty as
two core values in national renewal and development.
For the sustainability of this under taking, it was being listed in the Calendar of Activities S.Y 2014-2015 ( Dep Ed Order.# 18, s. 2014) as one of those
activities mandated by law.
To ensure the continuing success of this project W.A.T.C.H schools will still be using the guidelines set forth in Dep Ed Memo # 410, s.2009.
