The District Colleges of the Pamantasan ng Lungsod ng Maynila was established in 2001 through the Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) between the Manila Mayor, the Department of Education (DepEd) Secretary, the PLM President, and the Superintendent of the Division of City Schools-Manila. Three existing public schools are allowed to be utilized to house the students and facilities of the PLM District Colleges.[1] These schools are Antonio Villegas Technical School in Tondo (District I), Ramon Avanceña High School in Quiapo (District III).[2]

Another MOA was signed with the Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA) to provide partnership with the City government through the PLM education system.[3]

On May 31, 2002, the Department of Social Welfare of Manila, conducted the Integrated Early Childhood Care and Development (IECCD). It was the first academic course conducted in the District Colleges through the auspices of the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF).[4]
