The Philippine Normal University-South Luzon campus is the fourth regional campus established by the university in the municipality of Lopez, Quezon as part of its vision of becoming "the primary source of high-quality teachers and education managers that can directly inspire and shape the quality of Filipino students and graduates in the country and the world."
The PNU Quezon campus started its operation in 1979 by offering teacher education courses in consortium with the Polytechnic University of the Philippines - Lopez, Quezon branch wherein the laboratory high school department of the latter became the training ground of the aspiring teachers.
When the consortium agreement between the two state universities expired in 1993, PNU continued its operation in the town by transferring to Lopez National Comprehensive High School campus. Similar to the previous arrangement with PUP, PNU also used the facilities of the LNCHS until 1999. During that six-year period, it gradually acquired its own site thru land donations from the municipal and provincial governments. Its new and own campus is located adjacent to the LNCHS and a few hundred meters away from PUP.
