In-person classes still primary mode of learning – DepEd
MANILA, Philippines — In-person classes will remain the primary learning delivery modality in all schools, the Department of Education (DepEd) announced ahead of the start of classes on July 29.
Under Department Order No. 9 released yesterday, outgoing DepEd Secretary and Vice President Sara Duterte said schools shall only transition to blended learning delivery modality once local government units and other authorized offices declare class suspensions.
“During such circumstances, teachers shall be required to provide home learning tasks that are suited to the specific needs of learners and the severity of the situation in their respective areas, ensuring access to print or non-print self-learning modules and the home learning plan to guide them in accomplishing assigned learning tasks,” the order read.
Duterte also reminded schools to provide students with instructional support should the students be forced to stay in evacuation centers for one week or more during times of disasters.
Meanwhile, DepEd set the Brigada Eskwela from July 22 to 27.
Oplan Balik Eskwela would be conducted from July 22 to Aug. 2.
