The Department of Education (DepEd) announced on Friday that there will be no face-to face classes nationwide on Monday and Tuesday, April 15 and 16.
”In order to allow learners to complete pending assignments, projects, and other requirements as the end of school year is fast-approaching, all public schools nationwide shall implement asynchronous classes/distance learning on April 15-16,” the DepEd advisory said.
Teaching and non-teaching personnel in all public schools will not be required to report to their respective stations, it said.
However, activities organized by regional and schools division offices, such as regional athletic association meets and other division or school level programs, to be conducted on Monday and Tuesday may push through as scheduled, the advisory said.
Private schools are not covered by the advisory but have the option to implement the same, it added.
The official memorandum has been sent to the regional and schools division offices.*
