DepEd urges LGUs to balance safety, learning amid prolonged class suspensions
The Department of Education (DepEd) urged local government units (LGUs) to balance decisions on class suspensions with the need for learning continuity.
DepEd emphasized that while LGUs have the authority to suspend classes for public safety, extended suspensions can disrupt students' academic progress and development.
The department will coordinate with Schools Division Offices (SDOs) to deploy alternative learning delivery modes for affected students.
This advisory follows instances of consecutive class suspensions in some areas due to weather, disaster preparedness, and health precautions.
