Face-to-face classes at St. Mary Elementary School in Marikina City on Monday, Jan. 3, 2022 have been suspended after authorities raised the pandemic warning to Alert Level 3 in Metro Manila due to rising COVID-19 cases.

MANILA, Philippines — Local education officials can suspend classes and other teaching-related activities as COVID-19 cases soar, the Department of Education said.

 

In a memorandum released Thursday, the DepEd allowed its regional offices and school division offices to suspend classes in January “based on their reliable assessment of the health status of their teachers and learners and the IATF risk classification.”

 

The period of class suspension should not exceed two weeks to avoid prolonged disruption in the current school calendar.
