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 — The Department of Education (DepEd) said on Thursday that its mandatory immunization policy for on-site workers, particularly those handling face-to-face classes, is not meant to discriminate against employees who choose to not get vaccinated.

 

The government requires personnel involved in face-to-face school activities to get vaccinated in a bid to prevent the spread of COVID-19 in schools. 

 

"The said policy does not and is not intended to unjustly discriminate against any DepEd employee who chooses not to be vaccinated," DepEd said in an emailed statement issued to reporters.
