ABS-CBN offers transmission network, educational programs for distance learning

MANILA — ABS-CBN Corp.

said Monday it is offering its transmission network to help government air educational programs in the coming school year, which will see a shift from traditional classroom education to distance learning.

ABS-CBN also said it is offering government the use of all the educational programs it produced over the past 20 years. The media company made the statement hours after President Rodriog Duterte said TV frequencies returned to the government would be used to deliver "uninterrupted, quality education" to students at home.

Public schools are scheduled to begin classes on August 24 while private schools are allowed to start earlier upon seeking the approval of DepEd's regional directors.
