MANILA — A former official of the Department of Education on Sunday urged President Rodrigo Duterte to delay the opening of classes scheduled on Aug.
24, saying schools were unprepared to implement new modes of teaching.
"What is 2 or 3 months in the waiting rather than go through a process na hindi natin sigurado ?" Abelita said in a media forum. "They don't even know what to do. Wala pa silang materyales . Even the methodology, hindi pa clear cut sa kanila ," he said. The DepEd plans to deliver lessons to students at home through printed and digital modules, online classes, television, and radio.
