Defining the News
President Marcos said the July 29 opening of schools will not be postponed even as he acknowledged that some schools in storm-hit areas might be forced to conduct classes outside their buildings.
“Maybe some will be forced to hold classes outside the school building just to have classes. Let’s see. It’s like that – we’ve gotten used to it during the pandemic. We’ll find a way to still have classes,” he added. The Department of Education reported on Friday that a total of 12,866 basic learning institutions were damaged by this week’s typhoons and monsoon rains.
As of Thursday, 90 schools in nine regions – including Metro Manila, Cordillera Administrative Region, Ilocos Region, Cagayan Valley, Central Luzon, Calabarzon, Mimaropa, Western Visayas, and Eastern Visaya – were reported to have been badly damaged by the typhoons. Otherwise known as the Expanded Career Progression System for Teachers, the EO aims to promote development among teachers through career advancement.
