The proposed school calendar covers an additional one week for remediation and intervention activities, as well as co-curricular and extra-curricular activities.

“Ang proposal po namin dahil kailangan ngang mag-double time ay kailangang magkaroon ng additional period para sa ating intervention activities and remediation. Ito pong school calendar natin ay it will be 215 days magsisimula po tayo on Aug. 22 at magtatapos po sa July 7, 2023 (We need to have an additional period for our intervention activities and remediation. This school calendar of ours will have 215 days. We will start on Aug. 22 and we will end on July 7, 2023) ,” said DepED Undersecretary for Curriculum and Instruction Diosdado San Antonio in a press conference.

The proposed school calendar likewise covers a two-week Christmas break beginning Dec. 19, while the resumption of classes will be on Jan. 2, 2023.

The end-of-year school rites will be conducted on July 10 to July 14, 2023 while all remedial, enrichment, or advanced classes during the “summer” period will be held on July 17, 2023 until Aug. 26, 2023.

At this phase, San Antonio said that the SY 2023-2024 may begin on Aug. 28, 2023.

Meanwhile, he added that DepED will continue to implement a blended learning scheme – an approach to education that integrates traditional in-person learning and online training.

“Sa darating na pasukan, ay blended po tayo. Mas marami na rin po ‘yung face-to-face, pero hindi tayo papayag na mga disruptions in classes in the form of activities during the 10 weeks that the quarter is on (In the coming school year, we will implement a blended learning scheme. There will be more face-to-face ones, but we will not allow any disruptions in classes in the form of activities during the 10 weeks that the quarter is on),” added San Antonio.

DepED Secretary Leonor Briones also highlighted that the Inter-Agency Task Force (IATF) for the Management of Emerging Infectious Diseases requires physical reporting of teachers in areas under Alert Level 1 and 2. However, Briones said that the Department will not give up on other approaches to learning.

“We are not giving up on online either – I would like to emphasize that. We are not giving up on the other approaches to learning, but at the same time we want to complement face-to-face with these other approaches,” said Briones.
