The shift to blended learning, DepEd said, will “allow teachers to participate in activities” in this year’s celebration of National Teachers' Day (NTD) and World Teachers' Day (WTD) and will also “give them ample time to complete election-related duties” for the 2023 BSKE.
All in-person classes in public elementary and secondary schools, including community learning centers of the Alternative Learning System (ALS), DepEd said, “shall shift to the various blended learning modalities” such as modular distance and asynchronous classes.
