School opening adjustments

Due to the impacts of Typhoon Carina and the southwest monsoon (habagat), which caused widespread flooding in many areas, DepEd has announced adjustments to the school opening in public schools scheduled for July 29.

DepEd confirmed that 738 public schools will not be able to proceed with the school opening next week due to damages sustained to infrastructure and other education resources.

DepEd said the 738 schools mentioned will "postpone their openings" on July 29 for "clean-up and rehabilitation activities."

Meanwhile, DepEd clarified that "flood-free schools with minimal damage will open as scheduled to avoid disrupting the education of our young learners."

In a press briefing earlier, Education Secretary Sonny Angara said that DepEd cannot postpone the school opening in all schools nationwide because "learning loss is very real."

“Gusto man ng iba ng (some people might want) ‘wholesale’ postponement but we cannot do it,” Angara said, noting that the Philippines is among the countries with the most number of lost school days.
