In a Facebook post, Remulla said the suspension aims to give way to the ongoing influenza-like illness surveillance and the preparation for “The Big One,” a possible major earthquake.
“Sa panahon ng suspensyon ng face-to-face classes, ipatutupad ang Alternative Delivery Mode gaya ng online classes at modular learning upang matiyak ang tuloy-tuloy na pagkatuto ng mga mag-aaral (During the suspension of face-to-face classes, the Alternative Delivery Mode will be implemented, such as online classes and modular learning, to ensure the continuous learning of students),” Remulla said.
