BASAHIN: BAGONG GUIDELINES PARA SA LIGTAS NA PAGKATUTO

Sa bagong Executive Order No. 130 ni Pangulong Bongbong Marcos, hindi na one-size-fits-all ang class suspension. Mas tutok na at batay sa aktwal na sitwasyon sa inyong lugar.

Sa bawat araw na sarado ang classroom nang hindi naman kailangan, may nawawalang pagkatuto sa mga bata. Pero safety pa rin ang number one priority. Sa guidelines na ito, kahit walang face-to-face, maari pa ring ituloy ang pag-aaral sa pamamagitan ng flexible learning options.

Maraming salamat sa ating mga school heads at g**o na nagsisilbing ikalawang magulang ng ating mga anak at nangunguna sa pagpapatupad ng mga patakarang nagsisig**o sa kaligtasan at proteksyon ng bawat mag-aaral. 💙
