The Department of Education said that it wanted to get rid of the stigma surrounding summer camps in light of the National Learning Camp program, which is set to launch on July 24.
According to DepEd spokesperson Michael Poa, DepEd formed the learning camp with the need for learning interventions in mind following the release of international assessments finding learning loss in Philippine basic education.“Ang sabi nga natin, nung dati, ‘pag nag-summer class ka o nag-remedial class ka, ibig sabihin nun ay bumagsak ka or mababa yung grades mo.
(Before, it was said that you failed or had low grades when you attended summer or remedial classes. That is a stigma that we want to get rid of because our priority now is learning recovery after the pandemic.]
