THE Department of Education on Monday issued revised guidelines on class and work suspensions during disasters and emergencies, aiming to ensure learning continuity.
Previously, classes and work from Kindergarten to Grade 12 and the Alternative Learning System were automatically canceled in local government units under any TCWS. For Orange or Red Rainfall Warnings and Critical Water Levels, class suspensions follow the same protocol as in DO 37, with automatic suspensions if issued before or during class hours.
