In order to strengthen learning advancement amid the pandemic, the Department reminded officials and school heads through a memorandum that SDOs will assist schools in deciding which appropriate learning modality will be used for remedial and advancement classes that suits the health situation of their community.
According to DepEd guidelines, a learner who receives a grade lower than 75 in any subject must be given an intervention through remediation and must pass remedial classes for promotion to the next grade level. Schools may also require students to attend make-up classes during the SY 2021-2022 as an alternative.
The Summer 2021 remedial, advancement, and enrichment classes is scheduled from July 19, 2021 to August 21, 2021.
Remedial and advancement classes must be completed within a six-week period that may include Saturdays. Schools may also opt to shorten the conduct of remedial and advancement classes when the essential learning competencies have already been attained,
Secretary Leonor Magtolis Briones said.
DepEd also strictly noted that schools are required to use distance learning modalities according to the learner’s context and face-to-face classes are not allowed to ensure the protection of students, teachers and stakeholders.
Modular learning in print or digital format shall be adopted using Self-Learning Modules (SLMs) or Alternative Delivery Mode (ADM) self-instructional modules on competencies in subject areas in which the learner failed.
Teachers may conduct advance or remedial classes remotely with the help of the resources stored in the DepEd Commons and DepEd Learning Resources Management and Development System (LRMDS). This is crucial to help our learners cope up and develop their skills according to Most Essential Learning Competencies (MELC) in their grade level,
Undersecretary for Curriculum and Instruction Diosdado San Antonio said.
SHS learners who choose to pursue their work immersion before SY 2021-2022 can be offered with advancement classes by Senior High Schools (SHS). Otherwise, advanced subjects before the start of school year may also be taken by SHS learners in order to focus on their work immersion in the succeeding semester.
The agency also reminded schools planning to offer remedial or advancement classes during summer must submit a letter of request and will decide on the specific details of classes subject to the approval of their respective SDO.
