The Department of Education (DepEd) has released its official calendar and activities for school year 2021-2022.

The conduct of face-to-face classes, whether partial or full scale, will not be allowed unless permitted by the Office of the President,
DepEd said.
Additionally, classes for public schools will open on September 13 and end on June 24, 2022. The agency said that the school year will consist of 209 school days, inclusive of Saturdays and a five-day midyear break.
The DepEd also said the conduct of distance learning on Saturdays is authorized due to the compressed school year.
Should religious considerations prevent activities on Saturday, they may be conducted on a Sunday. Nonetheless, teachers will not be required to render service on Saturdays and Sundays,

They may begin classes not earlier than the first Monday of June and not later than September 13, 2021,
the order read.

To reflect their local events, Regional offices may issue supplemental calendars.
