With the recommendation of the inter-agency task force (IATF), Spokesperson Harry Roque said the government has allowed and authorized the Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) to operate in a skeletal workforce.
This means that colleges and universities in areas under the General Community Quarantine may reopen on May 4, 2020, with limited operations.
According to Roque, this decision is made “only for purposes of finishing the Academic Year 2019-2020, issuing credentials to students, and preparing for flexible learning arrangements for the next academic year.”
On the other hand, the Department of Education (DepEd) is yet to finalize the schedule of the opening of classes for the school year 2020-2021 in all Elementary and Secondary schools in the country.
The recommendation of IATF to open the classes in September is not yet final. DepEd is will present their recommendations on the first week of May and hopefully will come up to the final schedule.
