Gov't allows dry run of limited face-to-face classesUnder the guidelines, only students from Kindergarten to Grade 3 learners and SHS will participate in the dry run.Education officials earlier explained that those in the early grades found it difficult to learn by themselves, thus their inclusion in the pilot study.Pediatricians and health experts also noted that children only experience mild COVID-19 symptoms and rarely get hospitalized when they contract the illness.Participating SHS students are those who are required to attend 'workshops and laboratories,' according to the key guidelines.It is preferred that participating learners live near the school to avoid taking public transportation.Participating learners must not have comorbidities and will be 'prioritized based on the greatest need' for in-person instruction, according to the guidelines.The schools must also coordinate with their respective LGUs or private pediatricians to complete students' 'routine infant vaccines.'Meanwhile, participating school personnel, aged 65 and below, must not have comorbidities and be fully vaccinated against COVID-19.The guidelines also stated that class sizes would be reduced from the usual:- A maximum of 12 learners for kindergarten- A maximum of 16 learners for Grades 1 to 3- A maximum of 20 learners for SHS in a classroom- A maximum of 12 learners for SHS in a technical-vocational-livelihood workshop/science laboratoryStudents can only spend a maximum of 4.5 hours in schools, except for kindergarten learners who are only allowed up to 3 hours.The face-to-face classes will complement distance learning modalities, with classroom sessions set to be held every other week.Group work involving close contact and large gatherings will not be allowed, based on the guidelines.Classrooms have also been redesigned to ensure that physical distancing will be followed while schools will also put up visual cues in implementing health protocols.Participating schools must also set up proper sanitation and hygiene facilities, and provide face masks to learners and school personnel.Schools must ensure proper ventilation of classrooms, and conduct temperature checks before entering campuses and daily rapid health checks.The schools must also set up clinics in case of health emergencies.Health Undersecretary Maria Rosario Vergeire said it was not recommended for participating students and school personnel to undergo regular COVID-19 testing.'What we're going to do would be to based on the risk-based protocols of the Department of Health,' Vergeire said.'Whenever there would be those children or even teachers and non-teaching personnel having symptoms, that's the time that we'll do isolation and we'll do testing.'Vergeire added that the DOH and DepEd are crafting separate guidelines for contingency plans in case a student of school personnel tests positive for COVID-19.Participating schools are also tasked to set up a 'COVID-19 local hotline or help desk' to coordinate with LGUs and hospitals.The DepEd has yet to say when it will release the final list of participating schools or when the classroom sessions will start.Education Undersecretary Nepomuceno Malaluan said there would also be a 'period of orientation' once the participating schools are identified.The DepEd has also reserved a budget for schools that will participate in the pilot study, said Undersecretary Annalyn Sevilla.The pilot study will run for 2 months, after which the government will assess if more schools can hold limited in-person classes.

During this time, they are given the chance to study more and complete their masteral or even their doctorate degree.In addition to that, Ponciano said the DepEd has already given permission to college professors who are qualified to apply as teachers for senior high school.This is fact is further supported by the fact that some universities and colleges have already set up their own senior high school in order to tap into the resources they already have in their possession.Incoming grade 11 students will begin their senior highschool in the next month. But Ponciano assured that it will all be taken care of by the DepEd in collaboration with the Commission of Higher Education (CHED).One solution given by the director is that college professors are given a sabbatical leave until there is an influx of enrollees.
