ANGARA: DEPED TV TO SUPPORT ACCESSIBLE LEARNING
DEPARTMENT of Education Secretary Sonny Angara announced that DepEd TV will be utilized to ensure accessible learning for students, particularly those displaced by calamities.
In partnership with the Knowledge Channel Foundation, Inc. and Solar Learning, DepEd will integrate curriculum-aligned programs into its broadcast instruction. This initiative ensures that learning continues in evacuation centers and disaster-affected communities while prioritizing learners’ safety and well-being.
“Ngayong taon, ipagpapatuloy natin ang ating mga pagsisikap na magkaroon ng mas maraming opsyon para maipagpatuloy ang edukasyon tuwing may kalamidad. Gagamitin natin ang DepEd TV upang mas maging accessible ang pagkatuto—lalo na sa mga lugar na madalas tatamaan ng bagyo,” Angara said.
DepEd TV can be accessed through Digital Free TV, Cable TV, and Direct-to-Home Satellite.
Digital Free TV signals are available in the National Capital Region, Bulacan, Rizal, Cavite, Laguna, Batangas, Bataan, Pampanga, Nueva Ecija, Baguio, Naga, Legazpi, Cebu, Iloilo, Davao, Cagayan de Oro, General Santos, and Zamboanga, airing on BEAM Channel 31 and SBN Channel 21.
DepEd TV is also available via SkyCable (Channel 3 in Metro Manila), Sky TV in various provinces, and PCTA Member Cable Operators nationwide. Additionally, it can be viewed on Cignal (Channel 146) and Satellite TV (Channel 182) under the Direct-to-Home Satellite platform.
