THE DEPARTMENT of Education is ready for the early registration of students in public primary and secondary school for School Year 2022-2023.

The registration will start on March 25 and will end on April 30, 2022.

DepEd Assistant Secretary Malcom Garma said they expect 100 percent enrollment for the incoming school year.

“Pero ‘yung 100% enrollment na ‘yan puwedeng sila ay nandoon sa home-based learning or ‘yung iba naman ay uma-attend na ng limited face-to-face classes natin. So, hindi naman babawasan ‘yan,” Garma said.

He expressed hope that participants in the DepEd’s Alternative Learning System  will grow following a slump because of the pandemic.

Garma said that distance learning will still be implemented despite the resumption of face-to-face classes.

“Dahil hindi pa natin kaya na talagang makabalik tayo ng 100% sa dating face-to-face natin. So, tuloy-tuloy pa rin ang distance learning or home-based learning natin,” the official explained.

DepEd earlier reported that at least 10,196 schools have resumed face-to-face classes. Of these, 9,994 are public schools and 212 private schools.
