DEPED CLARIFIES: NO SATURDAY CLASSES

/ 3 July 2025

THE DEPARTMENT of Education has debunked a circulating social media post claiming that Saturday classes will be implemented for students from Elementary to Senior High School.

DepEd labeled the post as “fake news” and confirmed that no such policy exists.

The misleading post, which made the rounds online, falsely stated that all basic education students would be required to attend Saturday classes. It even used DepEd’s official logos and branding to appear legitimate.

DepEd urged the public to remain vigilant and practice critical thinking when encountering such claims.

The agency also stressed the importance of relying only on official DepEd Philippines channels for accurate information and policy updates. –
