SCHOOLS  participating in the pilot run of limited face-to-face classes are 90 percent ready, an official of the Department of Education said.

Education Assistant Secretary Malcolm Garma said that the selected schools underwent strict assessment and evaluation.

“Almost all participating schools are ready for the pilot study on November 15, 2021. On the average, most of them are basically on a 90 percent above preparation,” Garma said.

The official noted that four of the 100 public schools earlier identified withdrew their participation for various reasons.

These schools were replaced.

Limited physical classes will be carried out in 100 public and 20 private schools on November 15 and November 22, respectively.

The program will be conducted for two months and an expansion will depend on the result of the assessment.
