IPINAG-UTOS ni Davao City Mayor Sara Duterte ang pag-check ng mga guro sa mga estudyante sa kanilang tahanan upang masiguro na pumapasok ang mga ito sa klase at gumagawa ng modules.

Sa Section 15 ng Executive Order no. 57 Series of 2020 epektibo noong Oktubre 27, nakasaad na kailangang bisitahin ng mga guro ang mga estudyante upang masiguro ang kanilang pagpasok sa klase.

“All Department of Education schools class advisers must have a regular schedule of compliance checks of students and their performance tasks according to their modules. Checking must be unannounced and conducted at random times from Monday to Friday within the hours of 7AM to 4PM,” ayon sa EO 57.

Samantala, babawasan naman ang grade ng mga mag-aaral na wala sa kanilang mga tahanan.

“All students found to be missing inside their residences or not within three meters of their residences during school hours shall receive an equivalent grade reduction in their subjects,” nakasaad pa sa EO.

Obligado rin ang mga barangay na ilista ang pangalan ng mga estudyante na makikitang nasa mahigit tatlong metrong layo sa kanilang tahanan.

“All barangay tanods are required to take note of the date, time and names of all students who are more than three + meters away from residences from Monday to Friday within the hours of 7AM to 4PM and submit the list to the school principal/head for the requisite grade reduction,” dagdag pa nito.

Nauna nang naglabas si Department of Education Region XI Assistant Regional Director Evelyn Fetalvero ng memorandum para sa pagsasagawa ng random checking sa mga estudyante upang masiguro ang kanilang pag-aaral.

Sa  panayam ng The POST, sinabi nito na suportado ng rehiyon ang EO 57. “Mayor Sara issued this EO  in the context of Davao City. But there are other 10 school divisions in Davao Region. If this problem is not true to the other 10, then the mechanism of monitoring of students learning at home may not be that intensive. We encourage  occasional home visits to learners by their teachers observing the prescribed minimum health protocols by the local IATF and our DepEd policies,” dagdag pa niya.
