What Will Be The 'New Normal' In Ph Education Post Pandemic?

Even after the outbreak, the Philippines will reopen up to 120 schools for restricted face-to-face sessions as part of a trial programme approved by President Rodrigo Duterte, millions of Filipino pupils would likely not have the same learning environment.



Education Assistant Secretary Malcolm Garma stated in a Rappler Talk interview on Thursday, October 21, that the "new normal" in education will not be a "purely classroom setting."

"What I see as the new normal is a hybrid of school-based and home-based learning. The new normal in education will not be a simply classroom configuration (the new normal in education will not be a merely classroom setup) "he stated

Students had to stay at home for two epidemic school openings while continuing their education through the remote learning system, which has been highly criticised owing to its poor execution.
