00:00In the classrooms this school year, there is a class in Quezon City that the students who will enroll for grade 11 will not receive first.
00:09They will also have blended learning.
00:12This is what Vell Custodio reported.
00:14Even though it rained that day, the students entered Batasan Hills National High School early for the opening of the school year 2024-2025.
00:25At 6 in the morning, the students already flagged the ceremony and the regular classes started right away.
00:32The simulation and dry run of the students was already done for the return to school two weeks ago.
00:39Batasan Hills National High School has the highest number of enrollees in Quezon City.
00:44More than 15,800 enrollees are currently enrolled and it is expected to increase until August.
00:52But this is lower compared to more than 17,000 in the past year.
00:56The head of the school explained that the students who will enroll for grade 11 will not receive first.
01:03Temporarily, we will not enroll for grade 11 because there are a lot of public schools nearby that do not have enrollees for senior high.
01:12So we referred all of our students for grade 11.
01:15One of the reasons is congestion.
01:17So we decided to expand the school first because there are a lot of enrollees in Batasan.
01:25Another strategy of the school is to make a blended mode of learning where the students are on-site for three days and online for two days.
01:35The students still have two shifts.
01:38If we talk about the number of teachers, the number of teachers is very high because more than 600 teaching personnels are teaching in Batasan Hills National High School.
01:48The head of the school also has a plan if there is a suspension of the class this rainy season.
01:54There are default lessons being prepared so that when the face-to-face class is suspended, the teachers will immediately decide what to do with the students.
02:04The Saturday classes are also being prepared if there is a consent from the parents.
02:09The No Read, No Pass program is also being prepared for the students who will enroll for grade 7.
02:16This program will be implemented in the elementary school to help the students who will enroll for grade 7.
02:25According to this, ACT Teachers Partylist Representative Franz Castro is concerned.
02:30This is the next low-ranking Filipino in the Program for International Student Assessment or PISA Test in 2022.
02:37If we want to get a quality education, blended learning should not be normal.
02:46The class size should be reduced to a maximum of 35 students per class.
02:51The teachers should not overwork.
02:54The eight loads per day of our teachers should be too much.
02:59Rep. Castro also challenged the newly appointed Department of Education Secretary, Sunny Angara.
03:04Anyway, this is the new leadership.
03:07This is not the way to go for us to have a quality education.
03:13That's why we said to overhaul the K-12 program.
03:17The most essential learning competencies should be taught.
03:23I hope Secretary Angara will see this.
03:2784 public elementary schools and 59 public high schools returned to school this Monday in QC.
03:3415 public schools will open in QC on August 1,
03:39because this evacuation center is still serving those affected by Hurricane Karina and Tsunami Habagat.
03:45While only four schools in Lungson were affected by flooding,
03:49the school year started on August 5.
03:52According to Quezon City Mayor Joy Belmonte,
03:54Saturday classes will be held in the aforementioned schools to fill the missing days.
04:00Meanwhile, this past Friday,
04:03orientation for parents and guardians should be held,
04:07but it was postponed due to the impact of Hurricane Karina.
04:10No announcement has been made as to the rescheduled date of the orientation.
