 2nd SEMESTER

What does Work Immersion mean?

According to DepEd Order No. 40, series of 2015, Work Immersion refers
to the part of the Senior High School (SHS) Curriculum consisting of 80
hours of hands-on experience or work simulation which the Grades 11 and
12 students will undergo to expose them to the actual workplace setting and
to enrich the competencies provided by the school under the supervision of
the School Head and the designated personnel of the Partner.”
The Department of Education issued DepEd Order no. 30 s. 2017 entitled
Guidelines for Work Immersion which is the basis for the implementation
of Work Immersion in all Senior High Schools (SHSs). Let us get oriented
with the selected sections of DepEd Order no. 30 s. 2017. Read it
thoroughly.
Section 1: Rationale
One of the goals of the K to 12 Education Program is to develop in learners
the competencies, work ethics, and values relevant to pursuing further
education and/or joining the world of work. To achieve greater congruence
with the basic education and the nation’s development targets, Work
Immersion, a required subject, has been integrated in the curriculum.
This subject will provide learners with the following opportunities:
1. to become familiar with the workplace
2. for employment simulation
3. to apply their competencies in areas of specialization/applied subject’s in
authentic work environments

To achieve those objectives, Work Immersion is therefore a requirement for

graduation from secondary education. Learners are immersed on actual work
environments such as workshops, offices, and laboratories in which their
prior training is relevant. But this is given clarification on DepEd Order No.
39, s. 2018.

9
 2nd SEMESTER

Though the intention of Work Immersion is to provide SHS learners with

opportunities to become familiar with the workplace, simulate employment,
and to apply their competencies in areas of specialization/applied subjects in
actual work environments, DepEd recognizes other options that may equally
prepare learners for all curriculum exits.
✓ For all tracks, schools may opt to devise unique delivery model with a
minimum of 80 and a maximum of 320 hours following the Curriculum
Guide.
✓ All TVL learners shall have completed the required learning
competencies of a particular specialization before Work Immersion.
✓ The nominal duration of specialization for TVL shall be considered in
crafting the delivery model of the school.

Technological Vocational Livelihood [TVL] Strand

• This is what our BCSHS-SAC is now offering

[HE] HOME ECONOMICS

[IA] INDUSTRIAL ARTS

[ICT] INFORMATION COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY

10
 2nd SEMESTER

For other tracks:

▪ Accounting, Business and Management (ABM) learners may have
Business Enterprise Simulation
▪ Humanities and Social Science Strand (HUMSS) learners may take
Culminating Activity.
▪ Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) learners
may take Research/Capstone Project
▪ General Academic Strand (GAS) learners may take Research/Capstone
Project or Culminating Activity
▪ For Sports Track, learners may take Apprenticeship (off – campus)
▪ For Arts and Design Track, learners may take Performing Arts for
Production or Exhibit for Arts Production

However, due to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, the learners’

physical attendance in school is prohibited. Consequently, the
implementation of Work Immersion given above is greatly affected. Hence,
the Office of Undersecretary set another guideline stipulated in
Memorandum DM-CI-2020-00085 specifically for this school year 2020-
2021. Varying suggested activities for all tracks guided by Most Essential
Competencies (MELCs) are provided.

The activities in all tracks can be performed in different schemes which

include in-school, home-based, community-based, and school
industry partnership.
Whatever scheme is used, all lessons and activities of Work Immersion or its
equivalent shall be delivered using different modalities applicable to the
specific track, strand, learners, and schools.
Our school will adopt the Home-based and school Industry Partnership.
To get more oriented with these schemes, your Work Immersion
Teacher together with the Focal Person, and Principal will meet you
together with your parent via online platform. Your Work Immersion
Teacher or your previous adviser will send you a message and link
11
 2nd SEMESTER

for an online orientation. This will be done on the 2nd week of second
semester.
What will be the topic they will discuss? Yes! They will explain how
you will go about your Work Immersion using the above-mentioned
schemes. They will do the following:
1. Walkthrough of the Parts of the entire Work Immersion

2. Explanation of contextualized activity and scheme relevant to

your track & strand (to be taken from the new issued Memorandum
in response to the crisis)

3. Assessment

4. Other important matters/reminders regarding your Work

Immersion

5. Open Forum where you and your parents can ask questions
directly to the teachers or even to the principal.

6. Parents will be signing Immersion Parent’s Consent Form /waivers

for all requirements and activities that their child must submit to
pass this new normal operation of the work immersion program.

To prepare for this online orientation, you can already download those apps
for online meeting. When the message and link are given to you, you will
just click it to open and join the meeting. Just remember to make your
environment silent because every noise is heard by everyone in the meeting,
so you need to turn off the microphone to avoid destruction to the speaker.
Wait for further instructions.

For now, let us continue with our module.

The Department of Education and Biñan City Senior High School – San Antonio Campus is
committed and aims to provide its Senior High School students an exposure and
familiarization to a work-related environment related to their field of specialization for them
to enhance their learning competence. The Work Immersion subject is a partial realization of
this commitment.

The Senior High School through the Work Immersion Focal Person/Coordinator acting as the
teacher-in-charge will perform “due diligence of a good father of a family” in supervising our
Work Immersion students. The school, however, in this time of Pandemic must follow the
DepEd Order No. 30, s. 2017, DepEd No. 39, s. 2018 and the latest Guidelines for Work
Immersion Implementation during this time of crisis found in Memorandum DM-CI-2020-

responsible for any untoward incident, God forbids, which is due to negligence or any
deliberate act on the part of the student or third party, present the teacher’s observance of
due diligence. This is for those students who choose to work on their field of specialization
under the time of pandemic. While for the students enrolled and be part of the home-based
Work immersion Program must give their best to participate and follow the school protocol
regarding the immersion program must fulfill their responsibility to finish 80 hours schedule
and submit their portfolio on the respective date given by their Work Immersion Teacher
before end of the 2nd semester, for the student to pass the Work Immersion subject.

The Work Immersion Coordinator and teachers shall observe due diligence but, at the same
time, shall expect the same observance and responsibility of the student to avoid any
untoward incident.

In conformity to this shared responsibility, the parent-guardian, and Work Immersion
