emergency associated with COVID-19. In line with the proposed pilot implementation of limited face-to-face
classes in minimal risk areas, this Contingency Plan aims to capacitate schools on the processes to
manage situations in which a suspected or confirmed COVID-19 case or close contact with the
aforementioned cases are detected within and/or outside school premises.

107515

V. Response and Early Recovery Measures of the School
During a school lockdown, it is important to continue engaging learners in meaningful

activities to ensure the continuity of learning. However, some learners or school personnel may
need additional support in transitioning back to distance learning and managing their emotions
after learning about the situation in the school or in the community. During this period, the support
from the family and other school personnel shall play a critical role in adapting to the change in
environment and coping with the resurgence of COVID-19 cases.
1. The school local hotline/help desk shall remain open for parents/guardians in need of assistance in
the distance learning of their child/ren. Teachers may utilize this platform to encourage parents/
guardians in their role as learning facilitators at home and to provide additional support to learners
in their independent study.
2. The school shall establish a cleaning and maintenance routine to ensure that all school facilities are
organized and functional until the resumption of face-to-face classes.

VI. Preparedness Measures of the School
The school does its very best to ensure the preparation, awareness and readiness of the
organization against this global issue. The top leaders exhaust all efforts to safeguard every employee of
the school. The standard health protocols are meticulously being followed and provision for health supplies
were prioritized and even partners were tapped to guarantee that the support from them will be available
for the school office. The data table are the evidences of measures and continually delivering it to our
clients.
The operational framework for the resumption of face-to-face classes, as shown in Figure 1, was
adopted from the UNESCO – UNICEF – World Bank Framework for Reopening Schools and DepEd
Shared responsibility principle.
The framework has four major pillars, namely; (a) Safe Operations, (b) Teaching and Learning, (c)
Including the Most Marginalized, and (d) Well-being and Protection. Cutting across all the pillars are the
policy and finance support to ensure operational mechanisms are in place. Central to this is the Shared
Responsibility principle. The framework will effectively engage the entire society in making sure that
learners are safe and healthy while attending face-to-face classes. Specifically, the framework puts the
learner’s health and safety at the heart of the implementation, allowing them to learn better.
1. The framework is centered on the following common elements: (a) Health and safety of learners,
(b) Learning opportunities, (c) School operations, and (d) Engagement of the entire society.
