Background
With the technical guidance from the Department of Health (DOH)
and other child health expert organizations, the Department
of Education (DepEd) formulated the operational guidelines on
the pilot implementation of face-to-face learning modality in
preparation for the eventual school reopening. The guidelines aim
to ensure that students, school staff, their families, and surrounding
communities are afforded the maximum amount of protection
against COVID-19.
The pilot implementation of face-to-face classes will provide
essential insights on the expansion of reopening of schools, hence,
the coordination of the Central O ffice and schools is critical in this
undertaking.
Objectives
This communications plan aims to:
• Guide key communicators of the pilot face-to-face classes
in developing and crafting messages and interventions to
concerned stakeholders; and
• Provide documentation and media management protocols for
the pilot run of face-to-face classes; and
• Establish field coordination and crisis m anag e m e nt protocol
for possible scenarios for the duration of the pilot face-to-face
classes.
