In-person classes in HEIs now allowed under Alert Level 2: Palace

By Prince Golez

Limited face-to-face classes in colleges will be allowed in areas under Alert Level 2, Malacañang announced Friday.

In his virtual presser, Presidential Spokesperson Harry Roque confirmed that in-person classes in higher education institutions (HEIs) may be conducted at a maximum of 50 percent of venue capacity.

“Ayon sa CHED, pinapayagan ang limited face-to-face classes sa Alert Level 2, subject to CHED guidelines,” according to Roque.

These guidelines are as follows:

-fully vaccinated faculty and students

-a maximum of 50 percent room capacity

-concurrence/support from local government units (LGUs) concerned; and

-retrofitting of facilities to be used for limited face-to-face classes as inspected and authorized by CHED.

“Pupuwede pong magkaroon ng limited face-to-face pero hindi po yan instant. Hindi po magkakaroon ng face-to-face sa Lunes. Kinakailangan pumayag muna ang mga LGUs at mag retrofit muna ng classrooms,” the secretary said.

Metro Manila will be under a more relaxed Alert Level 2 quarantine classification until November 21.
