Potential learning spaces in the community near the school may be explored to add spaces for the conduct of classes and may disregard social distancing.

In this approach, only core and specialized subjects shall be taught in school. Applied subjects shall be using the home-based, life skill, modular approach.

In this scheme, there would be two teachers inside the class per learning area. The number of learners they would handle should be the total number of learners they handled in the normal days. Learners have to go through series of individual activities after teaching the learning competencies to be facilitated, monitored by the two teachers.

In this approach, only English, Science and Mathematics shall be taught in school. Other learning areas shall be using the modular, home-based approach.

In the shifting of classes, teaching is directly focused on concepts with corresponding activities. Supplemental activities and Assessments shall be done, brought by the learners when shifted at home.

This refers to a learning delivery modality where learning takes place between the teacher and the learners who are geographically remote from each other during instruction.

Learning is in the form of individualized instruction that allows learners to use self-learning modules (SLMs) in print or digital format/electronic copy, whichever is applicable in the context of the learner and other learning resources like Learner’s Materials, textbooks, activity sheets, study guides and other study materials.

It features the teacher facilitating learning and engaging learners’ active participation using various technologies accessed through the internet while they are geographically remote from each other during instruction.

This refers to a learning modality that allows for a combination of face to face and online distance learning (ODL), face-to-face and modular distance learning (MDL), face-to-face and TV/Radio-based Instruction (RBI), and face-to-face learning and a combination with two or more types of distance learning.

This refers to a learning delivery modality where the students and the teacher are both physically present in the classroom, and there are opportunities for active engagement, immediate feedback, and socio-emotional development of learners.

It is an alternative delivery mode (ADM) that aims to provide learners with equal access to quality basic education through a home-based environment to be facilitated by qualified parents, guardians or tutors who have undergone relevant training.

It is a tried and tested alternative modality of education delivery within the confines of the formal system that allow schools to deliver quality education to marginalized students and those at risk of dropping out in order to help them overcome personal, social and economic constraints in their schooling.

The shifting of classes depends on how many days the competencies could be covered based on the competency codes and the number of competencies to be covered in all learning areas.

To avoid confusion in the part of the students and their parents, the learning delivery modality that a school can adopt should only be one, depending on the COVID-19 restrictions and the particular context of the learners in the school or locality.
