“To support students in making the most of the current distance learning modality, my Office has undertaken the establishment of Community Learning Hubs. Issues about supposedly limited in-face tutorials in OVP’s learning hubs in Pasig City were raised in a briefing on Tuesday, where Briones distanced from the project. Robredo’s spokesperson Barry Gutierrez then insisted that the community learning hubs were coordinated with DepEd, even claiming that the department considered it a good initiative. ADVERTISEMENT“The Community Learning Hubs initiative was coordinated with the Department of Education, at both the national and local levels, every step of the way. There is also proper coordination not just with local DepEd Divisions but also local government units to ensure a safe and effective learning environment,” he added.
