FACE TO FACE CLASSES COMMUNICATION PLAN
Background
Communication plan used during the pilot implementation of the face-to-

face classes in several schools all over the country is used as basis and guide. It
was with the technical guidance from the Department of Health (DOH)and other
child health expert organizations, that 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 learners, 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 provided
essential insights on the expansion of reopening of schools, hence, the
coordination of the Central Office and schools is critical in this undertaking. This
led Guiguinto Central School Composite Team in anchoring the
contextualized communication plan for the Implementation of the face-to-face
classes in the school.
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 management protocol for possible
scenarios for the duration of the pilot face-to-face classes.
Key Messages
Bayanihan para sa Ligtas na Balik-Eskwela. Anchored on the

shared responsibility framework, the Department of Education is
gradually reintroducing face-to-face classes with stringent measures and
protocols in place and with the help of various education stakeholders.
a) Consultative. Recognizing the critical role of face-to-face

interaction in basic education to a child’s development, the
Department of Education consulted the Department of Health and
medical and pediatric experts in developing the guidelines for the
gradual reintroduction of physical classes amidst the pandemic.

b) Collaborative. The implementation of face-to-face classes will be
a collaboration of DepEd, DOH, local government units, teachers
and non-teaching staff, parents, learners as well as the community.
c) Community-Based. With utmost priority given to the protection of

health and safety of everyone involved, the implementation will only
take place in low-risk areas and be participated only by schools and
individuals that passed certain requirements.
STAKEHOLDERS MAPPING
As long as the threat of COVID-19 exists, education stakeholders face

frightening challenges in the reintroduction of physical classes.
Communication will play a big role in establishing interventions to address
issues that may hamper the pilot implementation and its eventual expansion.

These state m ents will serve as m e ssag ing g uide s for official
spo ke s per so ns of the s c h o o l in answ e r ing queries regarding the
implementation of the face-to-face classes.
Spokespersons are allowed to contextualize these statements and
cite other relevant information in the context of the school.
We are following our school’s implementation and contingency plan

aligned with the operational framework components of safe operations, teaching
and learning, including the most marginalized, and well-being and protection. We
have b e e n c o o rd inating w i th our LGU officials and local partners in
terms of our respective roles and responsibilities for a safe return to schools.
Our school has an allocated budget to ensure the safe return of our
teachers and learners in the classrooms. We have partnered with Local Government
Unit to support us in the provision of additional protective and sanitation materials
for our school.
In adherence to our guidelines and in support of the safe return to schools,

our teachers and school personnel who will be participating in the pilot run are
vaccinated. Our teachers and non-teaching personnel are all vaccinated for COVID-
19 that can prevent further transmission. We identify learners involved in the face-
to-face classes according to their health status, location, parent’s consent and
participation and class performance.
We have been actively coordinating and monitoring w i th the s c ho o l

leaders, LGU, IATF, and DOH on the risk assessment status of our schools. If
there are problems, such as an increase or surge in COVID-19 cases before the start
of the implementation of the face-to-face classes, the school has already designed
the contingency plan.
