Responsibility of Parents or Guardians
The DepEd still maintains that parents or guardians are responsible for determining whether their children should attend classes considering their physical and/or mental health during disasters and calamities. This applies even if no order for cancellation or suspension of classes has been issued.
However, it is also the responsibility of the parents or guardians to ensure that their child can catch up with the needed competencies that the learners should master.

*Suspension of classes for the tertiary level (colleges and universities) will be at the discretion of school management.
