An official of the Department of Education said yesterday that a big percentage of schools nationwide are now ready for the opening of classes on June 4.

“Around 86 percent of the schools nationwide are ready and barely two percent needs support with regards to the opening of classes as since last year we have been monitoring the classroom and school readiness,” DepEd Undersecretary Jesus Mateo told a press briefing.

Mateo said that there are six variables which are used in school readiness assessment – teachers, classrooms, toilets, seats, water supply and electrical supply.

“When you say ‘ready’ it means the school is okay with almost all the variables, the ‘nearly ready’ they have 100 percent score in four out of the six variables, the needed support these are the schools which have met less than four variables and these are the ones we’re focusing on,” he said.

While reduced student-teacher ratio can now be observed in most schools, Mateo said there are still some areas where it would remain a problem.

“Reducing the class size, I’m happy to report that our ratio is 1:31 in elementary while in secondary is 1:26, but it’s true there are some schools with 1:50 ratio but these are in the heavily populated places where schools can’t longer be built,” he said. (PNA)
