    The document discusses the COVID-19 situation in the Philippines and arguments for postponing the 2020 academic year. It notes that over 200,000 COVID cases have been recorded, forcing local governments to implement quarantines. This has negatively impacted various sectors of the economy and has made it difficult for many Filipinos to work and meet daily needs. While online classes have been proposed, many students do not have reliable internet access or devices needed for online learning. Postponing the academic year would help address financial barriers to education during the pandemic and reduce COVID transmission by preventing students from needing to access public computers or internet outside the home.

    Academic freeze for 2020

    On January 30 2020, the Department of Health reported the first case of COVID-19 in the Philippines,
    that's when the virus begin to spread. As of now, over 200,000 cases were recorded alarming the whole
    country. From region to region local government was forced to implement a community quarantine to
    minimize the possible transmission of Covid-19. Borders were strictly guarded by armed forces to avoid
    the possible transmission of virus from one place to another. Health sectors were raising red flags
    because of lack of funds that were in needs to fight over this pandemic. Government were alarmed
    because of the rapidly increase of Filipinos who was tested positive from Corona Virus sectors such as
    economy, industrial and agricultural were highly affected. Because of the implementation of community
    quarantine Filipinos were forced to stay indoors rather than working to solve for their daily living.
    Amidst of chaos that was happening DepEd and Ched still urges to open the classes for school year
    2020-2021. Online class have advantages and disadvantages. Avantage of online class is flexibility of
    schedule, documenting class work and other, having the comfort of your home, etc. Disadvantage of
    online class is, online class is not for everyone only those who have internet access and having a
    cellphone or laptop for it in other words those who have financial means

    Because of the threat of the virus face to face learning can no longer be possible method for teaching
    pupils and students for now. The Department of Education together with the Commission for Higher
    Education come up with the solution to teach the students or pupils with the help of technologies
    known as online learning. What would you think if you had to go to the computer shop every day just to
    attend your online classes, and every time you ask your parent money they have nothing to give you?
    That is why I think the government should post pone the classes in 2020. To give consideration for
    students that do not have money to keep up with the needs of education, and to lessen the burden we
    have in pandemic

    The Government should postpone the classes this year because many students do not have finances in
    terms of funds to keep up with the needs of an online class and students have to go out to computer
    shops. For example you were not born in a stable family, and now you are worrying how you can attend
    online class how can you buy your needs for online classes and you will be risking your self going out and
    getting exposed, the reason for this is that many student will stop this year because they can’t keep up
    and the number covid cases will rise up because people will go out getting exposed. This will help to
    reduce anxiety caused by the pandemic, also help decrease the covid case

    (My final take on this why I think the government should postpone the 2020 school year because many
    parents do not have jobs, the lost their jobs in the pandemic and now the parents is having a hard time
    thinking that they should skip this 2020 school year because they have no money, This is important
    because the student and the parent may suffer mental health problems from thinking that they have a
    problem in terms of money, if the government postponed this school year everyone will be less stressed
    ) Isasama kopaba ito?

    In conclusion i think the government is not giving consideration to all student’s, discriminating other
    students who do not have access to technology
