CHED Chairman Prospero de Vera III says the agency is eyeing to include engineering, IT, and maritime students in the implementation of limited face-to-face classes.

[Translation: Generally, based on the data we gathered so far, there is a small percentage of schools which tallied COVID-19 cases. While we continue to add our data, I'm convinced that it is safe to hold face-to-face classes and it may expand to other degree programs.]

The National Economic and Development Authority also suggested a pilot run of limited face-to-face classes among students by August. "Eventually, less restrictions will allow mobility of children and elderly, resumption of physical classes which we can possibly pilot test by August, and stimulate more economic activities," NEDA Undersecretary Mercedita Sombilla said in a virtual briefing.
