Abstract:
This study examined the readiness in the implementation of distance learning system and its alignment with the
Basic Education Learning Continuity Plan in Jomalig District as basis for a strategic plan. Specifically, it sought
to identify the level of readiness in implementation of distance learning system in Jomalig District in terms of
required health standards, contextualizing of learning strategies and modalities, Brigada Eskwela and Oplan
Balik Eskwela, legal context, finance, communication and monitoring and evaluation to the Basic Education
Learning Continuity Plan. The study used descriptive survey method of research. The respondents were the
seven (7) school heads of Jomalig District. The data were collected using self-made survey questionnaire and
were statistically treated, analyzed and interpreted using frequency count, percentage, weighted mean, and
ANOVA.Results revealed that the schools in Jomalig District are highly ready for the implementation of
distance learning in Jomalig District aligned with the Basic Education Learning Continuity Plan. In terms of
required health standards, the teachers and school community members are consistently oriented and informed
about the health protocols. In terms of contextualizing learning strategis and modalities, learning resources used
by the learners are aligned with distance learning to achieve the set learning competencies and standards. In
terms of Brigada Eskwela and Oplan Balik Eskwela, they have updated school emergency and contingency plans
in relation to school safety and preparedness as provided for under DepEd Memo No. 32, s. 2020. In terms of
legal context and finance, the school Improvement Plan and Annual Implementation Plan were revisited and
adjusted to align with distance learning and BE-LCP. In terms of communication, they encourage parents
through the Parents-Teachers Associations (PTA) towards possible collaborations with the schools that can
support the delivery of learning while adapting to the “new normal”. In terms of monitoring and evaluation,
parents are actively involved in monitoring their children’s performance.
