MANILA -- The Department of Education (Dep Ed) on Wednesday expressed support to the 'no-homework policy' proposed by lawmakers from the House of Representatives.
In a statement, the Dep Ed said the policy enables learners to find balance between their academic development and personal growth by having ample time for enjoyable activities with family provided that all assignments and projects are completed in school.
Deputy Speaker and Sorsogon Representative Evelina Escudero has filed House Bill 3611 which obliges teachers not to give take-home assignments to students from kindergarten to Grade 12 to lighten their physical burden when carrying heavy bags to-and-from schools.
The bill also seeks to compel schools and teachers to implement a "more holistic and effective pedagogy" by conducting all lessons and activities in school. 392, series 2010 or the Guidelines on Giving Homework or Assignment to All Public Elementary School Pupils, the Dep Ed reiterates its commitment to the holistic development of learners inside and outside the classroom.
