The Department of Education (DepEd ) on Monday launched this year’s edition of Oplan Balik Eskwela (OBE) to ensure smooth school opening of classes on June 3, for the school year (SY) 2019-2020.
The OBE Inter-Agency Task Force (IATF) consisting of the Departments of Energy (DOE); Interior and Local Government (DILG); Health (DOH); National Defense (DND); Public Works and Highways (DPWH); Social Welfare and Development (DSWD); Trade and Industry (DTI); Transportation (DOTr); Manila Electric Co. (Meralco); Metropolitan Waterworks and Sewerage System (MWSS); Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA); Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa); and the Philippine National Police (PNP).
“The concept of this [OBE] is that education is not only the responsibility of the Department of Education. All of our government agencies, including the private sector, are helping each other in preparation for the school opening,” Education Secretary Leonor M. Briones said.
Briones noted that as cochairman of the 2019 OBE, Undersecretary for Planning, Human Resource and Organizational Development, and Field Operations Jesus Mateo, and Assistant Secretary for Public Affairs Service and Alternative Learning System Program and Task Force G. H. Ambat expressed their gratitude to the representatives of the IATF who presented their respective preparations for the school opening.
The PNP’s Ligtas Balik Eskwela shall deploy approximately 6,000 personnel in the National Capital Region (NCR) alone, and 150,000 personnel nationwide to prevent and suppress the occurrence of criminal and terroristic incidents targeting the general public, including students, teachers and parents.
The DTI, meanwhile, is conducting a series of OBE Diskwento Caravan through its Consumer Protection and Advocacy Bureau. It also published the Gabay sa Presyo ng School Supplies as it intensifies its weekly price monitoring activities from May to June.
Pagasa delivered rainy day safety reminders and discussed the protocols on warning services, while DPWH shared the maintenance activities of its district engineering offices inside and within the vicinities of the schools including the repainting of pedestrian markings and declogging of drainages.
Maynilad Water Services Inc. assured the public that there will be no pipe-laying/repair activities near schools on school opening and that ongoing excavations near schools shall be safe/passable to motorists and pedestrians. They also presented their Lingkod Eskwela Program, which gives public-school students access to potable water through the drink-wash facilities they installed.
The MMDA’s Balik Eskwela Program this year shall focus on increasing awareness on smoke-free campuses and protecting the youth from the dangers of smoking, while the DILG directed its local chief executives to support the OBE activities.
Meralco, on the other hand, shared their various activities, including the assessment of schools’ electrical connections and trimming of tree branches along electrical facilities. The DOE, meanwhile, discussed the power situation/outlook in Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao, as well as its coordination efforts with power-generation companies and other relevant institutions.
Finally, the DSWD assured the public on the on-time payout of Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program (4Ps) cash grants.
Public Assistance Command Center
The Public Assistance Command Center (PACC), stationed at the Bulwagan ng Karunungan at DepEd, shall be operational from May 27 to June 7 to address the problems, queries, and other concerns commonly encountered by public at the start of the school year, and to ensure that all learners are properly enrolled and able to attend school on the first day of classes on June 3.
The PACC shall also serve as the information and complaints processing and routing zone for the duration of the OBE. Regional and schools division offices are also enjoined to set up a command center to receive and respond to concerns directly from the ground.
The following channels shall be open to the public through the PACC: hot lines 636-1663; 635-9817; 638-7530; 633-1942; 638-8641; 638-7529; and 634-0222 (fax); e-mail (action@deped.gov.ph); text messaging (09194560027); social media (Department of Education–Philippines on Facebook and DepEd_PH on Twitter); walk-in assistance; and legal assistance, if applicable.
