The Philippine academic calendar, internationalization, and climate change
from Teka Teka
President Bongbong Marcos has approved the move to revert the school calendar of high schools and elementary schools back to the old June to March calendar. Colleges and universities, however, still remain in the August to May academic year – which was made to align with international universities and in light of ASEAN Integration in 2015. But with climate change and extreme heat waves during the summer months, the education sector might need to rethink the academic calendar. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
