The Province of Bulacan has been under the Modified General Community Quarantine (MGCQ) status since October 2020. Based on the guidelines of Inter-Agency Task Force (IATF), areas under MGCQ may conduct limited face-to-face learning in Higher Education Institution as long as the IATF guidelines will be strictly implemented. Furthermore, no other than the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) Chair, Prospero De Vera in an interview conducted last December 1 suggested that HEI’s could have an option to conduct limited face-to-face classes under certain restrictions and guidelines. Moreover, the Joint Circular Memorandum No. 01-2021 is highly considered in the implementation of the guidelines.

Committed to continuing her goal of providing quality education, the Bulacan State University intends to look into possibilities of conducting limited F2FL. Along this line, the Educational Development Office (EDO) of the Office of the Vice President for Academic Affairs drafted the Proposed Guidelines on the Implementation of Limited Face-to-Face Learning limited (F2FL) at Bulacan State University.

The guidelines will be implemented only to the approved laboratory courses that need to have limited F2FL. Flexible Learning Modalities (FLM) implemented by the University in the previous semesters will still be followed giving provision to the implementation of proposed guidelines on the Limited F2FL. Limited F2FL is not mandatory, the personal decision of the parents/guardians in permitting their sons/daughters to attend limited F2FL for laboratory classes is honored.

Please see the attached guidelines:
