Policy Guidelines on the Implementation of the National Learning Camp

In line with the MATATAG: Bansang Makabata, Batang Makabansa agenda, the Department of Education (DepEd) adopts the enclosed Policy Guidelines on the Implementation of the National Learning Camp (NLC).

This policy contributes to the commitment of DepEd to the National Learning Recovery Program (NLRP), which aims to close learning gaps and assist K to 12 learners in all public elementary and secondary schools nationwide in attaining learning standards.

This policy outlines the guidelines for implementing the NLC, a voluntary learning recovery program The NLC shall be offered every end-of-school-year (EOSY) break to complement learning efforts in the previous school year and provide a firmer basis for further gains in the upcoming school year.

 

Based on the specific needs of the learners, they shall be enrolled in one of three Camps: Enhancement Camp, Consolidation Camp, or Intervention Camp. The Enhancement Camp enriches learning for advanced learners by providing greater depth, breadth, and complexity of learning area competencies while the Consolidation Camp provides further practice on and application of previously taught competencies. Opportunities are provided to identify links connecting concepts and skills across grade-level competencies. The Intervention Camp, on the other hand, supports learners who are yet to grasp Foundational Mathematics and/or Foundational English skills.

Recognizing the critical role of teachers in improving learning outcomes, the NLC has a two-fold purpose: improving learner performance and strengthening teacher capacity.

DepEd Order (DO) No. 13, s. 2018 (Implementing Guidelines on the Conduct of Remedial and Advancement Classes During Summer for the K to 12 Basic Education Program) and DO 25, s. 2022 (Amendment to DepEd Order No. 13, s. 2018) and all other issuances inconsistent with this Order and their provisions are repealed, rescinded, or amended accordingly.
