🎯 Why DepEd Changed It

According to Department of Education, the new system aims to:

  • Improve learning time
  • Reduce class disruptions
  • Lessen teacher workload
  • Strengthen the ARAL Program
  • Help students recover learning gaps
  • Improve fair and quality education

📌 Important Note

Private schools and colleges with basic education may also adopt the three-term calendar if they follow required class days and opening schedules.

💡 My Honest Take

This is a major change from the usual quarter system. If implemented well, it may help students focus better and reduce rushed lessons.
