Education (DepEd) Assistant Secretary Francis Bringas, concurrent deputy spokesman, said that they will prioritize the construction of classrooms in areas heavily affected by natural disasters. Over P10 billion from the proposed 2024 national budget will be used to build 7,000 classrooms. Around 24.6 million students are enrolled, but more are expected to come in as some schools are taking a while to submit their figures.
