Kamakailan lamang ay sumailalim ang [PANGALAN NG PAARALAN] sa location risk assessment at school safety assessment at naaprubahang magsagawa ng harapang pagkaklase (face-to-face classes) ng Kagawaran ng Edukasyon at ng Kagawaran ng Kalusugan. Ito ay nagpapatunay na ang aming paaralan ay sumusunod sa pampublikong pamantayang pangkalusugan (minimum public health standards) na itinakda ng pamahalaan.

Kaugnay nito, ang [PANGALAN NG PAARALAN] ay lalahok sa paunang implementasyon ng harapang pagkaklase. Ang gawaing ito ay naglalayong paunlarin ang mga estratehiya, maunawaan ang mahahalagang konsiderasyon ng mga stakeholder, at matukoy ang mga kagamitang kinakailangan para sa mabisa at mahusay na transisyon ng mga mag-aaral mula sa distance learning patungo sa mas malawak na pagpapatupad ng harapang pagkaklase (expanded face-to-face classes).

Isasagawa ang gawaing ito nang hindi lalampas sa dalawang buwan sa mga paaralang maingat na pinili sa mga lugar na tinukoy na may pinakamababang panganib sa COVID-19 at makapagbibigay ng iba’t ibang pananaw batay sa kanilang lokal na konteksto at pinakamahuhusay na pamamaraan.

MGA PANGANIB, PAGBIBIGAY NG PAHINTULOT (CONSENT) AT WAIVER

Pinatutunayan sa pamamagitan nito, na bilang magulang o legal na tagapangalaga ni/nina ay

ipinaalam sa akin ang mga detalye ng pagsasagawa ng Paunang Implementasyon ng Pamamaraang Harapang Pagkaklase.

Nauunawaan kong ipatutupad ng [PANGALAN NG PAARALAN] ang mga pampublikong pamantayang pangkalusugan na itinakda ng pamahalaan, subalit hindi nito matitiyak na hindi mahahawahan ng COVID-19 ang aking anak, sapagkat lubhang nakahahawa ang COVID-19.

Nauunawaan kong kabilang sa harapang pagdalo sa mga klase ng aking anak/mga anak ang pakikihalubilo sa mga guro, kamag-aral at mga empleyado ng paaralan, at iba pang tao sa loob at labas ng paaralan na maaaring magdulot ng pagkahawa ng aking anak sa COVID-19, sa kabila ng mga pag-iingat na isinasagawa ng paaralan.

Nauunawaan kong ganap na boluntaryo ang paglahok ng aking anak/mga anak sa gawaing ito. Bagamat nananatili ang posibilidad ng pagkahawa sa COVID-19 ng aking anak/mga anak, at ng aming mga kasama sa bahay, tinatanggap ko ang mga kaakibat nitong panganib (freely assume the risk) at pinahihintulutan kong lumahok ang aking anak/mga anak sa gawaing ito.

Batid ko ang mga sintomas ng COVID-19 kung saan kabilang ang, ngunit hindi limitado sa, lagnat, pag-ubo, pangangapos ng hininga, pagkapagod, pananakit at pagkirot ng katawaan o kalamnan, pagkawala ng panlasa o pang-amoy, pananakit ng lalamunan (sore throat), sipon o baradong ilong, pagduduwal, pagsusuka, at pagtatae.

Kinukumpirma ko na ang aking anak/mga anak ay wala ng mga nabanggit na sintomas, at kasalukuyang may mabuting kalusugan. Hindi ko pahihintulutan ang aking anak/mga anak na harapang pumasok sa paaralan kung ang aking anak/mga anak o sinumang kasama sa bahay ang makaranas ng mga nabanggit na sintomas o makaranas ng iba pang sintomas na maaaring may kaugnayan sa COVID-19. Ipaaalam ko sa paaralan ang aming kundisyon at hindi ko pahihintulutang lumahok sa harapang klase ang aking anak/mga anak kung siya/sila o sinumang kasama sa bahay ay magpositibo sa COVID-19. Ako, ang aking anak/mga anak at ang aming mga kasama sa bahay, ay susunod sa mga protokol na pangkalusugan at pangkaligtasan at sa mga pamamaraang isinasagawa ng paaralan at ng aming komunidad.

Sa hangganang pinahihintulutan sa ilalim ng batas at ng mga patakaran, sumasang-ayon ako na talikuran ang anumang paghahabla o paghahabol at lubusan kong tinatalikuran ang anumang karapatan, paghahabol, anumang usapin o pagsasampa ng kaso laban sa paaralan, mga empleyado at opisyal nito, at sa Kagawaran ng Edukasyon kaugnay sa pagpapatupad ng gawaing ito.

Dahil naunawaan ko ang lahat ng mga nabanggit, ipinapahayag ko – sa ngalan ng aking sarili, mga kasama sa aking bahay, at ng aking anak – ang aking malaya at boluntaryong pagpapahintulot sa paglahok ng aking anak/mga anak sa gawaing ito simula [PETSA NG SIMULA] hanggang [PETSA NG PAGTATAPOS]. Pinatototohanan kong sumangguni ako sa opinyon ng aking anak at nagpahayag siya ng kanyang pagsang-ayon sa paglahok sa gawaing ito.
