Extent of Compliance of Alternative Delivery Modes in Senior High School: Basis for an Intervention Plan

Abstract

In order to maintain learning continuity during extended school disruptions, the Philippine educational system had to make the transition to Alternative Delivery Modes (ADM). The purpose of this study was to assess the level of ADM implementation and compliance in senior high schools in the Camalaniugan District during the 2024–2025 academic year. The study included document analysis, interviews, and survey questionnaires as part of a descriptive-correlational research design. Teachers chosen through purposive sampling were among the respondents. To ascertain the associations between variables, quantitative data were evaluated using weighted mean, frequency, percentage, and Pearson's r.

The results showed that although ADM standards were somewhat met, problems remained in areas including poor internet access, delayed module creation and delivery, more work for teachers, and little parental assistance. In spite of this, schools showed flexibility by creating community learning centers and fortifying their relationships with regional partners. The effectiveness of implementation and adherence to ADM standards were found to be significantly positively correlated. The study comes to the conclusion that localized innovations and ongoing institutional support are essential for enhancing the delivery of ADM. It is suggested that DepEd strengthen ADM-specific teacher preparation and resource mobilization, as well as institutionalize barangay-based learning support centers.
