Suspension Of Classes by DepEd - Too late?

The Department of Education in NCR has announced before noon today, August 3, 2011, that classes this afternoon in Metro Manila are already suspended.

As announced, all afternoon classes in preschool, elementary and highschool levels in the National Capital Region (NCR) are suspended effective 12 noon today.

Isn't it a too late suspension?

DepEd's latest announcement on the suspension of classes for August 3, 2011 was based on PAGASA's 11am weather bulletin on Bagyong Kabayan which is forecast to bring moderate to heavy rainfalls throughout the day in NCR.

The suspension of classes came as the students were in school wrapping up their morning classes, 8 hours after DepEd announced at 4 AM today that there will be regular classes.

It would have been more convenient and much safer if DepEd ordered the suspension of classes as early as last night so that the students just stayed at home.

Some had to wake up early this morning just for DepEd's announcement only to know that there will be no suspension of morning classes.
