Due to continuous heavy rains and the threat of flooding in several areas, the Department of Education (DepEd) and various local government units (LGUs) may announce class suspensions (Walang Pasok) on Saturday, October 4, 2025. This precautionary step prioritizes the safety of students, teachers, and school personnel, following advisories from PAGASA and disaster response agencies.
Heavy rains may prompt several cities, municipalities, and schools to suspend face-to-face classes (Walang Pasok) on October 4, 2025 (Saturday). Torrential rains exceeding 100 mm are expected to hit many areas in the central and southern parts of the country. Further, the weather agency has already alerted the public about the risk of flooding and landslides. PAGASA forecasts that the heavy rains will intensify from the afternoon into the evening. In addition, this weather disturbance prompted class suspensions in various areas, as announced by the Department of Education (DepEd) and local government units.
Safety Reminders for Students and Parents
Due to the heavy rains expected on October 4, 2025 (Saturday), several local government units and DepEd divisions may suspend face-to-face classes. During these weather disturbances, students and parents must remain alert and take precautionary measures, especially in flood-prone and low-lying areas. Staying indoors and avoiding unnecessary travel can significantly reduce the risk of accidents and exposure to unsafe conditions.
To stay safe, families are advised to avoid flooded areas, even if the water appears shallow and calm. It’s also important to monitor official news sources, such as PAGASA, NDRRMC, and local government updates, for real-time advisories. Prepare emergency kits with essential items, including food, water, a flashlight, and first aid supplies. Also, ensure that all devices are fully charged to stay connected and informed during power interruptions or emergencies. Prioritizing safety and preparedness can help protect lives and ease the impact of severe weather.
Weather Update from PAGASA for October 4, 2025
Severe Tropical Storm Paolo was spotted east of Aurora, packing winds of up to 100 km/h and gusts reaching 125 km/h. It moves west-northwestward, bringing stormy weather to Cagayan Valley, CAR, Ilocos Region, Aurora, and Nueva Ecija. These areas face heavy to intense rains and strong winds that could trigger floods, landslides, and damage to property. The rest of Central Luzon, Quezon, Camarines Norte, Camarines Sur, and Catanduanes will have rains with gusty winds, posing risks of flooding and minor wind damage. Meanwhile, Metro Manila, other parts of Luzon, and Western Visayas will see cloudy skies with scattered rains and thunderstorms.
With these conditions, the likelihood of class suspensions is high across Northern and Central Luzon, where stormy weather poses serious safety concerns. Schools in Metro Manila and Western Visayas may also suspend classes if moderate to heavy rains persist. Even in other regions, localized thunderstorms may still disrupt normal school activities. Parents, teachers, and students should closely monitor PAGASA bulletins and local government announcements as authorities may declare suspensions to ensure safety.
Given the current forecast, class suspensions are possible, especially if rainfall warnings escalate. According to DepEd Order No. 037, s. 2022, which updates the implementation of automatic class suspensions:
- Orange Rainfall Warning prompts the automatic suspension of classes from Kindergarten to Senior High School (both public and private).
- Red Rainfall Warning results in automatic class suspension at all levels.
While PAGASA has not yet issued color-coded rainfall warnings for October 4, the widespread moderate to heavy rains in monsoon-affected areas suggest that local government units (LGUs) may declare suspensions in anticipation of possible flooding or landslides. Therefore, students, parents, and school authorities are advised to closely monitor PAGASA advisories and LGU announcements, especially in areas already experiencing significant rainfall or hazards.

FAQs about Class Suspension
Currently, there are several cities or provinces that have declared class suspensions or Walang Pasok.
Suspensions are usually based on PAGASA’s rainfall warning levels, flood forecasts, or storm signals. The safety of students, especially in flood-prone areas, is the top priority.
Not always. Public schools follow DepEd or LGU announcements, while private schools, colleges, and universities may issue separate advisories.
This depends on the school or division office. In some cases, face-to-face classes are suspended; however, online or modular classes may continue unless otherwise stated.
