Abstract

Blended learning offers immense advantages to students – they stand to benefit from the
structured practices of the classroom while learning at their own pace, owing to the adaptive and
personalized nature of online learning (Ferrante, 2017). However, managing a school in a
flexible learning environment brings a unique set of challenges. Building an effective blended
learning environment requires careful planning and preparation. This paper aimed to provide
adequate insights into the experiences in transforming a school into a blended learning school
and the challenges encountered during the transition phase. It specifically contributed vision and
wisdom into the management of a blended learning environment transitioning from the
traditional. Qualitative case study research methodology was used in this study to determine
how the school environment was transformed from traditional learning to blended learning.
There can be no denying the fact that online learning is here to stay. Thus, the transformation of
the school into a blended learning environment is noteworthy and worth emulating for other
basic education schools in the country. It is a collaborative work of the people behind the
meticulous process spearheaded by the principal to successfully transform the school into a
blended learning environment preparing new generations to be well-rounded and globally
competitive individuals
