The Department of Education and Training requires schools to proactively review and inspect facilities, especially classrooms, functional rooms, roofs, drainage systems, etc. to ensure safety against storms; deploy bracing of classroom doors; prepare evacuation plans, move students, teachers, documents and teaching equipment to safe places.
Depending on the specific developments of rain and storms in each locality, heads of units and schools proactively prepare necessary equipment such as sandbags, tarpaulins, drinking water, food reserves, and medicine to cope with heavy rain, flooding, and strong winds; check electrical systems and telecommunications equipment to prevent risks caused by lightning or power outages during storms. On the other hand, assign staff, teachers, and employees to be on duty 24/7 to prevent and combat storms.
