As of the morning of August 5, preliminary statistics at 48/75 communes and wards in the province showed that 19 communes and wards recorded damage at 39 educational institutions, with a total estimated value of up to 22,577 billion VND.
The affected items are mainly facilities such as fences, anti-erosion embankments, schoolyards, roofs, classrooms... which are severely damaged, eroded or completely collapsed, posing a high risk of safety loss.
Most educational institutions are currently only temporarily or unable to fix the problem.
Some schools in communes that suffered heavy damage include: Huoi Mot commune estimated damage of 9.251 billion VND; Phu Yen commune about 3.2 billion VND; Chieng Khuong commune is more than 1.38 billion VND; Pung Banh commune about 1.05 billion VND...
In addition, many schools also recorded damage to teaching equipment such as desks, chairs, boards, electrical equipment, learning aids, etc.
Most educational institutions have only temporarily repaired the problem or have not been able to fix it yet, significantly affecting preparations for the new school year.
Informing the Government Electronic Newspaper , Mr. Nguyen Van Chien, Deputy Director in charge of the Department of Education and Training of Son La province, said that the local education sector has been urgently implementing temporary solutions to ensure the progress of the new school year.
Specifically, for educational institutions whose classrooms and work areas were directly affected, students were temporarily arranged to study at the old commune People's Committee headquarters, which still ensured the minimum conditions for organizing teaching and learning. This arrangement was carried out flexibly, with close coordination between local authorities and schools, to minimize disruption to students' learning process.
Consecutively on July 26-27 and July 31-August 1, Son La province experienced heavy rains considered historic, causing many communes to be submerged in water, roads to be cut off due to flash floods and serious landslides.
In addition, for schools with less severe damage such as collapsed fences and landslides, the Department has sent a document to the competent authorities requesting financial support to promptly repair and restore facilities before the new school year peaks.
Mr. Chien affirmed that although there are still many difficulties ahead, thanks to the proactive response and timely coordination between relevant parties along with the close attention and direction of all levels and sectors, up to now, the above damages have not affected the organization of the opening ceremony of the 2025-2026 school year in the province.
