The Department of Education and Training requires units to seriously implement the document on proactively responding to storm No. 13, absolutely not to be negligent or subjective. Schools must prepare plans to ensure the safety of teachers, students, trainees, as well as the school's assets and documents.
Educational institutions are required to promptly notify parents; arrange teachers and staff to manage preschool children and students during the break; for schools that organize boarding, it is necessary to stop receiving food to avoid wasting meals.

After the storm, schools need to urgently repair the damage, clean schools, prevent epidemics, and soon stabilize teaching and learning. The Department noted that it is not to be rigid in organizing teaching and learning before and after storms; at the same time, it cares, supports, and encourages teachers, students, and families facing difficulties due to natural disasters...
