On the morning of February 7, Mr. Phan Tien Lam - Principal of Quang Phuc Primary School No. 1 (Ba Don town, Quang Binh province) said that up to now, no students from Tan My satellite school have come to the main school to continue studying.
The school sent teachers from 6 classes with students at the satellite school to their homes to discuss, explain and encourage parents to bring their children to school on schedule.
At the same time, the school also asked for instructions from superiors on the issue of students not coming to school.
According to Mr. Nguyen Van Tinh - Vice Chairman of Ba Don Town People's Committee, the town government is asking for opinions from the Standing Committee of the Town Party Committee to have optimal solutions.
In the immediate future, the government will coordinate with the Fatherland Front, sectors, organizations and schools to go to each house to mobilize people. Continuing to study at separate schools is extremely dangerous for students and teachers.
As reported by Lao Dong Newspaper, after the Lunar New Year holiday, 154 students of Tan My school (Quang Phuc Primary School No. 1, Quang Phuc Ward) still could not return to class because their parents objected to the decision to transfer from the satellite school to the main school.
People said that the main school is nearly 2km away from the satellite school, so traveling is difficult, so they want to continue studying at this school.
Ba Don Town People's Committee said that at this school, there are 7 classrooms that are no longer safe.
The Tan My satellite school was built a long time ago and is vulnerable to natural disasters. Therefore, the government invited the Construction Quality Inspection Center (Quang Binh Department of Construction) to conduct a site inspection.
All 7 classrooms are seriously degraded. Many structural components are no longer able to withstand the load, are in a state of local danger, and cannot be used normally.
Therefore, the People's Committee of Ba Don town decided to temporarily close the Tan My satellite school and transfer all students to the main school - which has better facilities, a spacious campus and full learning equipment.
