II. OBJECTIVES

The objective is to take precautionary measures to anticipate, prevent or minimize the

adverse effects of earthquake, landslides and flood to children’s immediate access to

education during disaster and lead learners' in attaining the complete and full cycle of

education.

This seeks to secure learners' access to resources that are critical in supporting the process of

education, support children's attendance in school and facilitate return to normalcy

especially during emergencies. These include physical infrastructure and facilities, teaching

and learning materials and other similar resources.

To enhance coordination mechanics with LGU and other stakeholders.

III. HAZARDS

The City of La Carlota is rich in culture and proud history. However, the city also had its own

share of disaster experienced in the country. The city’s vulnerability to storm surge and tsunami

is not that high but is vulnerable to the effects of natural hazards including typhoon, landslides

and earthquake because of its location and topography.

4

In the event of the occurrence of strong tropical storms and presence of prolonged rainfall

particularly on the months of June to December, it is expected that floods, flash floods and

landslides are expected to affect the access to education of learners during the impacts of

hazards.

The challenge now is the delivery of quality education to affected areas and the provision of

better learning atmosphere for the students. The priority of the Department is ensuring

resumption of classes as soon as possible and the provision of spaces and tents, of learners

and teachers kits, alternative delivery mode modules and other instructional needs.

IV. DISASTERS, IMPACTS AND VULNERABLE DIVISIONS

5

Barangay III-Poblacion has not experienced the worst disasters in recent Philippine

History. It is only in 1984 that the city was devastated by Typhoon Nitang. A 5.2 magnitude

earthquake in 2012 was experienced but brought no major damaging effects on the

infrastructure, economy as well as the education sector.

The city’s vulnerability to natural hazards, as of now, may not be very high to cause damage

and disrupt the people’s normal living including the departments pursuit for continued quality

education.

IX. PREPAREDNESS MEASURES

The occurrence of widespread rainfall recorded in most PAGASA stations during the

past few days due to the southwest monsoon (“Habagat”) confirms the onset of the

rainy season over the western part of the country.

Western Visayas and the provinces of Occidental Mindoro and Palawan will

experience cloudy skies with scattered rain showers and thunderstorms due to

Southwest Monsoon. The rest of Visayas will have partly cloudy to cloudy skies with

isolated rain showers due to localized thunderstorms.

Moderate to strong winds from the Southwest to South will prevail over Western

Visayas, Palawan and Occidental Mindoro with moderate to rough seas. Light to

moderate winds from the Southwest to West will prevail over the rest of Visayas with

slight to moderate seas.

PAGASA will continue to closely monitor the situation, and updates/advisories shall

be issued as appropriate. The public and all concerned agencies are advised to

take precautionary measures against the impacts of the rainy season.

Immediate effect of this are disruption of classes due to the displaced family using

schools as evacuation center, damaged school buildings, facilities, teaching and

learning materials and disruption of major lifelines.
