 ABSTRACT

Dulla M. Tarang, Rhaizal S. Ambaih, Rashied Najib Bin Mohd. Najib Bin (2018).THE
IMPLEMENTATION OF THE DISASTER RISK REDUCTION MANAGEMENT
(DRRM) IN BALIWASAN DISTRICT. A Qualitative - Quantitative Research for Science,
Technology, Engineering and Mathematics Strand of Baliwasan Seniot High School. Adviser:
Dr. Deborah E. Bandahala.

The main focus of this study was to determine the implementation of disaster risk reduction

management in Baliwasan District. Specifically it sought answers to the following research

objectives: to determine the extent of implementation of the disaster risk reduction management

in some public schools in terms of landslide, flood, earthquake, tsunami and fire. To determine the

significant difference in the extent of implementation of the DRRM when the respondents are

grouped by school.

This is a Quantitative type of research. This type of research methods requires quantifiable

data involving numerical and statistical explanations. It utilized survey strategy in gathering the

data.

There were exactly eight (8) respondents in eight identified schools which are one (1)

respondent of Baliwasan Senior High School Stand Alone, one (1) respondent in Southcom Senior

High School, one (1) respondent in Baliwasan Central School, one (1) respondent in Zamboanga

National High School West, one (1) respondent in San Jose Gusu Elementary School, one (1)

respondent in John Spirig Elementary School, one (1) respondent in Southern Support Command

Elementary School, and one (1) respondent in Malagutay Elementary school. Based on the data of

School Year 2018–2019, the total population of the respondents of all schools is eight (8).
 Based on the results of this study, 4.42% the students were informed by the teacher to go

to higher level of the building in case of heavy flood. Followed by 4.32% the school has strategies

on how to reduce the flood in the campus, 4.27% the students have knowledge on what to do

during heavy flood, 4.13% the teachers make the students aware of the causes of landslide and

4.10% the school has complete equipment in case a heavy flood occurs. The significant difference

in the extent of implementation of the DRRM when the respondents are grouped by school includes

the following: flood is found to have high extent in implementation of disaster risk reduction

management in some public schools in Zamboanga City which is (4.14). Followed by fire (3.77),

landslide (3.62) earthquake (3.58) and tsunami (3.47) which have also a high extent.

The researchers made recommend that: Department of Education (DepEd) must craft

programs that include the teaching of Disaster Risk Reduction Management in the public schools.

School principals must recommend to the Division Office for the offering of DRRM subject.

DRRM Head should coordinate with school principal in the proposal of including the DRRM

subject in public schools. Teachers must upgrade and enhance their professional qualification by

undertaking a training that related to the DRRM so that they can smoothly impart the knowledge

on the DRRM teaching. Students must learn and participate in the DRRM subject. Future

Researchers are encourage to conduct a study similar to this, using other variables.

INTRODUCTION

Background of the Study

The policy objective of anticipating and reducing risk is called disaster risk reduction

(DRR). Although often used interchangeably with DRR, disaster risk management (DRM) can be

thought of as the implementation of DRR, since it describes the actions that aim to achieve the

objective of reducing risk.

In a study conducted by Glenn Fernandez and Rajib Shaw 2014, with the UN-led

celebration of the International Year of Youth from August 2010 to August 2011 there has been

renewed interest in young people and vital role they can play in important issues, such as Disaster

Risk Reduction (DRR). This study aims to examine the potential of science clubs as a vehicle for

youth participation in DRR in the Philippines. A questionnaire survey was conducted to obtain

quantitative and qualitative data. A total of 658 science club members from different provinces of

the Philippines participated in the survey. The result of the survey is used to explain how the major

barriers to youth participation in DRR can be overcome. Through science clubs, the youth can

become a link between their school, home and community and can contribute to spreading

knowledge about disaster prevention, preparedness and response learned inside and outside of the

classroom.

Recalling Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015-2030 targets for 2020 and

2030, one of the areas identified by Member States where technical support is required is in

developing the capacity of institutions and professionals dealing with disaster risk reduction and

the implementation of the Sendai Framework at the national and local level. Thus, United Nations

International Strategy for Disaster Reduction (UNISDR), in collaboration with partners, is

developing a long-term disaster risk reduction capacity-building strategy, the Global Capacity

Development Strategy. Methodologies for integrating climate change adaptation within disaster

risk reduction planning and for integrating disaster risk reduction within national development

planning aligned with the SDGs will also be provided. The implementation of the Global Capacity

Development Strategy will support Member States to better understand the disasters risk

associated to water-related hazards in all its dimensions of exposure, vulnerability and hazard

characteristics which will enable the development of water-related disasters risk-informed

development plans. (Sendai Framework December 12, 2017).

Thailand was the proud host of the first ever ASIAN DISASTER RISK REDUCTION

EXPO (ADRE) which will in Bangkok at the IMPACT exhibition Center, from 4-7 November.

ADRE is fully supported by the Bangkok Administration and Bangkok Fire. The exhibition will

comprise an Expo, Conference and Networking Event focused on one of the most important areas

in the world today – natural and man-made disasters. The need for such an event is now greater

than ever as underlined by recent global catastrophes. Economic losses from global disasters have

now exceeded $100 billion for three consecutive years, from 2010 to 2012 - the first time this has

happened, according to the U.N. Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNISDR).

The Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction is an international (non-binding)

agreement, listing seven targets and four priorities for action. The Framework recognizes that the

State has the primary role to fulfil when it comes to reducing disaster risk, but this responsibility

should be shared with other stakeholders, such as local governments and civil society. The targets

of the framework range from reducing global disaster mortality by 2030, to substantially reduce

the number of people affected globally by 2030. A list of the targets and actions can be found here.

As previously stated, natural disasters do not occur spontaneously, they are the effect of a natural
hazard and the choices societies have made in order to prevent natural hazards in

becoming actual disasters. Disaster risk reduction is a choice. (NASA’s Aqua December 12, 2017)

The Philippines is one of the most vulnerable countries in the world to climate change and

disasters. Nearly 74 percent of the population and 80 percent of the land area are vulnerable to

disaster, with the capital of Manila considered at “extreme risk.” Typhoons and storms, which

make up 58 percent of all disasters in the country, related flooding (25 percent) and landslides (six

percent) pose the greatest threats to the country. Storms surpass all other disasters in terms of

number of fatalities, people affected and economic damage. Earthquakes (five percent), volcanic

eruptions (five percent) and drought (one percent) can also have devastating effects. Cumulatively,

these disasters cause an average of over 1,000 deaths per year. The National Disaster Risk

Reduction and Management Council (NDRRMC), created in 2010, is responsible for disaster risk

reduction, including good governance, risk assessment, early warning, raising public awareness,

reducing risk factors, and preparedness for effective response and early recovery. This agency also

formulated the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management framework, as a principal guide

for all efforts in the country. Many branches of the Philippine government are tasked with

addressing some aspect of disaster prevention, preparedness, recovery and rehabilitation and

climate change adaptation. The Nationwide Operational Assessment of Hazards program (Project

NOAH), led by the DOST, partners with academics and other stakeholders to develop systems,

tools and other technologies to prevent and mitigate disasters.

Reducing disaster risks confronting the education sector is paramount to the achievement

of the Department of Education’s (DepEd) outcomes, namely: access, quality and governance. The

ongoing implementation of these pillars is aligned with DepEd’s commitment to the four thematic

areas of the Philippine DRRM Act of 2010, otherwise known as RA 10121. These areas are
Prevention and Mitigation, Preparedness, Response, Recovery and Rehabilitation. To enable

focused, effective and strategic implementation, DepEd has established the office of the Disaster

Risk Reduction and Management Service (DRRMS), with regular full-time staff in its central,

regional and division officers. The division offices are responsible for ensuring that schools have

a functioning disaster management team. This School Disaster Risk Reduction and Management

Manual provides guidance to our division coordinators and schools in the implementation of the

Comprehensive DRRM in Basic Education Framework. This Manual explains the Framework and

identifies the tools to be used by the schools, with a particular focus on School Disaster

Management (Pillar 2). (Armin A. Luistro 2009)

According to the study of Princess Alma B. Ani, Carl Rookie O. Daquio, and Albert P.

Aquino the Philippines as an archipelago is highly exposed to natural hazards because of its

geographic and climatological location. It is situated along the Pacific Typhoon Belt and is within

the Pacific Ring of Fire. As such, the country is susceptible to multiple recurrence of natural

hazards such as typhoons and storm surges, earthquakes, floods and landslides. In fact, the country

is ranked third among 173 countries in terms of disaster risk (World Risk Report, 2012 as cited in

Disaster Management Practices in the Philippines: An Assessment, 2013). The brunt of these

natural hazards, especially flooding occurrences, is felt the most by 27.6 million Filipinos who are

among the poorest and marginalized. They are often trapped in a seemingly never-ending cycle of

disaster, displacement and rebuilding (UNICEF Philippines, 2014). However, while natural

disasters are detrimental to properties and livelihood activities that caused grave economic impacts

especially to the poor, their occurrence are among the major causes of casualties in the country.

Annually, it was estimated that natural calamities claim about 1,002 lives. For a country like the
Philippines, a proactive disaster risk management approach is imperative with the end view of

increasing people’s resilience and decreasing their vulnerabilities to natural disasters.

In the passed-year 2016, Victoria D. Jurilla was conducted her study in Iloilo Province,

Philippines in the areas of Dissemination, Implementation, and Resource Utilization and Operation

as evaluated by the 390 citizens of the ten (10) selected municipalities from the five (5)

Congressional Districts in Province of Iloilo, Philippines. This descriptive method of research

employed researcher-made instruments and random interviews. Descriptive statistics used were

the mean and standard deviation while inferential statistics employed test for independent samples

and one-way analysis for variance set at .05 level significances. Findings revealed that Disaster

Risk Reduction Preparedness of Iloilo Province, Philippines is “more effective” in terms of

dissemination, implementation, and resource utilization and operation according to the assessment

of the 390 respondents of the ten (10) selected municipalities from the five (5) Congressional

Districts when they were grouped as to personal variables. In a whole, Iloilo Province was more

effective in its Disaster Risk Reduction Preparedness.

The following school that we conduct our research are Baliwasan Senior High School

Stand – Alone, Zamboaga National High School West, Baliwasan Central School, John Spirig

Elementary School, San Jose Gusu Elementary School, Southcom Senior High School, Southern

Support Command Elementary school and Malagutay Elementary School. These are the schools

that implement the DRRM and we would like to determine the benefit of implementing the policies

of DRRM in these schools.

The reason why we conduct this research is to determine the benefit of implementing the

Policies of DRRM and to know how it can benefit the schools and students to help them reduce or

minimize the casualties during a disaster.

Theoretical Framework

This study is anchored on the RA 10121 provides a comprehensive, all-hazard, multi-

sectoral, inter-agency, and community-based approach to disaster risk management through the

formulation of the National Disaster Risk Management Framework. A National Disaster Risk

Management Plan (NDRMP) is being formulated, developed, and implemented as the master plan

that will provide the strategies, organization, tasks of concerned agencies and local government

units, and other guidelines in dealing with disasters or emergencies. The law also promotes the

development of capacities in disaster management at the individual, organizational, and

institutional levels. A very important feature of this law is its call for the mainstreaming of disaster

risk reduction in physical and land-use planning, budget, infrastructure, education, health,

environment, housing, and other sectors. RA 10121 also recognizes local risk patterns and trends

and de/centralisation of resources and responsibilities and thus encourages the participation of

NGOs, private sectors, community-based organizations, and community members in disaster

management. Moreover, the Act mandates the establishment of a Disaster Risk Reduction and

Management Office (DRRMO) in every province, city and municipality, and a Barangay Disaster

Risk Reduction and Management Committee (BDRRMC) in every barangay. The Strategic

National Action Plan on Disaster Risk Reduction for 2009-2019 aims to enhance the capacities of

Local Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Councils. Finally, RA10121 provides for the

calamity fund to be used in support of disaster risk reduction or mitigation, prevention, and

preparedness activities for the potential occurrence of disasters and not just for response, relief,

and rehabilitation efforts. (Legislative 2010)

 The Philippines has a comprehensive disaster risk reduction and management law since

2010 (RA 10121), has an extensive network of disaster risk reduction and management agencies

and organizations, has the knowledge and skills available to make the country a safer place, where

people can live without fear of disasters.

Paper provides three steps to break down this duty and do those things first that generate

the most effectiveness in reducing risks. Execute a nationwide analysis of high risk, low income

areas. The results will prioritize the areas where implementation of the law is needed the most.

Make DRRM information and data readily available by establishing a national DRRM Knowledge

Management Center, adopting an open data policy and fostering cohesion. Implementation of the

RA 10121 will continue to lack behind unless local government units see the need and feel the

urgency for DRRM and have the capacity to implement the law’s provisions. Currently

implementation lacks behind due to asymmetrical decentralization: the uneven delegation to the

local level of responsibilities and capacity for DRRM. National agencies involved with capacity

building efforts have to focus on local needs; for capacity building to be (cost) effective, first of

all they need to understand differences in risk profiles between areas. Scarce resources should be

invested in those areas most at risk and in need for assistance. With increased capacity, local

government units can find support from their community for disaster risk reduction programs.

(Efrath Silver (Voluntary Service Overseas, European Union, November 6, 2014).

We use this act because its provide us the implementation of DRRM and e can determine

the act cover capacities and how it work as implemented and how the implementation of the

response to the people or government and its benefit to the person of a country where the act is

implement.
 The significance of this act to be use in this study is for us to use as proof on how we can

strengthen the implementation of DRRM in the different public schools and also in the other area

in our city or barangay so that we can minimize the casualties during a disaster.

According to Jurilla, 2016, this study determined the Effectiveness of Disaster Risk

Reduction Preparedness of Iloilo Province, Philippines in the areas of Dissemination,

Implementation, and Resource Utilization and Operation as evaluated by the 390 citizens of the

ten (10) selected municipalities from the five (5) Congressional Districts in the Province of Iloilo,

Philippines. This descriptive method of research employed researcher-made instruments and

random interviews. Descriptive statistics used were the mean and standard deviation while

inferential statistics employed T-test for independent samples and one-way analysis for variance

set at .05 level of significances. Findings revealed that Disaster Risk Reduction Preparedness of

Iloilo Province, Philippines is “more effective” in terms of dissemination, implementation, and

resource utilization and operation according to the assessment of the 390 respondents of the ten

(10) selected municipalities from the five (5) Congressional Districts when they were grouped as

to personal variables. Finally, the findings revealed that three (3) out of ten (10) municipalities

were very effective and among the five (5) districts, first district was very effective as to

dissemination and resource utilization and operation of their respective Disaster Risk Reduction
Preparedness Program but as a whole, Iloilo Province was more effective in its Disaster Risk

Reduction Preparedness.

This paper measured the organizational effectiveness of the Barangay Risk Reduction and

Management Committees by Antonio, 2017. It focused on the flood-prone barangays of

Cabanatuan City, Philippines. The study used the Gold Medal of Organizational Theory to measure

the effectiveness of BDRRMCs. The effectiveness of BDEEMCs was measured against the goals

and objectives Republic Act 10121 also known as Philippines Disaster Risk Reduction and

Management (DRRM)Act. The study used a research tool the Checklist of Disaster Preparedness

divided into four thematic areas namely; a) Disaster Prevention and Mitigation, b) Disaster

Preparedness, c) Disaster Response, d) Disaster Rehabilitation and Recovery. The resulting scores

were described by the use of Disaster Preparedness Effectiveness index. The study showed the

need for periodic evaluation of the effectiveness of Barangay Disaster Risk Reduction and

Management Committees and to set the standard of performance not only for the purpose of policy

evaluation but also for measuring community involvement in disaster risk reduction.

According to Campilla, 2016, this study determined the level of disaster risk reduction

management practices of school managers in the public elementary schools of the different

divisions of Pangasinan, SY 2015-2016. The researcher arrived at the following findings: 1)

majority of the respondents belong to the age bracket of 61 years old and above that is 62 or 42.2

percent, married that is 113 or 76.9 percent, earned their masteral units that is 48 or 32.7 percent,

have 11-15 years’ experience as school managers and attended relevant trainings in all levels. 2)

the level of disaster risk reduction management practices of public elementary school administrator

obtained an over-all weighted mean of 4.20 which is rated as “Practiced”. The following
recommendations are hereby presented: 1) a well-managed development program on disaster

management should be organized by the DepEd. This is necessary to improve the disaster risk

reduction management practices of school managers in their schools and communities. 2) the very

good practices of school managers in disaster risk reduction management should be continued and

expanded. 3) more intensified training program should be designed, formulated and implemented

to upgrade the skill and competencies of school managers in managing disaster risk reduction in

the school as well as in the community. 4) other studies should be conducted to work into other

aspects of disaster risk reduction management using variable’s in a wider scope.

This study is an assessment of the current state of the City Disaster Risk Reduction

Management Office (CDRRMO) of the City of Calamba , Laguna. The study employed a four-

stage methodology framework using document reviews, surveys, Key Informant Interviews (KIIs),

Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) and actual observation by Kay Losabia, 2016. The CDRRMO

was assess in five (5) dimensions, namely: (1) Disaster Management; (2) Technical Capacity; (3)

Institutional Capacity; (4) Training Capacity; and (5) Financial Capacity. Based on the findings

(current state and the key challenges),the researcher conclude that the level of capacity of the

CDRRMO with regard to the implementation of their plans, programs, and activities on DRRM

are satisfactory. These planned change strategies aim to provide a framework that is relevant, and

strategic for a resilient, equitable and sustainable community over the next three (3) years and

beyond.
Related Studies

In study conducted by Viloria, 2012 to utilizing the case study design, describes the disaster

preparedness of four Typhoon Sendong affected barangays of Iligan City, namely: Hinaplanon,

San Roque, Upper Hinaplanon and Tibanga. The study focuses on the barangay disaster

preparedness before the typhoon, actions taken during the typhoon, and the strategies and activities

undertaken in the aftermath. Group interviews and in-depth interviews were conducted with the

20 barangay informants and the 6 key informants, respectively. Observation method was used to

generate information on the general profiles of the four affected barangays. The data were analyzed

utilizing content analysis .The study reveals that most of the barangays are not prepared for the

disaster due to lack of budget, which apparently resulted to negligence and over-confidence; only

one barangay was able to implement its Barangay Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Plan

(BDRRMP). The lack of proper information-based systems and the ignorance of the residents have

contributed to their unpreparedness. Delayed response and relief are due to impassable roads,

among other things. In the aftermath, barangay government officials have helped in the distribution

of the relief goods and have coordinated with the city and national governments, the NGOs, and

other private sector groups regarding their barangay long term rehabilitation.

According to the International Journalist Jessica in 2018, the impact on disaster governance

of the intersection of environmental hazards, border conflict and disaster responses in Ladakh,

India. The Indian border region of Ladakh, in Jammu and Kashmir State, has a sensitive Himalayan

ecosystem and has experienced natural hazards and disasters of varying scales over the decades. it

argues that, as the border military complex expanded significantly in Ladakh from independence

in 1947 and the region faced a number of conflicts, disaster governance has been additionally
shaped by national security priorities. The paper then examines the impacts of that hazard-centred,

military-led disaster governance for the population of Ladakh. These include: a relief-orientated

disaster management approach, reduced civil society presence and capacity in the region, and

limited local ownership of disaster risk reduction activities. This case study provides important

insight into why disaster risk reduction has been slow or absent in conflict zones.

Because of the extreme vulnerability to natural disasters, Nepal is considered a disaster

hotspot in the world. For a small country with just a little less than 30-million population, the

disaster statistics are always frightening. School students of Nepal are also in extreme risk of

natural disasters, especially when they are in schools. In this context, a few education programs

for disaster risk reduction (DRR) have already been initiated and the results have also been already

documented. However, an evaluation of the real scenario with the help of an independent research

is still lacking. Therefore, this research aims to explore benefits of existing education programs of

DRR in Nepal. Altogether, 124 students from 17 districts were interviewed and various questions

related to disaster information, disaster knowledge, disaster readiness, disaster awareness, disaster

adaptation, and disaster risk perception were asked. Statistical analysis such as histogram analysis,

distribution analysis, bivariate correlations, and independent sample t-tests were conducted to

examine the relationship between students in disaster education-related programs and the key DRR

issues-related dependent variables. Findings of this independent research confirmed that initiatives

taken for disaster education in Nepal are not enough and a major challenge for DRR in a school

community for a country like Nepal is implementing methods, especially at the individual level.

Likewise, the disaster education should not only be confined within the school students, but it must

also be promoted to families and communities.

 In 2006, the ISDR (International Strategy for Disaster Reduction) (2007) initiated a

campaign called Disaster Risk Reduction Begins at School to encourage the integration of disaster

risk education into school curricula in countries vulnerable to disasters. A study was initiated to

determine how education, in particular curriculum development and teaching, contributes to South

African learners’ hazard awareness and disaster preparedness. Mixed method research (consisting

of questionnaires, interviews and document reviews) was done to collect data. 150 educators from

Gauteng, the Western Cape, KwaZulu-Natal, North West and the Eastern Cape completed

questionnaires. Five curriculum coordinators, three disaster specialists and two disaster lecturers

were interviewed to record their perspectives. The first finding of the study was that the majority

of educators, disaster specialists and curriculum coordinators identified floods, fire, droughts,

epidemics, road accidents and storms as the most prevalent disasters in the country. The second

finding from the literature and empirical data collection revealed that South African communities,

particularly people residing in informal settlements and other poor areas, are more vulnerable to

disasters than their counterparts in more affluent areas. The third finding of the study was that

teaching learners about hazards and disasters is vital and must be expanded rate knowledge of

DRRM and to contribute to a disaster safe society in the country.

The role for education in natural disaster management that appeared most frequently in the

literature is teaching children risk reduction and management material. Children often spread

learning to their families and communities and many believe that ‘educating a child is educating a

family’. However, disaster preparedness education can be set up for communities also and not just

restricted to the school environment.

The safety of school buildings is also a major consideration in looking at education and natural

disaster linkages. Children spend up to 50 percent of their waking hours in school facilities and it
is often the case that schools are not constructed or maintained to be disaster resilient. Additionally-

school buildings are often used by the wider community as a shelter in the event of a disaster.

The purpose of this paper is to share the implemented strategy, activities and the process

of cooperation between the educational community in the Zamboanga City, the Civil Protection

Local Authority on raising awareness about disaster reduction in public schools. The authors

RESEARCH METODOLOGY

This chapter presents the methods and procedures utilized in conducting this study. This

presents a brief description about design, the sampling procedure and instrument to be used.

Research Design

This study is a quantitative and qualitative type of research employing survey method. It is

quantitative because this is believed or considered as the most appropriate in order to fully identify

the strategy in Implement the Disaster Risk Reduction in some Public Schools in Zamboanga City.

Descriptive research does not fit neatly into the definition of either quantitative or

qualitative research methodologies, but instead it can utilize elements of both, often within the

same study. The term descriptive research refers to the type of research question, design, and data

analysis that will be applied to a given topic. Descriptive statistics tell what is, while inferential

statistics try to determine cause and effect.

Research Local

This study was conducted in Baliwasan District in Zamboanga City namely Baliwasan

Senior High School Stand Alone, Zamboanga National High School West, Baliwasan Elementary

School, San Jose Gusu Elementary School, John Spirig Elementary School, Southcom Senior High

School, Southern Support Command Elementary School and Malagutay Elementary School. The

ongoing implementation of these pillar is aligned with DepEd commitment to the four thematic

areas of the Philippine DRRM Act of 2010, otherwise known as RA 10121. These areas are

Prevention and Mitigation, Preparedness, Response, Recovery and Rehabilitation. This School

Disaster Risk Reduction Management Manual provides guidance to our division coordinators and

schools in the implementation of the Comprehensive DRRM in Basic Education Framework. This
manual explains the framework and identifies the tools to be used by the schools, with particular

focus on School Disaster Management. (ARMINA A. LUISTRO 2009)

Population Sampling

The target population of the study were Senior High School Students, Principal and

Teachers of the four schools mentioned above based on the data of school year 2018-2019.

TOTAL 60

As shown in table 1, the total population of the respondents is sixty (60). To determine the

respondents, the researchers used the random sampling technique in one school per cluster. The

choice of school is based from the implementation of the DRRM in some public schools in

Zamboanga City and it’s based from the tracks offered by each school.

Data Gathering Tools

The researchers crafted and formulated 25 statements to determine the Implementation of

the Disaster Risk Reduction Management in selected Public Schools in Zamboanga City. The

research instrument for this study is a questionnaire survey on perception of the students. The

survey questionnaire consists of two parts. Part I solicits the respondents’ personal information

like gender, ethnicity, age, track, and school. Part II – A, consists of a 25-items test of factors on

implementation of the disaster risk reduction management in some public schools in Zamboanga

City.
 Each construct has five choices such as very often, often, sometimes, seldom and never. In

addition, the respondents are asked to place a check in the appropriate space after each statement,

and then scoring directions at the bottom of the page will be used to determine their learning style.

The researchers were able to construct survey questionnaires which were divided into two.

Implementation of aids and strategies during the calamities

Problem 1 Respondent

1. How do the school P1. Earthquake and Fire as long as the tsunami and
administrators landslide we didn’t experience that kind of hazard in
implemented the aids and Baliwasan Central and also a flood so in terms of strategies
strategies during the implemented by the school for the three mention such as
following calamities? earthquake tsunami and fire, we usually conducted an
1.1 landslide orientation to the parents, pupils and stakeholders and also
1.2 flood to the teachers at the same time, we also conducted an
1.3 earthquake earthquake drill four times in a year and also we crafted our
1.4 fire contingency plan for earthquake, for the fire, and for the
1.5 tsunami tsunami and then every year also we evaluated our
contingency plan.

P2.Usually focus on the most common the earthquake, and

possible of tsunami because of the location, that is our
focus in implementation of the strategies to address this
impossible disasters and also in terms of the aid, we also
getting ready like first aid kit, materials of the DRR like
spine board made for the responses of the disaster so we do
also a drills just like what we do so it is effective when we
conducted it during that time we successfully execute
properly the earthquake drill.

P3. As I have said, only those of the calamities prone to our

school include landslide, earthquake and fire. Like
landslide, we always identify the evacuation area if this
thing will happen impossible the evacuation area is
identified in our school we been the event the local
communities will victims of this calamities therefore the
school is open to them to cater them. In regards of an
earthquake the DepEd order as mandated in the department
of education that earthquake drill should be conducted
every quarter that’s why children are oriented as well as
teachers not only our DRR coordinators, they are oriented
of what to do during an earthquake the same like also the
fire our school also regularly conducting a fire drill like
those orienting pupils “Do’s and Don’ts” in case of fire in
our school.
P4. First of all, San Jose Gusu is not experiencing a
landslide, because we don’t have mountain are here we
only experiencing flood, earthquake and fire. We don’t
have tsunami drill. First of all also our school administrator
is ready to support in terms DRRM and regards with aid of
administrator our principal supporting in any Aids we need
in our DRRM program specially the sound system
decimation of information and other matters needed. In
terms of flood we have an earthquake drill honest is
goodness our school is use for evacuation center. I think
that is the one way that we supporting the barangay of the
DRRM.

P5. First of all, were not prone here the landslide and flood
our preparedness here is the earthquake and fire only
disaster. First, during the calamities we have a training we
have a quarterly an earthquake drill we observe the time
measure while they evacuating to the safe area and also we
oriented the pupils if there is an earthquake drill, what is
the sign of the sound. Because if there is calamities there is
a different signs of alarm like the fire the sound is strait
why we do it quarterly so that the student knows the sign
of the earthquake drill and fire. If there is tendency will
happen the pupils and teachers knows the evacuation area
because we also have an emergency signs.

P6. Here in our school, yearly before we implement in aids

and strategies we conducted workshop, seminars and
orientation quarterly for the pupils and teachers so here in
our school since we didn’t experiencing a landslide usually
we conducted a drills.

P7. Actually before it will happen in our school, we have

an earthquake drill because we are not expecting something
that go beyond in our control that’s why we conducting a
drill so if ever it will happen in our school so we know what
to do we have two exits so we all have male teachers doing
the works and then how the works given by them. Then fire
also that’s why we have a fire drill because if there is a fire,
we press the bottom for fire awareness. We have also an
orientation conducted also the teachers we come up a group
orientation so that they can also orient their pupils in
classroom we conducted a fire drill that’s why we run until
in the trade high way and there is a casualties so far, we
didn’t experiencing calamities but we always prepared for
this disaster and also we have here a member of red cross
we have medicines and first aid kit were it is ready they
provided a kit to us for us to be prepare.
 P8 the school implement the aids and strategies by
conducting Pre and Post drills to the pupils, teachers, and
admin.

Table 2 shows the Implementation of aids and strategies during the calamities in Baliwasan

District. Participants 1 and 3 said that:

“Earthquake and Fire as long as the tsunami and landslide they didn’t experience that kind of
hazard in Baliwasan Central and also a flood so in terms of strategies implemented by the school
for the three mention such as earthquake tsunami and fire, they usually conducted an orientation
to the parents, pupils and stakeholders and also to the teachers at the same time, they also
conducted an earthquake drill four times in a year and also crafted contingency plan for
earthquake, for the fire, and for the tsunami and then every year also they evaluated the
contingency plan.
“Only those of the calamities prone to the school include landslide, earthquake and fire. Like
landslide, they always identify the evacuation area if this thing will happen impossible the
evacuation area is identified in their school they been the event the local communities will victims
of this calamities therefore the school is open to them to cater. In regards of an earthquake the
DepEd order as mandated in the department of education that earthquake drill should be
conducted every quarter that’s why children are oriented as well as teachers not only the DRR
coordinators, they also oriented of what to do during an earthquake the same also the fire that
school also regularly conducting a fire drill like those orienting pupils “Do’s and Don’ts” in case
of fire in their school”.

In addition, Participants 4 and 5 said that:

“San Jose Gusu is not experiencing a landslide, because they don’t have mountain they only
experiencing flood, earthquake and fire. They don’t have tsunami drill. First of all also the school
administrator is ready to support in terms DRRM and regards with aid of administrator the
principal support in any Aids they need in their DRRM program specially the sound system
decimation of information and other matters needed. In terms of flood they have an earthquake
drill. They think that the one way that support from the barangay of the DRRM. First of all, they
not prone in the landslide and flood they prepared in the earthquake and fire only. First, during
the calamities they have a training they have a quarterly an earthquake drill they observe the time
measure while they evacuating to the safe area and also they oriented the pupils if there is an
earthquake drill, what is the sign of the sound. Because if there is calamities there is a different
signs of alarm like the fire the sound is strait why they do it quarterly so that the student knows the
sign of the earthquake drill and fire. If there is a tendency will happen the pupils and teachers
knows the evacuation area because they also have an emergency signs”.

However, Participants 2, 5, 6, 7 and 8 emphasized that:

“Usually they focus on the most common which is the earthquake, and possible of tsunami because
of the location, they focus in implementation of the strategies to address the impossible disasters
and also in terms of the aid, they also ready like first aid kit, materials of the DRR like spine board
for the responses of the disaster so they do also a drills just like what they do so it is effective when
they conducted it during that time it successfully executed properly the earthquake drill. Yearly
before they implemented in aids and strategies they conducted workshop, seminars and orientation
quarterly for the pupils and teachers so in their school since they didn’t experiencing a landslide
usually they conducted a drills. Actually before it will happen they have an earthquake drill
because they are not expecting something that go beyond in their control that’s why they
conducting a drill so if ever there is a calamities in school they know what to do there are two exits
and they have male teachers doing the work and on how the works given by them. And fire also
they have a fire drill if ever there is a fire, only need to do is to press the bottom for fire awareness.
They have also an orientation conducted to the teachers they come up a group orientation so that
they can also orient their pupils in classroom they conducted a fire drill. They didn’t experiencing
calamities but they always prepared for this disaster and also they have a member of red-cross
they have medicines and first aid kit were it is ready they provided a kit to be prepared. The school
implement the aids and strategies by conducting Pre and Post drills to the pupils, teachers, and to
the admin”.

In summary, the school administrators should support the Implementation of Disaster Risk

Reduction management in school. And orient the pupils and teachers about the disaster risk

reduction awareness.

In conclusion, by this implementation of the aids and strategies during the calamities, it

will help the students, teachers, stakeholders and administrators aware about the calamities by

reducing disaster risks confronting the education sector and achieve the Department of Education’s
(DepEd) outcomes, namely: access, quality and governance. The ongoing implementation of these

pillars is aligned with DepEd’s commitment to the four thematic areas of the Philippine DRRM

Act of 2010, otherwise known as RA 10121.

It implies that the Baliwasan District is implementing the aids and strategies during

the calamities.

Table 3

Implementing policies regarding calamities

Problem 2 Respondent

How do the administrator
implement the policies regarding
the following calamities
P1 As I said earlier we had only the three such as earthquake,
tsunami and fire, all of this the policy regarding the
calamities we only implement this on the contingency plan
so whatever our contingency plan we go for it for our
implementation when the hazards occur, we go for our
contingency plan.

P2 Here in our school the possible will happen usually is the

Fire and an Earthquake we introducing like emergency
scape plan, then we have a sign and signal here in case if
there is a calamities, usually we do the alarm and we
conducted a different trainings so far now we didn’t have
concrete of the strategies specially doing a seminars because
the DRRM are not fully structured although there are people
who doing their task.

P3 In terms of policies as I had said, orientation are provided

to pupils as long as the descriptions we include it in our
curriculum as part of the learning of our school children in
terms of the risk reduction management in our local
community.

P4 Our Principal also deplaned the following calamities our

training for example we have is in-service training I have
trainings with the red cross. I personally attended the
training of first Aid training. And then every quarter we are
doing or participating the earthquake drill, four times a year.
 P5 First we have call the “Action Plan” we used the action
plan me as the DRR coordinator I make the action plan but,
I ask first the Principal if that plan is ok if he approving that
plan, we distributed this plan to the teachers so that they
aware of what they will be going to do in case if there is
calamities. Like also the programs and trainings every year
we ask what we need. We also requested to train the pupils
and teachers on how to use a fire distinguisher so that the
pupils will also know on how to apply it in field of
calamities.

P6 So actually, regarding in the implementation of the

policies, we usually of what we have in our guidelines so
during in the orientation, we come up a guidelines sample
checklist. Because during in the brigade eskwela, we
distrusted to the teachers of a checklist what to do, what to
expect, so in this way we already implemented the DRRM
policy. After the checklist, we followed an orientation about
this. So all our plan we coordinate it to the Baliwasan
district.

P7 It has been implemented every year, actually in a year,

twice we implement this plan because to be considered we
are prone to the sea to experience a tsunami that’s why all
of the teachers are aware of what to do during the calamities.

P8 flood, cater the casualties and give food and clothing.

Earthquake, Pre and Post Drill to the pupil’s teachers and
admin. Fire, pre and post drills.

Table 3 shows the Implementing policies regarding calamities in Baliwasan District. Participants

2, 5 and 6 said that:

“In school, the possible will happen usually is the Fire and an Earthquake they introducing like
emergency scape plan, then they have a sign and signal in case if there is a calamities, usually
they do the alarm and they conducted a different trainings so far they didn’t have concrete of the
strategies specially doing a seminars because the DRRM are not fully structured although their’
are people who doing their task. They have an “Action Plan” they used the action plan because
as the DRR coordinator they make the action plan but, they ask first the Principal if that plan is

what they will be going to do in case if there is calamities. Like also the programs and trainings
every year they ask what they needs. They also requested to train the pupils and teachers on how
to use a fire distinguisher so that the pupils will also know on how to apply it in field of calamities.
So actually, regarding in the implementation of the policies, they usually have in their’ guidelines
so during in the orientation, they come up a guidelines sample checklist. Because during in the
“Brigada Eskwela”, they distrusted to the teachers of a checklist what to do, what to expect, so in
this way they already implemented the DRRM policy. After the checklist, they following an
orientation about this. And all of their plan they coordinate it to the Baliwasan District”.

In addition, Participants 1 and 4 said that:

“They only had the three such as earthquake, tsunami and fire, all of this the policy regarding the
calamities they only implement this on the contingency plan so whatever their’ contingency plan
they go for it for their’ implementation when the hazards occur, they go to their’ contingency plan.
Their Principal also deplaned the following calamities their’ training for example they have is in-
service training with the red-cross. They personally attended the training of first Aid training. And
then every quarter they are doing or participating the earthquake drill, four times a year”.
However, Participants 3, 7 and 8 emphasized that:
“In terms of policies as what they said, orientation are provided to pupils as long as the
descriptions they include it in our curriculum as part of the learning of their’ schools children in
terms of the risk reduction management in their’ local community. It has been implemented every
year, actually in a year, twice they implement this plan because to be considered they are prone
to the sea to experience a tsunami that’s why all of the teachers are aware of what to do during
the calamities. Flood, cater the casualties and give food and clothing. Earthquake, Pre and Post
Drill to the pupil’s teachers and admin. Fire, pre and post drills”.

In summary, the school administrators supported the Implementation about the DRRM

policies regarding calamities. And it implement the Action Plan through effective awareness in

disaster.

In conclusion, by implementing this policies regarding the calamities in Baliwasan District,

it will help the students, teachers, stakeholders and administrators aware about the calamities by

reducing disaster risks confronting the education sector and achieve the Department of Education’s

(DepEd) outcomes, namely: access, quality and governance. The ongoing implementation of these

pillars is aligned with DepEd’s commitment to the four thematic areas of the Philippine DRRM

Act of 2010, otherwise known as RA 10121.

 It implies that the Baliwasan District is implementing the DRRM policy regarding the

calamities.

Recommendation to the casualties after calamities

Problem 3 Respondents

What are the recommendation
given to the casualties after the
calamities
P1 Actually so far we don’t have yet calamities for the last
ten years so but we have prepared to give cost medical
assistance, kit that calamities if occur, and we recommend
to the casualties of that calamities to be part of a drills in
all hazards so that we will know what to do in terms of the
calamities.

P2 So we didn’t experience this one but, we prepared on

this like we have our first aid responder specially our nurses
the teachers they are all chain doing and performing the
first aid kits in case if there is a casualties and that is and
after that, contact to the proper authorities either in
hospital.

P3 In regards to the recommendation, with the help of the

barangay officials and other NGO’s, local official’s victims
of calamities are given counseling as basic needs in times
of calamities.

P4 Example if there are evacuates in our school, so the

DSWD with the support of barangay council they are the
one who giving a supply to the casualties.

P5 If ever there is an earthquake, our school is ready for the

evacuation center because we have an open court and also
the teachers volunteering their self to serve in case of the

P7 The recommendation given to the casualties like for

example if there is no power in the first aid, “Tarang” the
one who executing the CPR last-last year here in school we
provided a medicine and first aid kit so if the patient was
very critical, we recommend the patient to go in the hospital
because we have a near hospitals here like Brent and
General Hospital.

P8 always have a present mind, all necessary things

needed to be used in time of calamities

Table 4 shows the Recommendation to the casualties after calamities in Baliwasan District.

Participants 1, 2 and 5 said that:

“Actually so far some of the schools they don’t have yet calamities for the last ten years so but
they have prepared to give cost medical assistance, kit that calamities if occur, and they
recommend to the casualties of that calamities to be part of a drills in all hazards so that they will

Table 5

Policies and program supported by the government in DRRM

Problem 4 Responses

How do the city officials help
and support the policies and
program for the DRRM
implemented by the public
school
P1 Actually the only support that the city to our school is the
monitoring of the DRR hazards.
P2 We are mandated to conduct a national simultaneous drill
so it is not also all about the earthquake but it can be through
all calamities so we are required to conduct every quarter.

P3 As far as I know, local officials, city officials are they are

come to school ask for some trainings, orientation, drill even
 the advocacy they are welcome in any respond if the service
team requested the lecture maybe or orientation.

P4 Together with the City official’s, with the help of the

DSWD office, they are really giving a support in our school
in the way of the teachers should be aware about the DRRM
program. Last the month of May, they come in our school
and we suggested we hope all trainings regarding about the
DRRM conduct a basic life support training or program. I
think there is a budget and support from the City officials
for policies and program about DRRM. In all public schools,
the DepEd was very supportive.

P5 Like I said earlier, in case if there is an earthquake drill,

there is an evaluator like from barangay because they are the
one who knows of what we need in case if there is calamities
like they suggested that to add emergency sign age. We ask
some support from our barangay officials.

P6 Actually the barangay they only workout if our school

will request something to them if we will not going to
request they will not be giving any support in our school.

P7 The government given us support if ever we ask a

support to them. Infact this building is from the government.

P8 the firemen demonstrate on how to prevent/prepared in

time of calamities

Table 5 shows the Policies and program supported by the government in DRRM in Baliwasan

District. Participants 1, 3 and 6 said that:

“Actually the only support that the city to the school is the monitoring of the DRR hazards. As far
as they know, local officials, city officials are they are come to school ask for some trainings,
orientation, drill even the advocacy they are welcome in any respond if the service team requested
the lecture maybe or orientation. Actually the barangay they only workout if our school will
request something to them if we will not going to request they will not be giving any support in
their’ school”.
In addition, Participants 2, 5 and 8 said that:
“They are mandated to conduct a national simultaneous drill so it is not also all about the
earthquake but it can be through all calamities so they are required to conduct every quarter. Like
they said earlier, in case if there is an earthquake drill, there is an evaluator like from barangay
because they are the one who knows of what the need of the school in case if there is calamities
like they suggested that to add emergency sign age. They ask some support from our barangay

However, Participants 4 and 7 emphasized that:

“Together with the City official’s, with the help of the DSWD office, they are really giving a
support in their’ school in the way of the teachers should be aware about the DRRM program.
Last the month of May, they go to the school and they suggested were they hope all trainings
regarding about the DRRM conduct a basic life support training or program. They think there is
a budget and support from the City officials for policies and program about DRRM. In all public
schools, the DepEd was very supportive. The government given us support if ever we ask a support
to them. In fact the building is from the government”.
In summary, the school administrators implement the policies and program supported by

the government in DRRM in Baliwasan District. And the government was very supported in terms

to the implementation of the policy in DRRM.

In conclusion, programs given by the government to the schools, was very helpful to train

the students and teachers on what to do during the calamities. And by this program, it will help the

schools to reduce the risk disaster.
