This study determined the Level of Awareness and Preparedness of Naga

College Foundation, Inc. Basic Education Department Community to Disaster and

Emergency Response.

This study employed a descriptive-correlational survey research method

which involved questionnaire and examination of past records and publications.

Statistical tools used to treat the data were percentage technique, weighted

mean and Likert Scale.

 vii

This study showed that all interpreted by the respondents which were

mostly “Very Much Aware” this means that the School has done great in

informing the students and the faculty of BED Community. This study also

revealed that Basic Education Department in Disaster and Emergency Response

mandates in regarding School Activities in any emergency showed that all the

respondents agreed on all the said school activities for Disaster and Emergency

Response.

The intervention programs were beneficial in the awareness and

preparedness of the school and students in Disaster and Emergency.

It recommends that school may cooperate to Naga City Disaster Risk

Reduction Management or other agency to promote Disaster Risk Reduction

Management like Bureau of Fire Protection that could help them in case of

emergency.

Results showed that not only the experience as the prime factor to

enhance awareness. Education, when confined to school education, can

provide useful information as the knowledge on earthquake, fire, bomb

threats and natural disaster. However, in the gradual path of knowing,

realizing, deepening, decision and action, family, community, and self-

education was found to be more prominent. While, self-education was

important for realizing and deepening, family and community education play

the most vital role for decision and actions. In school education, more active
 viii

ways of disaster education through conversation, experiencing, and visual

aids are found to be more effective. It was believed that school education,

coupled with self, family and community education can help a student to

develop a “culture of disaster preparedness”, which, in turn, will urge them to

take right decisions and actions as an adult.
