COMPREHENSIVE SCHOOL SAFETY MONITORING

This school level Comprehensive School Safety Monitoring Tool is aligned with the Sendai Framework for DRR (SFDRR) and the global Comprehensive School Safety
Framework (CSSF) developed by the UN International Strategy for Disaster Reduction (UNISDR). As a signatory of the SFDRR, the Philippine Government is expected to report
to the UNISDR its accomplishment in implementing the SFDRR. In line with this, the Department of Education is required to report its accomplishment in implementing Disaster
Risk, Reduction and Management (DRRM) School Safety to the National DRRM Council (NDRRMC) as a member of the said council, and in accordance to RA 10121
(Philippine DRRM Act of 2010) which reflects the country’s commitment to SFDRR.

This school level Comprehensive School Safety Monitoring Tool aims to:
1) establish the baseline with respect to the implementation of the 3 pillars of DepEd’s Comprehensive DRRM in Education Framework (DO 37, s. 2015);
2) Set the school’s DRRM targets for 3v years, based on the baseline;
3) Track the annual progress of the school with respect to its targets.

This is primarily for the use of the School DRRM Team whose members are expected to facilitate the completion of this monitoring tool. The Head of the SDRRM Team shall
submit the completed forms with the signature of the School Head to the Division DRRM Coordinator. The Division DRR Coordinator is expected to orient the SDRRM Team on
how this tool is going to be filled up, monitor the completion of schools and consolidate the results using the template also provided by DRRMS Central Office. The consolidated
results shall be submitted to the Division DRRM Coordinator to the DRRMS Central Office in __________ of the current school year.

The 1st column indicates the particular Priority for Action in the SFDRR that are related to the Targets of the global CSSF in the 2 nd column. The 3rd column indicates DepEd’s
Comprehensive School Safety indicators at the school level that are related to columns 1 and 2. The school level DepEd indicators are based on the Department’s Disaster Risk
Reduction and Management (DRRM) policies and the school manual (SDRRM). The 4 th column sets the baseline of the school with respect to DepEd’s indicators in the 3 rd
column. Supporting evidences, such as documents, should be provided by the School DRRM Team to the Division DRRM Coordinator. The 5 th column sets the targets/plans of the
school based on its baseline. The remaining columns will be accomplished by the school on an annual basis to indicate progress against the targets set for 3 years.
