- Review the system of green trees, walls, fences, and school gates and adopt schemes to prune branches and prevent wall collapse and falling trees. Prioritize inspecting schools and educational institutions near rivers, springs, and areas at risk of flooding and landslides to warn or stop students from going to school in unsafe cases. 

- Ensure the timely supply of necessities and teaching equipment to affected educational institutions. Organize psychological support for teachers and students affected by the storm, especially families suffering damage to humans and property. 

- Intensify cooperation with local authorities in rescuing and remedying the post-storm consequences, especially support for families of teachers and students suffering severe damage. 

- Adopt plans to prepare physical facilities, equipment, utensils, and necessities for students of semi-boarding and boarding schools to ensure safety, thoughtfulness, and convenience for students. 

- Summarize damage and solutions to remedy and handling and send them to competent authorities and submit detailed reports to the Ministry of Education and Training of Vietnam before September 15, 2024 according to the following address: Educational Facilities, Equipment and Children’s Toy Department, Ministry of Education and Training of Vietnam – 35 Dai Co Viet, Hai Ba Trung District, Hanoi (contact person: Mr. Tran Gia Khanh, specialist of the Educational Facilities, Equipment and Children’s Toy Department, phone number 0917710440) for summary and reports to the Government of Vietnam.
