 SYNTHESIS
 All school heads / principals and DRRM team members should be aware of DO 37, s.
2015 and all other DRRM and CC related policies of DepEd. The said DO contributes in
the achievement of desired education outcomes, namely, access, quality and governance.
 It is important that all schools anchor their risk reduction and resilience builidng
initiatives on the Comprehensive DRRM in Education Framework as per DO 37, s. 2015.
 It is imperative for risk reduction and resilience building that schools move towards
implementing a comprehensive school safety plan, one that integrates the four key
thematic areas of RA 10121 and the three pillars of the CSS Framework, as reflected in
DO 37, s. 2015.
 A DRRM-CCAM Plan should be developed by schools annually, with appropriate budget
support. The Plan should reflect localization of DRRM and CC related policies of DepEd.
 The DRRM-CCAM Plan should clearly contribute in the achievement of desired
education outcomes which are: access, quality and governance.
