![Page 10: Seeking Support for Schools & Students in flood effected areas in Mahabubnagar District Palamoor NRI Forum,259 Steeplechase Cir, Wilmington,](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022110319/56649c725503460f94924028/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
ABOUT SCHOOLS' DAMAGE Most schools in affected areas are being used as temporary shelters. There are reports of school
books, writing and reading materials being washed away. In some places, school buildings are damaged (15 school buildings; mainly kutcha). Local teachers say that schools would resume only after restoration of infrastructure and cleaning of mud which is almost 5 to 10ft in height.
Recommendations By Experts Committee
• A proper assessment of schools and children IDPs to be carried out and identify class-wise school going children staying in relief camps and temporary sites. School buildings should be assessed for the damage to the structures.
• Restore education through supply of text books, note books, study materials (e.g. slates, pens, pencils etc.) to school going children.
• Continuity of schools in camps and temporary sites needs to be ensured by involving NGOs and other volunteers. Alternately, the District Administration can depute teacher-trainees to these centers to revive schooling.
• Promotion of hygiene-education and play-way learning can be initiated in these camp-based schools.
• Once the temporary camps are closed, cleaning of surroundings and sanitization to be carried out.
• Renovate the damaged school buildings before reusing them.
