The Schools Division Office of Mabalacat City successfully conducted the Division Roll-Out of the Strengthening Resilience: PlanSmart for Safe Schools (PSSS) Web Application on May 19–21, 2026, at the Gabaldon Hall, Mabalacat Elementary School. The activity gathered school heads, DRRM coordinators, and key personnel from public elementary and secondary schools to strengthen capacities in risk-informed planning and disaster resilience.

Participants were oriented on the features and functionalities of the PSSS Web Application and engaged in hands-on sessions covering school profiling, hazard and exposure assessment, disaster and restoration history documentation, stakeholder mapping, critical
facilities inventory, and action planning.

The training also emphasized the importance of evidence-based School Contingency Plans and the integration of disaster risk reduction and climate change adaptation measures into school planning processes.

Through collaborative learning and practical application, participants enhanced their skills in utilizing digital tools to support data-driven decision-making, preparedness planning, and resilience-building initiatives. The activity reinforces the commitment of the Department of Education and the Schools Division Office of Mabalacat City to creating safer, more resilient, and disaster-ready learning environments for all learners and education stakeholders.
