Bataan PEO inspects school facilities

In line with its mandate to provide engineering services to local government units, the Provincial Engineer’s Office (PEO), in coordination with the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) District 1, 2 and 3, City and Municipal Engineering Offices, conducted a province-wide infrastructure assessment and structural integrity evaluation in all public schools in Bataan last October 16 and 17.

The coordinated effort was initiated upon the request of the Department of Education (DepEd) – Schools Division Office of Bataan.

Said inspection aimed to assess the current condition, safety and structural integrity of school facilities and to identify buildings that require immediate repair or rehabilitation to ensure the safety and well-being of students and personnel, particularly during times of natural disasters and other emergencies.

This collaborative undertaking reflects the province’s ongoing commitment to ensuring safe learning environments and enhancing disaster preparedness across all educational institutions.
