School children are one of the most vulnerable during an earthquake. As such, it is important for teachers to guide the students on how to properly conduct an earthquake drill. They are the ones who will teach students how to protect themselves. Earthquake drills are simple and easy to do. It only requires planning ahead and constant practice

During a damaging earthquake, life-protecting actions must be taken immediately. There will not be time to decide what to do next; everyone must already know how to react appropriately. After an earthquake, further life-protecting actions such as emergency evacuation or first aid administration may be necessary; well-trained staff and students will guarantee that these crucial steps are taken as quickly as possible.
