Quezon City is deploying over 100 policemen for its comprehensive program aimed at ensuring the safety and security of students, parents and the entire community.

This is how QCPD Director P/Brig. Gen. Redrico Maranan, activated the "Oplan

Ligtas-Eskwela," a proactive project made to deal with a variety of issues that may arise during the school season, such as traffic management, public safety, and emergency response.

"On 2 October 2023, our dedicated officers launched this initiative by deploying 82 personnel to various schools in Quezon City. This number increased to 107 personnel on 9 October 2023, and was followed by 71 personnel on 16 October 2023. This substantial presence demonstrates our proactive approach to ensure the safety and security of all," Maranan said.

"Through this program, QCPD officers provide police presence to deter criminal activity and provide immediate assistance when needed. They can also educate students about personal safety, emergency procedures, and the importance of adhering to traffic rules. These educational programs aim to instill a culture of responsibility and awareness among students," he added.

"The QCPD is unwavering in its commitment in ensuring the safety and well-being of students, parents, and the entire community during Oplan Ligtas-Eskwela. Our mission is to create a secure, hassle-free, and positive experience for everyone throughout the school year," Maranan said.
