During the drill, the fire fighting team used on-site fire fighting equipment ( _CO2 extinguisher, AB fire extinguisher), the building's fire water system, discharged pipes, installed nozzles, connected pipes and opened water discharge valves to extinguish the fire while operating the building's fire pump system. The on-site force also rescued and provided first aid to victims, and moved property out of the fire area.

In addition, staff and teachers were also introduced and instructed on how to use fire extinguishers properly and quickly to achieve the highest efficiency.

Rescue forces arrive at the scene. The main content of this stage is that rescue forces and police vehicles arrive at the scene to conduct search and rescue operations for victims. The cooperation between the school and the police ensures that rescue measures are implemented effectively and quickly.
