He explained that the Dapodik reporting operator was a person appointed by the school. His job is to report the condition of the school every month. In carrying out their duties this operator is equipped with supporting equipment.

"Equipment and infrastructure in each school already exist, the most constraint is the internet network, but this can be done from other places such as from other villages that already have an internet network or from the operator's house," he explained.

Meanwhile, the repair of damaged schools in Rejang Lebong Regency this year will be carried out using the Special Allocation Fund (DAK) for education in the amount of Rp. 20 billion.
