Following the eruption of Anak Krakatau, educational institutions in the West Java and Banten regions transitioned to remote learning due to declining air quality and volcanic ash. 

In Bogor, schools resumed in-person instruction after air quality levels stabilized, with local officials inspecting facilities to ensure student safety. Subsequently, the Banten Provincial Education and Culture Office issued a directive for educational units to resume in-person learning starting September 14, 2026. Authorities have instructed schools to monitor air quality regularly and maintain contingency plans in the event of increased volcanic activity.
