[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Jun-kyung] Jeonnam Provincial Office of Education announced on the 15th that it held the ‘Education Support Office Wee Center Council’ at the Gokseong Education Support Office Wee Center, attended by 22 specialized counselors from cities and counties.

This council was held to discuss and provide guidance on school counseling support measures and systematic and professional psychological support following the resumption of in-person classes on the 14th.

The ‘Education Support Office Wee Center’ is a counseling institution established at the education support office level to provide diagnostic-counseling-healing customized services for crisis students and school maladjusted students who are difficult to lead and heal at individual schools.

Due to the delay in in-person classes, the Wee Center has been helping students maintain psychological stability in their home life through home correspondence, online counseling, home visit counseling, and delivering supplies to students with psychological difficulties, enabling students to smoothly carry out their studies during online classes.

Also, by designating a person in charge within the Wee Center, they protect students who are victims of school violence and crisis students, continuously providing psychological and emotional support to relieve psychological anxiety.

A teacher who participated in the training said, “It was a meaningful opportunity to share various school counseling support measures by city and county,” and added, “We will thoroughly prepare in advance so that all students can go to school with peace of mind.”

Lee Byung-sam, Director of Democratic Citizen Life Education Division, said, “We are grateful to be able to support through various activities of the regional Wee Centers during these difficult times such as online classes and delayed in-person classes due to COVID-19,” and added, “The Provincial Office of Education will spare no administrative and financial support for life guidance and student safety so that our students can live healthily during in-person classes.”
