[Asia Economy Reporter Hyunju Lee] The Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education announced on the 11th that it will reduce the number of public middle and high school teachers, as well as health, librarian, nutrition, professional counseling, and special education teachers to be selected next year by nearly half compared to this year.
The Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education stated that it will pre-announce on the 12th through its website the subjects and number of candidates to be selected for the competitive examination for appointment candidates, as well as the exam schedule.
The total number of candidates to be selected is 461 across 28 subjects. This includes 341 middle school teachers and 120 health, librarian, nutrition, professional counseling, and special school teachers. This is a reduction of 422 people (47.8%) compared to last year's recruitment number of 883.
By category, the number of middle school teachers has decreased by 321 (48.5%) compared to last year. Additionally, 21 special education teachers for middle schools, 45 health teachers, 6 librarian teachers, and 25 professional counseling teachers will be selected. The number of nutrition teachers to be selected is expected to remain the same as last year at 23.
The Office of Education explained that this reflects the Ministry of Education’s provisional quota allocation, teachers’ retirement and honorary retirement, and reductions in the number of students and classes. They also added that this year, for the first time, they plan to select 2 environmental teachers.
