Gyeongbuk Provincial Office of Education Operates All-Day Care 'GoodSense' ... Linked with Local Government Care Institutions

Recruitment of 30 Participating Organizations Until the 22nd

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Park Dong-wook] The Gyeongbuk Provincial Office of Education announced on the 15th that it will hold a public recruitment for institutions to participate in the village-based regional specialized care project called 'Good Sense' until the 22nd, aiming to eliminate blind spots in after-school care for elementary school students.

Good Sense is an abbreviation of Good Center-School, meaning 'Good Child Center and School.' It is a project in which elementary schools and local government care institutions collaborate to establish an all-day care system.

Since signing a business agreement between the Gyeongbuk Office of Education and the Gyeongbuk Provincial Government in October 2017, this care public recruitment project has been continuously promoted for three years starting in 2018. This year, participation will be expanded to include elementary schools, local children's centers, and Dahamkke Care Centers, selecting a total of 30 teams and providing support of 8 to 12 million KRW per team.

Along with operating regionally specialized experience programs and emergency care, if a student in care is found to be in crisis and requires special support, additional living support and case management will be provided.

Superintendent Lim Jong-sik emphasized, "As the saying goes, it takes a whole village to raise a child, so active participation and cooperation between schools and local government care institutions are essential," adding, "We will actively strive to provide safe and high-quality care services to all children in need of care."

Meanwhile, the Gyeongbuk Office of Education supported 388.35 million KRW for program operations last year, involving 30 elementary schools in 13 regions within the province and 34 local children's centers forming linked teams with 1,014 participants.
