Damyang Office of Education Supports Selection of External Instructors for Elementary and Middle School After-School Programs

[Damyang=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Chunsu] The Damyang Office of Education School Support Center announced on the 18th that it has completed the selection process for 110 external instructors for elementary and middle school after-school programs across 130 programs, starting with the recruitment announcement on January 3rd.

The selection of external instructors was conducted through a total of five recruitment announcements, with candidates chosen through document screening and interviews.

In particular, during the interview process, strict quarantine guidelines were followed by scheduling candidates at different times to ensure a safe environment.

For some programs that could not select instructors due to lack of applicants, the center plans to coordinate with the respective schools to either replace with internal instructors or change the program and issue additional announcements to ensure smooth operation of after-school programs.

Since 2019, the Damyang Office of Education has been playing a role in reducing the workload of frontline schools by managing after-school program operations centered on the center, including the selection of external instructors, instructor contracts, and payment of instructor fees.

Although after-school external instructors faced difficulties last year due to the COVID-19 virus, contrary to concerns, there was active support and no major difficulties; however, some programs that could not be selected due to regional circumstances remain as challenges.

A representative of the Damyang Office of Education School Support Center stated, “We will continue to closely communicate with schools and actively support the operation of elementary and middle school after-school programs. Considering the COVID-19 situation, we plan to conduct training sessions for the person in charge council and the selected instructors.”
