[Asia Economy Reporter Jong-il Park] Seongbuk-gu (Mayor Lee Seung-ro) introduces customized 2022 admission support strategies by grade for parents and examinees in the context of sharing knowledge for career and college admission guidance information support and educational development through the signing of a career and admission cooperation agreement with the Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education’s specialized educational policy research institution, the Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education Research and Information Center.

Residents wishing to attend the lectures can apply from 10 a.m. on the 26th through the Seongbuk-gu Office website’s online lecture application or the recruitment lecture bulletin board.

Parents and examinees who apply for ‘Understanding the 2022 College Admission Process’ for high school seniors will attend the lecture by accessing the lecture link sent only to pre-registered participants from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. on March 24.

This briefing session for high school seniors who need to prepare seriously for college admission will be conducted by instructor Yoon Sang-hyung, currently a teacher at Yeongdong High School, providing information on the 2022 admission direction and characteristics of the college admission process.

Similarly, the ‘High School 1st and 2nd Grade Parents’ College Admission Guide (3 lectures)’ for 1st and 2nd graders will be held on March 16, 23, and 30 from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m., accessible via lecture links sent only to pre-registered participants.

This special lecture for parents, aimed at 1st and 2nd grade students and parents who are beginning practical admission preparation but may be struggling with basic understanding, will be conducted under the theme ‘High School 1st and 2nd Grade Parents’ College Admission Guide’ in a total of three lectures.

In Lecture 1, instructor Kim Seon-wook, a teacher at Seoul High School, will present ‘Basic Guidance for 1st and 2nd Grade Children’s Academic Progress’; in Lecture 2, instructor Lee Jae-young, a teacher at Myeonmok High School, will cover ‘Changes and Preparation for 2023-24 College Admissions’; and in Lecture 3, instructor Kim Yong-jin, a teacher at Dongdaebu Girls’ High School, will provide ‘Strategic Subject Selection Methods,’ offering in-depth information.

With the college admission process being very diverse and it being difficult to find the right process for each student, and the burden caused by using high-cost private admission consulting services deepening educational disparities, Seongbuk-gu Office’s efforts are greatly helping students and parents by strengthening public education competitiveness and reducing private education expenses.

A representative from the Seongbuk Youth Future Support Center stated, "It is important to establish customized admission strategies in preparation for the changed CSAT and college admission process in the 2022 academic year," and encouraged many interested parents and students to participate.
