[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] Gangbuk-gu (Mayor Park Gyeom-su) is operating the 12th Dreamdong-i Preparatory School for children from multicultural families.

The Dreamdong-i Preparatory School has been running since 2011 to support the basic learning abilities of children from multicultural families and to help form healthy family relationships.

Here, basic academic guidance such as Korean and math is provided, along with child growth support programs including social development and career exploration activities. Since last year, programs that help foster positive family relationships by involving not only the children but also family members have been conducted together.

Any multicultural family with preschool children (ages 6-7) or lower-grade elementary school children (ages 8-9) can apply. Applicants must prepare the application form and resident registration certificate and visit the Gangbuk-gu Family Center to submit their documents.

On the 26th, an online orientation and entrance ceremony were held with the participation of children, parents, and teachers to inform them about the operation plan and preparations.

Starting from March 7th, classes such as Korean and math will officially begin with teachers composed of volunteers from Sungshin Women's University. Due to COVID-19, classes will be conducted online again this year as last year, although this may change depending on future circumstances.

Park Gyeom-su, Mayor of Gangbuk-gu, stated, “At the Dreamdong-i Preparatory School, children from multicultural families will be able to learn not only academic subjects like Korean and math but also about our country's culture.” He added, “Through this opportunity, we will wholeheartedly support multicultural children to demonstrate their capabilities as members of society and freely pursue their dreams.”
