The Future Talent Division of the Education Bureau was reorganized into the "Future Education Division" under the Policy Bureau, and the Innovation Education Division of the Policy Bureau was reorganized into the "Education Autonomy Division" to overcome the imminent regional extinction crisis based on public-private-industry-academia cooperation and to implement Jeonnam-type educational autonomy that coexists with the region.

The newly established "Career Education Division" in the Education Bureau plans to establish a customized integrated support system for career, college admission, and jobs together with regional career and college counseling centers.

In addition, through the establishment of new teams, efforts will be focused on strengthening functions for major issues such as building future educational environments including big data and AI learning, and after-school care.

Directly affiliated institutions will change their names overall. By attaching "Jeollanam-do Office of Education" to the institution names, the identity of educational institutions will be established, and to vitalize the core policy of reading education, the school library support function of regional base libraries will be strengthened.

Education support offices have expanded the Health and Meal Team to support school environmental hygiene and meal services, and the Informatization Support Team to support school information tasks. In addition, the number of specialized personnel for school violence has been increased to enhance the substance of school violence prevention education and the reconciliation and mediation functions.

Superintendent Kim Dae-jung expressed gratitude to the Jeonnam Provincial Council for supporting this organizational restructuring, saying, "For the bright future of students, the local community and the educational community will work together to advance the great transformation of Jeonnam education."

Meanwhile, the organizational restructuring of the Jeonnam Provincial Office of Education, which has been promoted since August last year through the operation of the "Organizational Restructuring TF," will be implemented on the 1st of the upcoming month.
