The Gyeonggi Provincial Office of Education operates the 'Student Customized Fitness Improvement Health Dream School' to enhance the physical fitness of students with low stamina.

The Health Dream School is a school that runs a student-led health and fitness management program based on the Physical Activity Promotion System (PAPS) and supports health in cooperation with local public health centers and fitness certification centers. There are a total of 170 schools in the province, including 76 elementary schools, 62 middle schools, and 32 high schools.

The Health Dream School currently operates programs such as ▲ exercise tailored to each student's individual level ▲ nutrition education for healthy eating habits ▲ disease prevention education programs.

The school first conducts the Physical Activity Promotion System evaluation, based on which the Health Dream School policy promotion team provides customized prescriptions in the areas of physical education, nutrition, and health.

The physical education teachers collaborate with schools, local fitness certification centers, and sports centers to support student-customized fitness improvement through anaerobic and aerobic exercise programs according to fitness levels.

Nutrition teachers practice nutrition counseling and healthful eating education linked to the curriculum, while health teachers run student-led campaigns and foster desirable habits for disease prevention. In particular, 45 Health Dream Schools operate the Health Dream - Fitness Improvement Festival.

Sung Jeong-hyun, Director of Physical Education and Health at the Provincial Office of Education, promised, "We will support students with declining health and fitness levels to participate in the integrated physical education, health, and nutrition programs of the Health Dream School so that customized fitness improvement can be achieved."
