The Office of Education has continuously worked to secure teacher quotas and new teacher recruitment numbers since last year, in cooperation with the provincial council, parents, and teacher organizations, following Superintendent Kim Dae-jung’s determination to stabilize school educational activities by securing teacher quotas and new teacher recruitment numbers.

As a result, despite the government’s policy to reduce public servant quotas, the secondary school teacher recruitment numbers for next year have been secured at a scale similar to this year.

Superintendent Kim Dae-jung stated, “To provide our precious children with a higher level of educational environment, securing teachers must come first. We will continue to work with Jeonnam’s educational community to secure teacher quotas and new teacher recruitment numbers to improve the quality of education in Jeonnam.”
