The Gyeonggi Provincial Office of Education will hold a policy forum on institutionalizing parent education.

On the 20th, the Office announced that on the 21st, it will hold a policy forum on institutionalizing parent education at the conference room of the Suwon Southern Office to establish a legal and institutional foundation for parent education.

The forum, co-hosted with the Gyeonggi Provincial Council, was organized to gather opinions from the educational community on building a support system for parent education.

The keynote speakers at the forum include Lee In-sook, principal of Seongnam Girls' High School (on establishing a parent education system tailored to the growth stages of children in elementary, middle, and high school), and Lee Mi-young, senior research fellow at the Gyeonggi Education Research Institute (on analyzing conditions and implementation plans for introducing a parent school participation leave system).

Following this, Hwang Jin-hee, chairperson of the Education Planning Committee of the Provincial Council, will serve as the moderator, facilitating a discussion among panelists on ways to institutionalize parent education.

Participants will discuss ▲ the introduction and application of an integrated parent education system ▲ the establishment of a customized parent education system suitable for children's growth and developmental stages ▲ the necessity of introducing a parent school participation leave system ▲ and measures to activate parent participation in schools.

The Office of Education will broadcast the forum live through the YouTube channel ‘ChannelGO3’.

Jung Eun-ji, head of the Cooperation Support Division at the Office of Education, emphasized, "We hope this forum will be the first step toward institutionalizing parent education," adding, "We will strengthen the roles and responsibilities of parents so that students can develop proper character and grow healthily."

Meanwhile, based on the discussions at this forum, the Office plans to concretize the Gyeonggi-type parent education support system and establish the legal and institutional foundation for parent education.
