Lim Tae-hee, Superintendent of Gyeonggi Provincial Office of Education

The Gyeonggi Provincial Office of Education is accepting registrations for alternative education institutions in the second half of the year targeting unregistered educational facilities within the province.

Registration of alternative education institutions is a system that permits registration for educational facilities that meet certain criteria according to relevant laws to protect the learning rights and safety of students who have dropped out of school.

Unregistered educational facilities wishing to register can apply in person at the Gyeonggi Education Welfare Comprehensive Center on the 30th and 31st of this month, and at the Northern Office of Education from December 1st to 3rd. Required submission documents and Q&A materials related to registration can be found on the Office of Education’s website.

The Office of Education will conduct ▲on-site inspections ▲verification of various aspects such as curriculum, educational environment, and facilities ▲and review by the registration committee for the received applications, and will announce the registered institutions on its website in December.

Kim Young-hoon, Director of the Education Welfare Division at the Office of Education, stated, "This registration system grants legal status to alternative education institutions to protect students' learning rights," and added, "We will continue to make efforts to create a safe educational environment for students who have dropped out of school."

Meanwhile, the status of registered alternative education institutions nationwide can be checked through the Ministry of Education and the respective provincial offices of education websites.
