Incheon Office of Education Reaches Agreement on Education Innovation District Annex with 7 Local Governments Including Michuhol-gu and Namdong-gu

Incheon Metropolitan Office of Education announced on the 5th that it has signed the '2024 Education Innovation District Supplemental Agreement' with seven local governments including Gyeyang-gu, Namdong-gu, and Michuhol-gu.

The Education Innovation District is a core project for revitalizing the Incheon Village Education Community. To maintain stable and continuous administrative and financial cooperation, the Office of Education and local governments sign a supplemental agreement annually based on a five-year business agreement.

The Office of Education and the seven local governments focus on operating public-private-academic governance, running village-linked curricula, and supporting village schools through the Education Innovation District agreement, while also operating region-specific projects for each district.

The Office of Education began by designating Nam-gu (currently Michuhol-gu) as an Education Innovation District in 2015, then expanded the scale to include Gyeyang-gu, Bupyeong-gu, and Jung-gu in 2017, and Yeonsu-gu, Seo-gu, and Namdong-gu in 2019.

Do Seong-hoon, Superintendent of Incheon Metropolitan Office of Education, stated, "Based on the signing of the supplemental agreement, we plan to activate public-private-academic governance and operate region-specific village-linked curricula and village schools effectively. We will also do our best to support non-Education Innovation District areas such as Ganghwa, Ongjin-gun, and Dong-gu."
