On the 22nd, Suwon City in Gyeonggi Province signed a 'School Facility Opening Activation Business Agreement' with the Suwon Office of Education, Suwon Sports Council, and five local schools.


According to the agreement, Dasol, Dangsu, and Yuljeon Elementary Schools, as well as Yeonmu and Taejang Middle Schools, will open their gymnasiums for more than 20 hours per week, including weekdays, weekends, and holidays, allowing local residents to use the facilities. Additionally, the status of facility openings will be announced on the schools' websites.


Suwon City plans to support operating expenses for open facilities based on gymnasium opening performance and apply additional points to schools that open their facilities when reviewing educational expense subsidy projects (small-scale environmental improvement projects). Projects for facility opening, such as installing closed-circuit television (CCTV) and separate shutters for teacher buildings, will also be supported.


The Suwon Office of Education will conduct on-site guidance and inspections targeting schools that have not opened their facilities, schools with civil complaints, and schools that signed the agreement, and will operate a School Facility Opening Operation Council on a regular basis to promote the activation of school facility openings.


The Suwon Sports Council will expand support for sports team athletes' equipment and designate a representative user for facility users, providing guidance on the representative's role and user compliance requirements for school facility use.



Lee Jae-jun, Mayor of Suwon City, stated, "With this agreement, we expect to establish a solid system that can safely activate the opening of school facilities in response to the increasing demand from the local community." He added, "Starting with this agreement, I hope to grow the value of sharing together with more institutions."
