The personnel appointments for kindergarten and elementary school teachers include 600 elementary school transfers, 100 kindergarten transfers, 60 special education teacher transfers, 113 non-subject teacher transfers, and 22 invited teachers, totaling 895.

For secondary school teachers, there are 1,113 transfers, 6 senior teacher transfers, 9 invited teachers, 12 contract expirations, 1 public recruitment, 2 public recruitment expirations, and 4 school principal transfers, totaling 1,147.

An official from the Office of Education stated, “For elementary schools, additional teacher quotas were allocated even to schools without vice principals and subject-specialist teachers to support the improvement of poor working conditions in small schools. We focused on enhancing school educational capacity by additionally allocating teacher quotas to schools operating policy tasks for the transition to future schools.”

He added, “Despite the reduction in quotas for secondary schools, the introduction of the ‘Jeonnam-type Basic Quota System’ this year will greatly help the operation of educational curricula in island area schools where hiring contract teachers is difficult.”
