The Gyeongbuk Office of Education operated Neulbom Pilot Schools for first graders at 180 schools in the first semester of this year, and from the second semester, expanded the operation to all elementary and special schools in the province. Starting March 2025, Neulbom Schools will be expanded to cover first and second graders in elementary schools.


Applicants must be Korean nationals with at least a high school diploma or higher to be eligible to apply.


Applications can be submitted in person or by registered mail to the regional education support offices from the 24th to the 28th. For applicants who find it difficult to visit in person, proxy submission is allowed with a power of attorney.


The recruitment process consists of a first-round document screening, a second-round written test, and a third-round interview. The final successful candidates will be announced on December 30.


Successful candidates will be assigned as of March 1, 2025, to 369 public elementary schools (with six or more classes) and one special school (Gyeongsan Janin School) in the province.


Additionally, 98 contract Neulbom Administrative Assistants (96 in public elementary schools and 2 in public special schools) will be assigned to schools where Neulbom Administrative Assistants are not placed. These will be separately recruited at regional Neulbom Support Centers after January 2025.


Furthermore, one national elementary school, two private elementary schools, and five private special schools will receive personnel cost support to hire staff independently.


Along with this, 112 Neulbom Support Directors (term-based educational researchers) will concurrently serve and be assigned as of March 1, 2025, to perform overall Neulbom tasks together with Neulbom Administrative Assistants.



Lim Jong-sik, Superintendent of Gyeongbuk Office of Education, stated, “Through this recruitment of Neulbom Administrative Assistants, we hope Neulbom Schools will be operated more systematically and stably,” and urged, “Applicants should carefully check the announcement and apply following the exact procedures.”
