"Teachers to Focus Solely on Education"... Jeonnam Office of Education Implements School Administration "Reorganization"

Reduction of 23 Administrative Tasks...
Transition to Field-Tailored Support System

The Jeonnam Provincial Office of Education has developed and begun full-scale implementation of a "School Administrative Work Reduction Plan" this month, aiming to reduce the administrative burden on faculty and create a school environment where they can focus on student education.

On July 2, the Office announced, "As of July 1, we are stabilizing the on-site support system of the reorganized Education Support Office School Comprehensive Support Centers, and are gradually implementing follow-up measures to firmly establish a total of 23 administrative reduction tasks at schools."

Accordingly, the Office recently held a meeting with the heads of the School Comprehensive Support Centers and school support team leaders, and is sequentially visiting local education offices and schools to gather feedback on the policy implementation. Task-specific operation manuals have also been created and distributed to ensure the policies are applied in the field without confusion.

In addition, the Office plans to conduct training and consulting in parallel to monitor the implementation status of each task and make continuous improvements where necessary. In particular, each department will revise relevant regulations and simultaneously conduct systematic training to strengthen the expertise of those in charge.

Superintendent Kim Daejung stated, "This support system reorganization is not aimed at organizational restructuring, but rather at strengthening the educational capacity of schools by reflecting ongoing field demands and current trends." He added, "We will strive to establish a foundation that enables schools to focus on student education through field-tailored support."

Meanwhile, the Office plans to further strengthen communication with the field, continuously identify new tasks to reduce school administrative work, and accelerate the transition of the system so that the main office and education support offices can focus on supporting schools, through precise analysis of organizations, personnel, functions, and duties.
