Gyeonggi Office of Education to Build Two School Complex Facilities on Idle Sites in First Half of This Year

The Gyeonggi Provincial Office of Education will promote the 'school complex facility' project in Uijeongbu and Seongnam during the first half of this year. School complex facilities are a core policy project of the Ministry of Education, aiming to establish environments for education and care and serve as hubs for regional integration.

The provincial office plans to construct a large-scale school complex facility, with a total investment of 58.5 billion won, on a site adjacent to Sampyeong Middle School in Seongnam (725 Sampyeong-dong), which will include a swimming pool, public library, and cultural spaces.

Additionally, two idle classroom buildings at Gosan Elementary School in Uijeongbu will be refurbished to create a school complex facility. A total of 1 billion won will be invested to establish a lifelong learning facility equipped with a multipurpose room, shared kitchen, and creative studio.
