Incheon City Office of Education - Teacher Organizations Join Forces to Protect Educational Activities... Discussing Response Measures to Complaints

The Incheon Metropolitan City Office of Education (Superintendent Do Seong-hoon) has collaborated with local teacher organizations to protect educational activities in schools.

On the 29th, the Incheon City Office of Education announced that it held a 'Policy Council Meeting for Protecting Educational Activities' with three teacher organizations: the Incheon Teachers' Union, the Korean Federation of Teachers' Associations Incheon Branch, and the Incheon Teachers' Union. This meeting was initiated to establish effective protection measures amid ongoing concerns about violations of teachers' rights.

During the meeting, the city office and each organization shared the terms and specific support details of the 2025 Teachers' Protection Mutual Aid Association. In particular, they collected suggestions from field teachers to be reflected in the 2026 terms revision, while also engaging in in-depth discussions on the most pressing issue in schools: responses to malicious complaints.

An official from the Incheon City Office of Education emphasized, "Protecting educational activities is only completed when policies resonate with the voices from the field," and stated, "We will create an environment where teachers can focus solely on education with continuous communication with teacher organizations."

The city office plans to regularize policy council meetings with teacher organizations in the future to enhance the effectiveness of educational activity protection policies and continuously provide tailored support measures that reflect the needs of schools.
