Gwangju Metropolitan Office of Education

The Gwangju Metropolitan Office of Education is the central authority in Seo District that oversees school operations and educational policy across the city. It supervises schools and kindergartens that serve a large student population throughout the metropolitan area.

The office was established in 1986 when the city created its own educational system and took control over school management. This marked the start of local governance for schools in Gwangju rather than relying on distant administration.

The office shapes how young people in the city learn about their roots and prepare for a changing world. Educators and administrators here work with schools to balance traditional knowledge with modern skills.

The office is located centrally in Seo District and is accessible by public transportation. Visitors should plan to arrive during regular business hours when staff members are available to assist.

The office operates specialized departments focused on creative programs that blend art, science, and technology in learning. These innovative approaches to education set the city apart from other regions.
