Incheon Metropolitan City Office of Education, Educational administration center in Namdong District, South Korea

The Incheon Metropolitan City Office of Education is the central administrative hub for schools in the Namdong District, managing curricula, school operations, and teaching standards across all public and private institutions in the region. The office handles practical processes such as school registrations, teacher appointments, and educational programs serving students at all grade levels.

A city education committee was set up in 1956, abolished in 1962 when its duties passed to the Gyeonggi Provincial Office of Education, and replaced in 1964 by an Incheon superintendent under that provincial committee. In 1981, when Incheon became a directly administered city, it was reorganised as the Incheon Directly Administered City Education Committee; an education office followed in 1991, renamed for Incheon Metropolitan City in 1995.

The office's name changed with Incheon's own status: it was the Incheon City Education Committee in 1956, the Incheon Directly Governed City Education Committee in 1981, and took its present name in 1995. Its head is the Incheon Metropolitan City Superintendent of Education, a separately elected post.

Visitors can access information about school enrollment, educational policies, and academic programs through the office's digital platform and physical location in Namdong.
