A Study on Establishing a Mid- to Long-term Teacher Supply and Demand Forecast System
The objective of this research is to lay out a proposal to establish a predictive framework for the stable, mid- to long-term management of teacher supply and demand. Towards this end, prior literature covering the key characteristics and limitations of educators was analysed. Additionally, the future state of supply and demand of teachers in Korea and their key issues were analysed while simultaneously carrying out document research, interviews with specialists, conferences and workshops.
As a result of the analysis of the current state of Korean education, problems implementing new strategic direction to education, systemic and legal issues, issues associated with the limited number of educators, problems dispatching teachers and professors within municipal and provincial education bureaus as well as the impact of multiple changes to an already varied education platform were found to be major issues that are posing difficulties to the long-term forecast of teacher supply and demand.
