[사회][팩트와이] Change High School Allocation Method to Achieve House Price in Gangnam?

[앵커]

The controversy arises when the Seoul Metropolitan Bureau of Education promotes a plan to change the middle school’s allocation method to the form of a lottery after first aid.

There are opposition petitions on the home page of the Office of Education and even media reports saying it is to price a house in Gangnam.

To the extent that it is true, I have indeed weighed it.

This is Ko Han-seok’s reporter.

“I’m going to pay for a house in Gangnam, so they’ll assign me to high school.”

The title of a daily newspaper article.

It is estimated that they are trying to erase the so-called ‘school district premium’ reflected in house prices by allowing them to enter Gangnam High School even if they do not live in Gangnam.

▲ Switch to Seoul school district?

At this time, the Seoul Metropolitan Bureau of Education jumped in and nailed the no.

[최성묵 / 서울시 교육청 학교지원과장 : 그럴 계획도 없고, 그렇게 바꿀 수도 없어요. 거주지 벗어난 학교 지원 가능하다는 건 전혀 사실과 다릅니다.]

Whatever the interior of the Seoul Metropolitan Bureau of Education, it is not easy to break through the current school district system.

Seoul’s middle schools are divided into 46 ‘school clusters’ which are subdivided into self-governing districts.

You cannot go to middle school outside of the school district unless you move.

To break the boundaries of this school district, the process is difficult and requires deliberation and resolution on the part of the city council.

It is an issue directly related to the hottest topics in our society, such as education and real estate, and the political burden is high, so public debate is also necessary.

Therefore, it is highly likely that the media will report that no matter where you live in Seoul, you will be able to go to Gangnam High School.

▲ Is it to catch the ‘house price in Bangladesh’?

The current proposal from the Seoul Metropolitan Bureau of Education is to introduce a partial support system to the 100% lottery system for high school assignments.

However, if the application is made within the existing school district, the impact on real estate will not be significant.

The researchers who conducted the related research service also emphasized that they do not consider the solution of changing the school group in the call with YTN.

[이화룡 / 공주대학교 교수 (서울시 교육청 연구 용역 수행) : 전혀 그런 의도 없이 시작한 연구입니다. 갑자기 부동산과 겹치면서 많이 곤란해졌어요. 학군 광역화는 지금 현재 고려하고 있지 않습니다. 현재 46개 있는데, 그거 그대로 가져갈 겁니다.]

▲ Is there much concern about “distance school attendance”?

In Seoul, although the school-age population is declining, the number of students in some schools is increasing relatively.

The current 46 middle school clusters were created in 1996, 24 years ago, so they need to be modified to fit the times.

However, Daejeon City recently promoted the ‘expansion of school districts’ for the same reason as Seoul City, but is facing difficulties due to concerns about remote assignment.

Even if the middle school assignment method is adjusted, a detailed approach is required, such as reflecting distance to school using big data.
