SEOUL - The Education Ministry said Thursday it has teamed up the police and the market watchdog, the Fair Trade Commission , to identify irregularities in operations of hagwon, or private academies and institutions nationwide for the next two weeks.
The ministry started receiving reports on hagwon that provide one-on-one classes, run false advertisements, promote excessive spending on private education, and charge separately for textbooks.
According to reports, several high school teachers in Daechi-dong - the neighbourhood in Seoul’s Gangnam district known as the Mecca of private education - sell above-level questions from “suneung” mock exams to hagwon.which plays a crucial role in deciding a student’s college, career and even marriage prospects.
“Killer questions” for the South Korean language subject are reportedly sold at approximately 250,000 won , while Mathematics questions are priced at about 500,000 won. “The unfair private education cartel is what the government must eradicate. It won’t be solved quickly, but the government is committed to solving this issue,” Mr Jang said Thursday during the response council meeting to combat irregularities in the private education industry.The decision comes as the country saw a stark increase in private education spending, hitting a record-high 26 trillion won last year, with the highest spending on English and Mathematics.
