The popularity of elementary school teachers, once a coveted profession, is waning.
Even in this year's entrance exam, an examinee who passed the 1st round of regular shifts in the metropolitan area with a grade 9 score on the CSAT appeared and became a hot topic.
In this year’s entrance exam, the competition rate of universities of education has declined all at once.
The average competition rate for 10 shifts across the country was 1.87 to
1, a significant drop from last year's 2.2 to 1.
In this situation, the story of getting the 9th grade in the CSAT and passing the 1st round of regular shifts in a metropolitan area has appeared in the online community and is becoming a hot topic.
It is estimated that the reason for the obvious decline in the popularity of the shift is due to a full-fledged decrease in the school-age population, as well as a recruitment ice age and a reduction in the number of teachers.
At the same time as the fall of teaching authority, the increased work burden is also considered as a factor that lowers the attractiveness of the job.
In the midst of this, as part of the educational reform of the education authorities, the promotion of a specialized graduate school of education is being announced, and the opposition from college students is also getting stronger.
