고교평준화정책 시행 지역의 고등학교 학생 배정방안에 대한 학생과 학부모의 인식 분석: 경기도 안산 지역을 중심으로

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze the perceptions of students and parents regarding the high school student assignment method based on the equalization policy. For this study, an online survey was conducted targeting 3rd grade middle school students, their parents, and 1st year high school students in Ansan, Gyeonggi-do. The results of the study are as follows. First, overall satisfaction with zoning for student assignment was higher than the average level in high school. The current district-to-zone allocation ratio, the number of schools selected in the allocation method within the district, measures for middle schools located at the boundary between districts, and district segmentation opinions were all expressed in favor of maintaining the current status. Second, the most important criteria for school selection were distance to school, time to reach the school, school facilities and the school environment. Third, with respect to changes in preferences for parents, when designating a subject-focused school, it was found that science, art, and second foreign language subjects all had a high positive perception of the transition to a subject-focused school. Fourth, with regard to the current status of commuting, more than 80% of the students took less than 30 minutes and 11% of the students took more than 40 minutes to reach school. Furthermore, it was found that students mainly used walking and public transportation as a means of commuting to school. Finally, based on the study results, implications related to high school student assignments were suggested.
