Abstract

This article examined the measures taken by the Education Bureau of the Japanese Government-General of choseon to the March 1 Independence Movement and the responses of schools. Until now, schools have been understood as a space for independence movement. However, on the other hand, it was a space where the governance policy of the Japanese Government-General of choseon could be reflected in detail. With the 2.8 Declaration of Independence of Korean international students, the Education Bureau began to respond to the independence movement in earnest. The Education Bureau strengthened contact with the police officer and instructed schools at all levels to manage students. The director of the Education Bureau visited Tokyo to prevent the influence of the 2.8 Declaration of Independence from affecting colonial choseon. However, this preliminary response failed. After the start of the March 1st Independence Movement, the Education Bureau strengthened contact with the school authorities at provincial level and the government school. the Education Bureau crack down the school staff and students who participated in the Independence Movement and prevent school students strike and Independence Movement. In addition, foreign-run religious schools were cracked down. After the March 1st Movement, the Education bureau's status rose. As it became a department that manages religion and schools, it was in charge of post-processing of the March 1st Movement. On March 1, 1920, the private school regulations were revised to respond to the Independence Movement to commemorate the first anniversary of the March 1st Movement. Based on these changes, three foreign principals of private religious schools were canceled.
