Abstract

Objectives This study was conducted to examine in-depth the perception of the 2019 revised Nuri Curriculum for mothers with 5-years-old child who have experienced both the Nuri Curriculum and the 2019 revised Nuri Curriculum. Methods To this end, based on semi-structured interview questions, 6 mothers with children attending kindergartens in the metropolitan area were divided into three groups to fing out their perception and concerns about the 2019 revised Nuri Curriculum at the age of 4 and 5 compared to the Nuri Curriculum experienced at the age of 3. Results As a result of the study, first, the study participants were not aware of the revision of the Nuri Curriculum. As parental participation is important, discussions on parental education on the 2019 revised Nuri Curriculum will be needed. Second, it was positive about child-centered and play-centered, but ti was skeptical that all teachers could intervene and expand meaningful play for all children without a plan. It is believed that active discussion is needed to strengthen the teacher’s competency. Third, they were concerned about the increase in preference for private education and private elementary school due to greater concerns about insufficient preparation for elementary school entrance due to the play-centered 2019 revised Nuri Curriculum. Specific discussions will be needed to resolve parents’ anxiety about adapting to elementary school. Conclusions Therefore, this study is meaningful in that it provides basic data for establishing a social support system to identify and supplement various problems following the implementation of the 2019 revised Nuri Curriculum when the revised Nuri Curriculum was implemented for two years.
