The purpose of the study is designed to find a desirable direction of the Education Reform by diagnosing the problem and character of the Educational Reform which stans for the Neo-liberalism lately. Neo-liberalism is based on the leading Western industrial history and its society, which is a new economic strategy. Neo-liberalism policies executed by our government includes school Administration Committee, shortened age limits of teachers, independent private high schools, piecework system, and increased contractual teachers.
Neo-liberalism educational reform has legalized and enforced previously troubled out-of-school studies and entrance examination-oriented education. As a result, educational publicism has been weakened, while strengthening the individualistic tendency of education.
This Neo-liberalistic educational rearrangement has the characteristics of introducing market principles, changing education in the direction of enhancing labor flexibility, and strengthening capitalism ideology.
Therefore, We should pay attention to find alternative to the neoliberal models which are beginning to show, especially in their practical application, the weaknesses of their theoretical formulations. In order to begin to envision successful educational reforms, it is necessary to participate social action among all actors involved in educational policy-making
