Abstract

Recently, various deaths have occurred both inside and outside of Koreanschools, increasing the risk of crisis situations. This has made it difficult forschools to promote students' academic achievement. Therefore, this study aimed todiscuss the roles schools should play before and after death to establish a systemthat properly handles death. Before a death occurs, schools should provide deatheducation to students and faculty. After death, schools should implement immediatecrisis response team activities, operate spaces where school members can receivenecessary support, operate support groups, and implement interventions tailored to students' developmental stages and individual characteristics. To achieve this, thisstudy suggested a shift in the perception that schools are crucial environments thatcan play a positive role in the grieving process, provide education and training forstaff, foster cooperative partnerships with relevant community organizations, andimplement regular monitoring and evaluations of crisis response.
