(브레이크뉴스인천 박상도 기자) 지난해 2024년 학생학원교육 지출이 증가했다. 

통계청이 최근 발표한 ‘2024년 4분기 및 연간 가계동향조사 결과’와 국가통계포털 KOSIS를 종합하면 지난해 학생학원교육 지출은 전체 가구 2.50%, 미혼자녀 있는 부부 가구 3.82% 늘었다.

미혼자녀 있는 부부 가구의 경우 월 41만 4천 638원으로 작년보다 1만 5천 264원 많이 지출했다. 

분기별로 보면, 1분기부터 4분기까지 계속 증가세를 보였다. 

전년 동분기 대비하여 감소한 경우는 없었다. 

미혼자녀 있는 부부 가구의 경우 1분기 3.39%, 2분기 4.90%, 3분기 0.29%, 4분기 6.60%를 기록했다. 입시철 4분기에 가장 많이 증가한 셈이다. 

국회 교육위원회 더불어민주당 김문수 의원(전남 순천·광양·곡성·구례 갑)은 “가계동향조사의 학생학원교육비가 지난해 2024년 늘었다”며, “2주 뒤 3월 중순에 발표될 초중고 사교육비 조사 국가통계가 주목된다”고 말했다. 

“윤석열 정부는 2년 연속 역대급 사교육비였다”는 김 의원은 “사교육비의 원인인 학벌사회나 지나친 경쟁교육을 방관하고, 전국적인 현상으로 확산된 초등의대반에 대한 정책수단은 갖추지 못한 가운데 킬러문항과 카르텔만 챙긴 까닭에 사교육비 통계 또한 그리 좋은 성적표는 아닐 것으로 추정된다”고 밝혔다. 

가계동향조사 ‘학생학원교육’ 지출은 학생이 정규 교육과정에 대해 부족한 부분을 보충하거나 선행학습 등을 하는 지출이다. ‘초중고 사교육비’와 유사하다. 

초중고 사교육비는 학생 개인 단위 통계이고, 학생학원교육 지출은 가구 단위라는 점이 다르다. 

또한 초중고 사교육비에는 영유아와 N수생이 없고, 학생학원교육 지출에는 포함된다. 

초중고 사교육비는 6개월치를 조사하며 연간 통계는 가계동향조사 학생학원교육 지출 등을 참조하여 산출한다. 

그래서 학생학원교육비로 추이를 짐작할 수 있다. 

윤석열 정부는 2023년까지 2년 연속으로 학생 1인당 월평균 사교육비, 사교육비 총액, 사교육 참여율 등 주요 지표가 사상 최고치를 기록했다. 

만약 2024년 통계도 증가를 보인다면 3년 연속 저조한 성적표가 된다. 

윤석열 정부 출범 이후만 놓고 보면 학생 1인당 월평균 사교육비는 18.33% 증가했으며 초등학교가 21.09%로 가장 많이 뛰었다. 

대학 등록금은 인상시키고 초중고 사교육비는 늘린 정부로 회자될 소지가 있다.

Rep. Kim Moon-soo, Increase in Student Private Education Expenses Throughout the 4th Quarter of Last Year

-Break News Incheon Park Sang-do reporter

Last year, 2024, student private education expenditures increased.

According to the ‘2024 4th Quarter and Annual Household Trend Survey Results’ recently announced by Statistics Korea and the National Statistical Portal KOSIS, student private education expenditures last year increased by 2.50% for all households and 3.82% for households with unmarried children.

In the case of households with unmarried children, the monthly expenditure was 414,638 won, 15,264 won more than last year.

When looking at it by quarter, it continued to increase from the 1st quarter to the 4th quarter.

There was no decrease compared to the same quarter of the previous year.

In the case of couples with unmarried children, the figures were 3.39% in the first quarter, 4.90% in the second quarter, 0.29% in the third quarter, and 6.60% in the fourth quarter. The largest increase occurred in the fourth quarter during the college entrance exam season.

Rep. Kim Moon-soo of the Democratic Party of Korea (Jeonnam Suncheon, Gwangyang, Gokseong, Gurye Gap) of the National Assembly Education Committee said, “The household trend survey showed that private academy education expenses increased in 2024 last year,” and added, “The national statistics on private education expenses for elementary, middle, and high schools, which will be announced in mid-March two weeks from now, are drawing attention.”

Rep. Kim, who said, “The Yoon Seok-yeol government has had the highest private education expenses for two consecutive years,” said, “It has neglected the causes of private education expenses, such as the society that values ​​academic background and excessive competition in education, and has not prepared policy measures for elementary school students who are in high school, which has spread nationwide, so it is estimated that the statistics on private education expenses will not be very good because they only focused on killer questions and cartels.”

The expenditure on ‘student academy education’ in the household trend survey is the expenditure for students to supplement what they lack in the regular education curriculum or to study in advance. It is similar to ‘elementary, middle, and high school private education expenses’.

The difference is that elementary, middle, and high school private education expenses are statistics for individual students, while student academy education expenses are for households.

In addition, infants and toddlers and repeat students are not included in elementary, middle, and high school private education expenses, but are included in student academy education expenses.

Elementary, middle, and high school private education expenses are surveyed for 6 months, and annual statistics are calculated by referring to household trend survey student academy education expenses, etc.

Therefore, trends can be estimated with student academy education expenses.

The Yoon Seok-yeol government has recorded the highest ever in major indicators such as average monthly private education expenses per student, total private education expenses, and private education participation rate for two consecutive years until 2023.

If the 2024 statistics also show an increase, it will be the third consecutive year of poor report cards.

Looking only at the period since the inauguration of the Yoon Seok-yeol government, the average monthly private education cost per student has increased by 18.33%, with elementary schools seeing the largest increase at 21.09%.

It is likely that the government will be remembered as the one that raised college tuition and increased private education costs for elementary, middle, and high schools.
