Abstract

The present study investigated quality of school-age child care in 142 centers (42 child care centers, 54 social welfare centers, 35 local child center, and 11 elementary schools) located in Seoul. Overall, the quality of school-age child care was not up to standards : 7% were very well managed, 44.4% were well managed and 48.6% were poorly managed. Financial support from the government was the most important factor affecting the quality of school-age child care. The child care centers receiving financial support from the government showed high quality care.
