On the same day, the Daegu Metropolitan Office of Education also conducted training to strengthen the investigators' capacity to handle cases, including sharing best practices, educational approaches to resolving school violence, and guidelines for responding to incidents.

The school violence investigator system was introduced to enhance the expertise and fairness of handling school violence cases, and the appointed investigators will serve for one year from March 1, 2026, to the end of February 2027. When school violence cases are reported, they conduct neutral and objective investigations and report the results to the school violence task organization, case review meetings, and deliberation committees.

Daegu Superintendent of Education Kang Eunhee said, "I hope that efforts to resolve conflicts between students through the 'Relationship Recovery Reflection System' and the 'Reconciliation Mediation Group,' which will be implemented as key initiatives starting this year, will be combined with the professional and systematic investigative activities of the school violence investigators to take another step toward normalizing student life education in schools."
