Closed schools are being managed in various ways, including sale, lease, demolition, and utilization, but in-depth discussions are needed that take into account the mental and physical health of youth and the local situation. Accordingly, in this study, closed schools in Gyeonggi-do can be used as forest schools, camping type, and smart farms for physical health. In addition, it was suggested that for mental health, it can be used as a space such as a meditation center, complex arts psychological counseling center, edu-healing center, and complex play culture center. In addition, the policy recommendations of this study are as follows. First, in order to utilize the closed school for educational purposes, residents, the Office of Educational Support, and the Office of Education need to organize a space for the minds and bodies of students through a comprehensive plan. Second, efforts are required to support the use of space based on creative ideas and technologies in connection with community-based companies and local governments. Third, closed schools are often located at significant distances from downtown or major living areas. Therefore, in the case of administrative management entities such as complex art psychological counseling centers, complex play centers, meditation centers, and healing centers, branches of existing centers can be opened. Lastly, in order to implement this, careful analysis is needed to continuously secure the budget.
