Abstract
SW education is to cultivate talented people who logically solve problems through computational thinking, and software education has been operated as a regular subject in an elementary, middle, and high school education environment in Korea since 2018. In this study, SW education programs, SW education tools, and activities for each school level were described through the analysis of 107 SW leading school operation programs in the Jeonbuk region in 2020. In addition, improvement measures were derived for the effectiveness of SW education and the establishment of SW education through the operation of SW leading schools. This study can understand the necessity of operating SW education for each elementary, middle, and high school level and contribute to the policy improvement for establishing SW education.

Keywords
SW education in elementary, middle and high school, SW leading school, AI education, SW education language, physical programming, robot programming.
