The purpose of this study is to critically examine multicultural education for immigrant children from the perspective of intercultural education and to suggest ways to improve it. Although multicultural education in Korea has continued to develop quantitatively and qualitatively since the 2000s, it is true that it still faces many challenges. This study began with the recognition that it can contribute to the improvement of multicultural education for immigrant children through the perspective of intercultural education, and developed in a way to organize the characteristics of intercultural education and proceeded in a way that specifically reviews the status and problems of educational support in Korea. From the perspective of intercultural education, it was possible to propose multilingual education for all, including immigrant children, expanding opportunities for independent participation in the curriculum, and improving educational institutions as a site for intercultural dialog.
