EDUCATION IN JAPAN

MAIN OBJECTIVES

. In addition to the basic subjects that are studied in each educational level,
students have subjects such as home economics, in which they learn to cook
or sew, traditional Japanese arts, such as calligraphy (shodo) or poetry (haiku),
and courses of moral education. It is considered essential that students
develop cooperative behavior, group discipline and respect for the rules.
OTHER OBJECTIVES
students have to collaborate in various tasks such as cleaning the
center or serving meals, which are taken in the class itself. For this
the students are divided into groups and work together. The school
also organizes a multitude of complementary activities, such as
sports tournaments, cultural excursions or outings, and very diverse
after-school clubs: sports, music, art, science, etc. It is considered
that this type of activities contribute to developing the ability to
solve problems, work in teams and collaborate for a common
purpose.
HOW WORKS THE EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM
IN JAPAN ?

The Japanese education system is considered by many to be one of the most


efficient in the world. Not surprisingly, Japan is placed, year after year, in the top
of the ranking of the PISA report (global study organized by the OECD and
which measures the academic performance of students in science, reading and
mathematics). Mix of teamwork, discipline and meritocracy, the Japanese
educational model has become a paradigm of high quality training.
What is the Japanese education system like? In Japan,
compulsory education is mostly public and free. As in
Spain, children begin their schooling at age 6 when they
enter the shōgakkō (小学校 し ょ が っ こ う) or
primary school. This first stage lasts until 12 years when
they access the chūgakkō (中 学校 ち ゅ う が っ こ う)
or what we might call secondary. At age 15, students
complete what is considered compulsory education.
Effort and
perseverance as keys
to success
The Japanese educational system is very
influenced by its tradition and culture. The
Japanese society believes that success is not a
direct consequence of skills and intelligence,
but that it is achieved through effort. The
system based on meritocracy is instilled in
students from a young age, when they are taught
that having better academic results means
obtaining more opportunities for training and
employment in the future. This competitiveness
is shown, above all, in the exams that allow
access to the best baccalaureate centers and
universities in the country.
CULTURE , TRADITION AND
EDUCATION
In JAPAN, culture, tradition and education are the fundamental
pillars of social development, since ancient times Japanese culture
has excelled in instilling in its citizens a nationalist doctrine, with a
high sense of service and knowledge, always supported by bases
that go from the religious to the philosophical, as an example is
the bushido.
CLASS SCHEDULE

Children go to school every Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday morning.
The day at school is divided into two three-hour stretches. Morning classes
end at 11:30. In the afternoon, classes go from 1:30 to 4:30
IN CONCLUSSION
• JAPAN IS A VERY RICH COUNTRY IN THE FIELD OF HUMAN TALENT,
BECAUSE THEY HANDLE VERY HIGH LEVELS OF QUALITY IN EDUCATION,
AND THE MOTOR THAT INSPIRES ITS PROGRESS HAS STRONG CULTURAL
ROOTS THAT GO FROM GENERATION TO GENERATION.
