What is Japanese education system today???


At present the Japanese education system has improve a lot after World War II there are divide into 4 segments which are primary, junior high school, high school and university. A school year has three terms: summer, winter and spring, which are follow by a holiday period. The school year start in April and ends in March of the following year. An elementary school (from 6 years) and junior high school (3 years) 3 years of high school and 4 years of university respectively.


In my opinion, Japanese education system is very different from Thailand. For example, Japanese students have more responsibility than Thai student. We can obviously see from every subject competition between Thailand and Japan. However, it is obviously seen that Thai rules are stricter than Japanese .For example, uniform and hair style.

I choose this topic because I want to describe the information about Japanese education system for show every Thai student to put more effort about their study.

Some Japanese students still have motivation problem



The lost of interest in school among Japanese student interest me because I have similar problem. This problem is spreading around the world because now there are a lot of entertainments to keep them busy from school and they will skip school with friends instead of study. Moreover, the high pressures from parent also make some student feel boring about education system because they do not understand the importance of school. Violence in school is the second reason why some Japanese students lost their motivation to go to school. There are concerns that school violence in Japan, which teachers say is the reason to the failure of human relations between parents and children, as well as teachers and students.

In my opinion, Japanese student have the high responsibility about their education and the Japanese education standard is in the fifth place over the world .However, I think Japan have too much entertainment for make students not interested to education. For example game, fashion and high technology.
