In the Japanese educational system, the six years that make up elementary school and three years of junior high school are considered compulsory education. Generally, students enter elementary school at age 6 and junior high school at age 12.
Although it is not compulsory education, most students (97 percent) advance to high school.
After graduating high school, over half of students will advance to higher education, such as a two-year junior college or a four-year university.
High schools in Tokushima Prefecture are divided into public and private schools. They are additionally divided into three types by class hours and other factors.
There are three types of courses depending on the style of study.
*Because the selection process for high school enrollment is very complex, please communicate to your school and homeroom teacher your wishes regarding your education and career path as early as possible after entering junior high school.
In Japan, elementary, junior high, and high schools generally employ a three-term system, although some schools use a two-term system instead.
Most schools in Tokushima Prefecture have three terms.
The PTA is an organization where parents and teachers work together to ensure that education proceeds as smoothly as possible. Mainly operating through elected officers, the PTA is involved in things such as traffic safety guidance, community activities, publicity activities, organizing workshops, and helping with school events.
