26. SOME OF THE BEST PRACTICES OF JAPANESE
EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM
1. Manners before knowledge.
In Japanese schools, the students don’t take any exams until
they reach the age of 10. Children are taught to respect other people
and to be gentle to animals and nature. They also learn how to be
generous, compassionate and empathetic.
2. Most Japanese schools do not employ janitors or custodians.
The students clean their school themselves. In Japanese
schools, students have to clean the classrooms, cafeterias and even
toilets all by themselves.
3.In Japanese schools, school lunch is provided on a standardised
menu.
The Japanese education system does its best to ensure that the
students eat healthy and balanced meals. All classmates eat together
with the teacher.

EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM
4. After-school workshops are very popular in Japan.
In order to get into a good junior high school, most Japanese students
enter a preparatory school or attend private after-school workshops.
5.Apart from traditional subjects, Japanese students also learn Japanese
calligraphy and poetry.
It is impossible for our pupils to be a member of the school and not be
imbued daily by the culture and traditions of the place with these medieval stones,
carvings and paintings around us.
6.Nearly all students have to wear a school uniform.
Almost all junior high schools require their students to wear school
uniforms. While some schools have their own attire, traditional Japanese school
uniform consists of a military style for boys and a sailor outfit for girls.
7.Start and end the class in a specific order
The benefit of this approach and the reason why the world needs to adapt
it is this; not only are students more energized for the lesson this way but also are
laser-focused to learn because of this unconscious reminder that the time of
learning has begun.
