The Japanese School System (1) Pre-elementary Education Before starting elementary school, small children attend nursery school or kindergarten. The length of pre-elementary education varies from city to city and the type of institution. (2) Elementary (Primary) and Secondary Education A child can enter elementary school starting the April he/she has reached the age of six. Elementary education lasts for six years. After graduating from elementary school, children attend junior high school for three years. These nine years are compulsory and all Japanese citizens are regulated by law to enroll their children. Japanese government regulations ensure that all children of the same grade in Japanese elementary and junior high schools receive the same education. After finishing elementary and junior high school education, if the student has passed the entrance exam, they can enter a high school or vocational school. There are high schools that divide general education and specialized education into separate courses, as well as schools that integrate general education and specialized education into a single course. High school normally lasts for three years. There are special schools and schools with special classes to support children with disabilities. Education is tailored to meet the needs of each student with special needs. (3) Higher Education Higher education usually takes place in universities or junior colleges. In these institutions, students can receive high-level and specialized education. Normally, university lasts for four years and junior college for two years. There are also graduate schools for those who want to pursue their education further.

Elementary Schools and Junior High Schools (1) Procedures for Enrollment in Elementary and Junior High Schools(example) ※ The Procedures and documents may be different in each town or city. Please check the procedures at the municipal office of the city you reside in (for the city of Kobe, please check at the office of each district”kuyakusho”). a. Procedures at the municipal or ward office First you must bring your residence card to the municipal office (in Kobe, ward office) nearest to your home and register your address. Next, you should go to the office of the board of education and state that you would like to enroll your child in a Japanese school. You will be given either a “shugaku annai ” (guidance for entering school form; for when your child first enrolls in a school) form or a “gaikokujin jido seito nyugaku shinseisho ” (school entrance application form for foreign students) form. Fill in the required sections and submit it to the board of education. After a few days, the board of education will send a letter called “ gaikokujin jido seito nyugaku kyokasho ” (school entrance permission for foreign stu えざ dents) that states the name of the school where your child will attend. Sometimes this form is given directly to you when you go to the office to apply. Please make sure you confirm the location and name of the school. th Following the residency management system (introduced on July 9 2012), residence cards will not be issued to people who have obtained a period of stay less than 3 months or do not have a permission to stay in Japan, and they will not have identification documents. However, the rights of the children to receive education are guaranteed. If reliable documentation is offered and residency can be confirmed with it, flexible measures should be taken in order to enroll the child as a student. (June 2006, July 2012 / Notice of the Head of the Elementary and Secondary Education Bureau, the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology) b. Procedures at school Next, bring the “gaikokujin jido seito nyugaku kyokasho ” (school entrance permission for foreign students) letter to the school with your child. At school, please speak with the teachers about what your child’s daily school life will be like. When a foreign student is enrolled in a Japanese school, they normally receive the same treatment as the Japanese students. In Japan, a student’s grade is determined by age. All students who were born starting from April 2 nd to April 1 st of the following year are placed in the same grade. Thus, when foreign students are admitted into Japanese school, their grade is determined by their age, and may differ from their grade in their home country. However, if it is determined that your child should not be enrolled in a particular grade due to a need for special Japanese education or for other reasons, he/she may be transferred to a lower grade.

  • Doctor Guide in Kobe 08.28.16.Pdf
    Doctor Guide for Kobeites All doctors study English diagnosis names and at the very least should be able to write the name of your problem down for you. For a searchable-by-specialty list of English-speaking doctors in Hyogo, see http://web.qq.pref.hyogo.lg.jp/hyogo/ap/qq/men/pwtpmenult01.aspx If you’re uncomfortable with a certain doctor or question their diagnosis, don’t be afraid to get a second opinion. (JETs: also please remember that if you have a medical emergency or a serious medical issue CIRs can help you out.) Finally, note that the inclusion of a doctor on this list means that someone at some time liked them – it means that it’s more likely that you will too, but not a certainty. This guide was initially created for JETs, so has a bias toward places where Kobe JETs are congregated – however, the compiler is now a Kobe JET alumni still in Kobe and decided to broaden things a little (& change the title). Got medicine but don’t know what it is and want more information in English? You can look it up at Kusuri no Shiori’s English version http://www.rad-ar.or.jp/siori/english/ Specialty Index Acupuncture Allergy [no entries] Dental Dermatology Gastroenterology [no entries] Gynecology/Obstetricians Hospitals Internal Medicine Ophthalmology [eyes] Orthopedics [muscle/skeletal issues, includes medical massage/osteopathy] Otolaryngology [ear nose throat] Pediatrics [no entries] Psychiatry Psychology/Counseling STD Testing Urology * Podiatry (feet) is not normally a specialty in Japan – most people go to an orthopedic doctor.

  • 2009 Annual Report
    WEST JAPAN RAILWAY COMPANY RAILWAY JAPAN WEST Annual Report 2009 Ensuring Safety, Delivering Growth Annual Report 2009 WEST JAPAN RAILWAY COMPANY WEST JAPAN RAILWAY COMPANY Printed in Japan West Japan Railway Company (JR-West) is one of the six passenger railway transport companies formed by the split-up and privatization of Japanese National Railways (JNR) in 1987. Its mainstay railway business operates a network of lines with a total route length of approximately 5,000 kilometers, extending through 18 prefectures that account for around one-fifth of Japan’s land area. Railway systems in Japan evolved as a natural consequence of the cities that formed through the accumulation of people in the limited number of plains throughout the country. Joined like links in a chain, the geographical distribution of these cities has created a solid demand base that accounts for one-fourth of all passenger volume in Japan. While railway operations remain the core of its business, JR-West also aims to make the most of the assets that are part of its network of stations and railways to develop its retail, real estate, and hotel businesses. Corporate Philosophy 1 We, being conscious of our responsibility for protecting 4 We, together with our Group companies, will consistently the truly precious lives of our customers, and incessantly improve our service quality by enhancing technology and acting on the basis of safety first, will build a railway that expertise through daily efforts and practices. assures our customers of its safety and reliability. 5 We, deepening mutual understanding and respecting each 2 We, with a central focus on railway business, will fulfill the individual, will strive to create a company at which employ- expectations of our customers, shareholders, employees, ees find job satisfaction and in which they take pride.
