Japan is an island country that adopted a constitutional monarchy and sovereign state in its political nature, where the monarch or the emperor act as a ceremonial figurehead of Japan. Japan runs by the prime minister and his cabinet as an executive government body together with a legislature body known as a National Diet, while the sovereignty is held by the Japanese people. Japan is one of the economic powerhouses in Asia, ranked third in terms of nominal GDP and ranked second in Asia just right after China.
Not only in terms of economy Japan is also one most innovative countries in the world and one of the lead countries in terms of technology. Japan has the largest electronics industry in the world and ranked third in the automobile industry just after the US, which contributes around 28% of Japan’s GDP. Because the Japanese economy relies heavily on innovation and technology the labor market in Japan demands people to have higher education, especially in science and technology.
Education in plays a very important role in Japan’s economy, it is also to maintain a competitive edge in industrial sectors as the country’s economy relies heavily on technology and innovation. Japanese students ranked highly among OECD countries as they have outstanding performance in literacy, science, and math compared to their peers from other countries. However, Japan spends less money from its national budget on education compared to other OECD countries, in 2015 Japan only spend 3.5% of its GDP where other OECD countries on average spend 4.7% of their GDP.
Education from primary to secondary level is compulsory in Japan. Most students attend public school until secondary level and it’s compulsory for the students to learn English at secondary school, along with additional foreign language offered by their schools. It is not mandatory for Japanese students to attend senior high school, but more than 90% of Japanese students attend senior high school, where more than half of students go to private high schools, which are twice expensive as public high school. To know more about Japan education system check here.
Japan has many universities scattered across the nation. In 2008 Japan launched a program to attract more foreign students called the “300,000 Students Plan” the main is to attract foreign students to study in Japan. Aware of the cost to study in Japan is expensive the program provides foreign students with financial support and various scholarships program will be introduced to help the students.
