Career Guidance
In junior high school, ethics classes primarily encourage students to reflect on their own lives and futures as part of studies on ways of living. In senior high school, students take career aptitude tests tailored to each school year and obtain career guidance.
| 1st year of senior high school (S1) | Students learn about the working world generally and are offered guidance on thinking about their own characters, aptitudes and career paths (future occupations). |
|---|---|
| 2nd year of senior high school (S2) | Beginning in the third year, students prepare to decide whether to enter the sciences or the humanities. To learn more about selecting faculties and courses and their own occupational aptitudes, students take career aptitude tests. Graduates are invited to visit and speak about the realities of the working world, and their experiences in choosing between the sciences and the humanities. |
| Third year of senior high school (S3) | Students enjoy opportunities to hear stories from groups of humanities and science graduates about selecting universities, as well as experiences of university life. |
