On Japanese primary schools

? I went to my neighbor's house last night and borrowed books. I talked about her son going to primary school next year.

There are three choices to attend primary schools in Japan: national, private and public. Ethnic schools are quite difficult to test, and schools with less education are good. The national primary school in Tokyo is like winning a 50 million grand prize. Because I want to take the exam, I can't. First of all, you have to go to various schools to get the application. The school will draw lots among all the applications to decide who can take the exam, and those who have the opportunity to take the exam account for 25% ~ 50% of the applications. The second level is the formal examination, which not only tests sub-questions, but also tests questions and answers, handicrafts, volleyball and teamwork. Examinations not only test children, but also test parents. If parents don't answer well, they will drag their feet. The third level is that qualified people have to draw lots to decide who can enter the school in the end. Her children applied to three countries, and two of them didn't even have a chance to take the exam. There's another one to see if we can win it next week. Similarly, private primary schools are also difficult to test. Although there is no lottery, the content of the exam is also varied. In order to enter the private national examination, children must go to training institutions to study.

Japanese education is only a public education, and it is also a struggle for children to get into good universities and take the educational route.
