The Kyoto High School Teacher Exchange Meeting was launched in 2018 as a place for students to exchange ideas and concerns about school and homeroom management, class improvement, etc., and to share their thoughts on solutions.
The third meeting will be held as follows. Each session is a one-off event, so you can participate regardless of whether you have participated in the event so far.
In the third session, we will focus on the “reform of university entrance examinations” (entrance examination reform related to the selection of students for admission in 2021), which many high school teachers are currently interested in, and discuss the status of each school’s efforts to introduce the Common Test for University Entrance Examinations and change the format of the survey based on the “Notice of Revision of the Guidelines for Conducting University Entrance Examinations for the Heisei 33 Academic Year” notified by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology last fall. In addition, university faculty members will join us to exchange information and exchanges.
We understand that this is a busy time, but we look forward to your active participation. I would also be grateful if you could reach out to the teachers you know.
