Hoshū jugyō kō(Bổ tập thụ nghiệp giáo),orhoshūkō(Bổ tập giáo),[1]are supplementary Japanese schools located in foreign countries for students living abroad with their families.Hoshū jugyō kōeducate Japanese-born children who attend local day schools. They generally operate on weekends, after school, and other times not during the hours of operation of the day schools.[2]

TheMinistry of Education, Science, Sports and Culture(Monbusho), as of 1985, encouraged the opening ofhoshū jugyō kōindeveloped countries.It encouraged the development of full-time Japanese ( "person", not "language" ) day schools, in Japanesenihonjin gakkō,indeveloping countries.In 1971, there were 22 supplementary Japanese schools worldwide.[3]
By May 1986, Japan operated 112 supplementary schools worldwide, having a total of 1,144 teachers, most of them Japanese nationals, and 15,086 students.[4]The number of supplementary schools increased to 120 by 1987.[3]As of April 15, 2010, there are 201 Japanese supplementary schools in 56 countries.[5]
Operations
editThis sectionneeds expansion.You can help byadding to it.(March 2015) |
These schools, which usually hold classes on weekends, are primarily designed to serve the children of Japanese residents temporarily residing in foreign countries so that, upon returning to their home country, they can easily re-adapt to theJapanese educational system.[6]As a consequence, students at these schools, whether they are Japanese nationals and/or permanent residents of the host country, are generally taught in the age-appropriate Japanese curriculum specified by theMinistry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology(MEXT).[7]Article 26 of theConstitution of Japanguarantees compulsory education for Japanese children in grades one through nine, so many weekend schools opened to serve students in those grades. Some weekend schools also serve high school and preschool/kindergarten.[8]Several Japanese weekend schools operate in facilities rented from other educational institutions.[9]
The majority of the instruction iskokugo(Japanese languageinstruction). The remainder of the curriculum consists of other academic subjects,[6]including mathematics, social studies, and sciences.[8]In order to cover all of the material mandated by the government of Japan in a timely fashion, each school assigns a portion of the curriculum as homework, because it is not possible to cover all material during class hours.[6]Naomi Kano(Gia nạp なおみ,Kanō Naomi),[10]author of "Japanese Community Schools: New Pedagogy for a Changing Population", stated in 2011 that the supplementary schools were dominated by "a monoglossic ideology of protecting the Japanese language from English".[11]
The Japanese government sends full-time teachers to supplementary schools that offer lessons that are similar to those ofnihonjin gakkō,and/or those which have student bodies of 100 students each or greater.[4]The number of teachers sent depends upon the enrollment: one teacher is sent for a student enrollment of 100 or more, two for 200 or more students, three for 800 or more students, four for 1,200 or more students, and five for 1,600 or more students.[12]MEXT also subsidizes those weekend schools that each have over 100 students.[8]
North America
editIn North America, thehoshūkōare usually operated by the local Japanese communities. They are equivalent tohagwonin ethnic Korean communities andChinese schoolsin ethnic Chinese communities.[13]These Japanese schools primarily serve Japanese nationals from families temporarily in the United States, orkikokushijo,and second-generationJapanese Americans.The latter may beU.S. citizensor they may have dual U.S.-Japanese citizenship.[14]Because few Japanese children with Japanese as a first language in North America attend full-time Japanese schools, the majority of these children receive their primary education inEnglish, their second language.[15]These supplementary schools exist to provide their Japanese-language education.
Rachel Endo ofHamline University,[16]the author of "Realities, Rewards, and Risks of Heritage-Language Education: Perspectives from Japanese Immigrant Parents in a Midwestern Community", wrote that these schools "have rigorous academic expectations and structured content".[17]
As of 2012 the most common education option for Japanese families resident in the United States, especially those living in major metropolitan areas, is to send children to American schools during the week and use weekend Japanese schools to supplement their education.[12]As of 2007 there were 85 Japanese supplementary schools in the United States.[18]Some 12,500 children of Japanese nationality living in the United States attended both Japanese weekend schools and American day schools. They make up more than 60% of the total number of children of Japanese nationality resident in the United States.[12]
In the 1990s, weekend schools began creatingkeishōgo,or "heritage education", classes for permanent residents of the U.S. The administrators and teachers of each weekend school that offers "heritage classes" develop their own curriculum.[19]In the years prior to 2012, there was an increase in the number of students who were permanent residents of the United States and did not plan to go back to Japan. Instead, they attended the schools "to maintain their ethnic identity". By that year, the majority of students in the Japanese weekend schools in the United States were permanent residents of the United States.[6]Kano argued that the MEXT curriculum for many of these permanent residents is unnecessary and out of touch.[7]
The oldest U.S. Japanese weekend school with Japanese government sponsorship is the Washington Japanese Language School(ワシントン nhật bổn ngữ học giáo,Washington Nihongo Gakkō),[20]founded in 1958 and serving theWashington, DC metropolitan area.[21]
United Kingdom
editThe MEXT has eight Saturday Japanese supplementary schools in operation in the UK. As of 2013, 2,392 Japanese children inCanterbury,Cardiff,Derby,Edinburgh(school is inLivingston),Leeds,London,Manchester(school is inLymm),Sunderland(school is inOxclose), andTelfordattend these schools.[22][23]
