The Plan and Developing Direction of the Japanese English Education System in the New Era

摘要

Since the 21st century, there has been an upsurge of English education reform in Japan and a series of English education reform policies and measures have been introduced. Japan's top-down dominance has made the English education reforms in elementary schools, junior high schools, high schools, and universities more longitudinally coherent, effectively linking the various academic sections and ensuring the smooth implementation of reforms. The "one-stop" education system for primary school, middle school, high school and college English teaching has been implemented. This paper analyzes the planning, reform measures and development direction of Japan's primary school, middle school and college English education system, and draws some useful lessons from it, hoping to provide inspiration for the reform of English teaching In China.
