On the 28th, I submitted the signatures of the surplus to the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology.

According to a survey by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology, 282 public school teachers were disciplined for indecent acts and sexual harassment of children, students, colleagues' faculty and staff in 2018, the highest number ever. I will.

Under these circumstances, a group of parents visited the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology on the 28th, and 54,000 people gathered on the Internet a petition requesting that if the teacher's license expires due to obscene acts on children, the license cannot be reacquired. I submitted it with the remaining signature.



According to the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology, if a teacher receives a disciplinary dismissal, the teacher's license will expire or be removed, but it will be possible to reacquire it after three years.



Ms. Mako Gunji, co-representative of the group, said, "The victims are hurt because they can't speak up or are denied lying.

Considering measures with a view to amending the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology law

The Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology is considering countermeasures with a view to amending the law, as obscene acts by teachers have become a serious problem.



One of the ongoing measures is to extend the period during which you can search for information regarding the expiration of your teacher's license.



In a database called "Kanpo Information Retrieval Tool" that can be used by recruiters such as the Board of Education, if you enter your name and your teacher's license has expired, you can check the reason.



The Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology has decided to extend the search period on the system from February next year to 40 years, which was the same period as the period during which the license can be reacquired, which is three years.



The reason is that the number of obscene acts by teachers is increasing, but since the extension includes all disciplinary dismissals and it is sensitive personal information, strict management is also required when using it. ..



In addition, stricter dispositions for teachers who commit obscene acts are being promoted.



According to the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology, the board of education of all prefectures and ordinance-designated cities will dismiss teachers who have committed obscene acts, which differed depending on the local government, as a general rule. It means that the regulations are expected to be put in place.



In addition, we are considering reviewing the current system that allows re-acquisition of expired teacher licenses in three years.



This requires revision of the Education Personnel Certification Act, but the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology is continuing to consider the issue of "freedom to choose a profession" guaranteed by the Constitution and the issue of denial of rehabilitation. I will.



Minister of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology Hagita said at a post-Cabinet press conference on the 15th of this month that "teachers who are in a position to protect and nurture should not do obscene acts against children and students" and are willing to amend the law. Shows posture.
