Decentralized school attendance at junior high school in Tama city, Tokyo

At Tama Junior High School in Tama City, Tokyo, which had been closed since the opening ceremony last month, we started decentralized schooling on the 11th, deciding the time for each class.

In the third year of junior high school, the temperature was measured before entering the school building, and then the desks were lined up in the gym to provide a home room to avoid crowding.

The teacher in charge of the homeroom asked the students how to spend their time during the school holidays and called on them, "I will refrain from taking the test and feel various anxiety, but let's do our best together."

However, since the students stay in the school for only about 2 hours during the distributed school attendance, it is not possible to teach, and it means that the students can learn at home by using videos of each subject made by the teacher.

When I asked the school what they think about September enrollment, which is currently being discussed, one of the female students said, "I'm in favor of September enrollment because the time from April has been cut off. I want to make good memories for the year and graduate. "

Another boy student said, “I can't concentrate on studying on my own, and I'm worried about taking the exam this way, but I'm opposed to admission in September. I'm afraid that various problems may come up After that, I think it's okay to enroll in April as usual. "

Principal Shoba Chiba said, "In terms of academic achievement guarantee, it is rational to start over from September, but I think that a significant social change is necessary to reach that point. It is compulsory education and the entire population changes. I don't think I should be too quick, "he said.
