As the effects of the spread of the new coronavirus continue, the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology has told boards of education nationwide not to require negative proof of vaccination or PCR tests for high school entrance exams this year. I have notified you.
The Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT) notified the Board of Education nationwide on the 10th of the considerations for the high school entrance examination to be held this year, saying that there is concern about infection to children and students as the replacement with Delta strains progresses. bottom.
The notification requires that negative proofs such as PCR tests and vaccinations be not a requirement for taking the entrance examination, and that the examinees are disadvantaged because they do not submit negative proofs or have not been vaccinated. I emphasize not to wear it.
In addition, the description of "number of days attended" and "suspension of attendance" will prevent certain examinees who are affected by temporary school closures or distributed school attendance, or who cannot attend school due to infection or anxiety about infection, from suffering any disadvantages. , I'm looking for it again.
I also want you to give the same consideration to entrance exams for elementary and junior high schools.
