To understand the needs of foreigners in the national census to promote the establishment of night junior high school September 30 5:21

As the number of foreign workers increased, the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications decided to investigate how many foreigners had not graduated from junior high school in order to understand the needs of night junior high school in the census to be conducted next year.

The census will be conducted every five years for all people living in Japan, and will be conducted next fall.

As the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications has increased the number of foreign workers, technical intern trainees and others have not received sufficient Japanese language education as well as compulsory education. I decided to find out how many foreigners had not graduated from junior high school.

When it comes to night junior high school, it is said that the number of foreigners attending school is increasing in the local governments that have already been set up. I would like to encourage installation based on the results.

The Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications has a policy of conducting surveys on the Internet in order to increase the number of foreigners' responses, in addition to English, so that it can handle five new languages ​​such as Chinese and Vietnamese.
