Part 9/9:
Japan's education system stands at a crossroads. While maintaining high standards and respect for the teaching profession, it must also confront the realities of overwork and burnout among its educators. Addressing these issues is not only vital for teachers’ health and happiness but also for ensuring that students receive quality education in a supportive and sustainable environment. Only with concerted efforts to reform working conditions and provide adequate support can Japan hope to secure the future of its education system and the well-being of its teachers.
