Well, you are probably asking about this, because you are having a hard time finding information. What do you have so far? The knowledge I have about Japanese School life comes from Anime. I can tell you what I know. For the timings.... It depends, just like in America. Some school start earlier than others. For example some schools may start at 7:30 while others may start from 8:00 any where to 9:00 am. Entrance into the various Japanese Schools depends by a student s' grades and by difficult entrance exams. The more prestigious the schools the harder the test are. The test consists of different subjects the student is supposed to have learned in their various years of schooling. There are private and public schools. Classes are assigned by the student’s grades as well. If you are the smartest of your class you are assigned to class 1-A, and so on and so forth. Classes range from 1-A, 1-B, 1-C, 1-D, to 1-F. The number also varies, if you are in 1-B for ex, your grades are okay and you are in 7th grade. If you are in 2-C your grades are satisfactory and your in 8th grade. 9th grade is 3; yes middle school starts in 6th and ends in 9th. A student is also ranked by their midterm and final grades. Ranking is important in Japan. Students usually take similar classes like the ones America students take. They take Japanese, Math, Science, History, they chose their electives. By the way English is Mandatory; all students are required to take this language. A typical school year for a student starts in winter and ends in spring. While here in America school starts in fall and ends in summer. Students also are required to use to different types of uniforms. Students use a different (warmer) uniform in the winter and a lighter uniform in the spring. Girl’s uniforms usually include fine dresses; even in public schools girls use expensive uniforms. Uniforms vary greatly form school to school. Boys usually wear suits. In most schools Girls use dresses that resemble sailor outfits. School Activates resemble American after school activities. There are sports and student councils, newspaper clubs, art clubs; music clubs basically any club you can imagine. If you need any more info, I recommend watching school related anime. Though they are usually romantic comedy.
