Regarding the English private exam to be introduced in the common test for university admission, Shin Yoshida, chairman of the Japan Private Junior High School and High School Association, met with Koichi Hagiuda, Minister of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology at the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology, and the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology demonstrated strong leadership as planned. I submitted a request to implement it.

 According to the Junior High School, the problem is that the request form has not yet revealed all the dates and venues for the English private exams, and the university has not disclosed how to use the English grades utilization system for university entrance exams. It pointed out.

 In particular, despite the fact that the Eiken Foundation of Japan is a public interest incorporated foundation, not only can healthy people not be able to take the S-Interview equivalent to Level 1, but also if a high school student is a ronin, the application for the first test will be held from April to July. He has severely criticized the efforts as unfair and irrational, such as the end of the period.

 However, the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology has demonstrated strong leadership, saying that the current second year high school students and high school side are already preparing for new entrance exams, and if the introduction is postponed at this point, it may cause even greater confusion. I asked them to do it as planned.

 At the same time, each university will announce how to utilize the university entrance examination English grade utilization system at the latest in September, and the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology will ensure that the examination implementation date and venue will be announced by the issuance of the common ID on November 9. I am requesting guidance from the ministry.
