THE MAKING OF A JAPANESE

What is the marble system? And what would it be like if you had to stop eating at school when a timer went off? Welcome to a Japanese primary school to discover a different culture and different educational methods, where students are expected to learn a lot and are raised to be conscientious. Teachers may be strict, but both adults and children pull together and help each other. The Making of a Japanese illustrates the constant evolution of the Japanese education system and its specific character.
