Japanese education is divided into elementary school, junior high school, and high school. Students spend six years in elementary school, three years in junior high school, and another three years in high school. The school year in Japan starts in April. Japanese elementary schools are different from those in other countries in their approach to lunch. In Japan, students are provided with school lunch, and some take turns serving it to their classmates. In other countries, cafeteria staff typically handle this task. Japanese students are taught how to be independent even at a young age. Being independent can help them become successful in life.
