<About Learning Programming
Programming education has been made compulsory in elementary schools since FY2020 and in junior high schools since FY2021. In addition, "Information I," which includes programming, has become a compulsory subject in high schools from the 2022 academic year. In addition, "Information (Programming, etc.)" is scheduled to be added to the subjects on the Common University Entrance Test in 2025. Programming is attracting attention as an education to cultivate the ability to think logically and creatively to solve problems in the information society.
