Business Overview
In order to contribute to the resolution of issues faced by each school and the improvement of education amid the progress of the “high school-university connection reform,” we launched the “High School and University Faculty and University Staff Exchange Program” in 2018.
Up until the 14th meeting, the “Kyoto High School Teacher Exchange Meeting” was held with the aim of sharing ideas and concerns about school and homeroom management, class improvement, etc., and interacting with each other to solve problems, regardless of the school or the person who set it up.
From the 15th meeting, the name was changed to “Kyoto High School and University Faculty and Staff Exchange Meeting” and it is held for faculty and staff of both high schools and universities as a place to share ideas and concerns about issues faced by both high schools and universities, deepen mutual understanding, transcend positions, and interact to solve problems.
