项目摘要

More than 10% of the foreign children of the compulsory education age in Japan are estimated not to be sent any school. Especially the children of South American origin show high rate of non school attendance In following the hypothesis that one of the major factors of their non school attendance lies in their family backgrounds, we have made several researches. And the findings which were derived from those researches are as follows.The foreign parents who stay in Japan as temporary Dekasegi workers tend to work for a very long time and leave their children also for a long time in the day nursery or foreign school (Brazilian school) which are separated from Japanese children's milieu. So they have neither the sufficient time of contact with the parents, nor the occasion of learning the Japanese language, which make them difficult to enter the Japanese school.Because the Japanese compulsory education is not applied to foreign children, the Boards of Education of local communities do no … More t work well to secure the school enrollment of them. Thus, the children whose parents are in an irregular situation, or those whose age is more than 15 years old happen to be rejected by the Board of EducationEven the parents who have stayed in Japan for a long time (for example the ex-Indochinese refugees) have not a sufficient knowledge about the Japanese school system and thus cannot help their children in the school choice. Without the help of teachers and community volunteers, their children would not be able to make adequate choice of their life course.However, we could find some cases of Brazilian pupils who had succeeded to enter a Japanese university. Their hardworking and good orientation made by their teachers would undoubtedly contribute to this results. But, along with these, the parents consistent attitude supporting their children's going to the senior high-school and university plays a crucial role in their success.In this sense, it becomes clear that the supportive activities for the foreign parents are also important for the children's successful integration into the school life.

据估计，日本义务教育年龄的外国儿童中有超过 10% 没有上学，特别是南美裔儿童的失学率很高，这是造成他们失学的主要原因之一。不上学的原因在于他们的家庭背景，我们进行了多项研究，这些研究的结果如下。作为临时德卡塞吉工人留在日本的外国父母往往会工作很长时间并离开他们的家庭。孩子们也很长时间在日间托儿所或外国学校（巴西学校），远离日本孩子的环境，没有足够的接触时间，也没有学习日语的机会，这使得他们很难进入日本学校。由于日本的义务教育不适用于外国儿童，当地社区的教育委员会无法很好地确保他们的入学，因此，父母身份不正常或年龄的儿童。大于 15岁就被教育委员会拒绝即使是长期滞留日本的家长（例如前印度支那难民）也对日本的学校制度了解不够，无法帮助孩子上学如果没有老师和社区志愿者的帮助，他们的孩子就无法对自己的人生道路做出适当的选择。但是，我们可以找到一些成功进入日本大学的例子，他们的努力和良好的方向性。他们的老师所做的无疑会对这个结果做出贡献但是，除此之外，父母一贯支持孩子上高中和大学的态度对于他们的成功也起着至关重要的作用。从这个意义上说，很明显，外国父母的支持活动对于孩子的成功也很重要。融入学校生活的程度较低。
