In particular, the entrance time was not decided, and I was able to enter at any time.。
afterwards、Through the Meiji Restoration that brought Westernization to Japan、
From the beginning of the Meiji era、Follow the West
September admission became the mainstream。

But soon、Also affected by the new government's wealthy and strong military system、
Various new years will start in April。

to fit this fiscal year、At educational institutions such as terakoya
To encourage april admission。
In addition、By the start of the army enlistment delivery in April、
This too、due to the change in the enrollment period to April、
In 1908, the elementary school was officially admitted in April.。

In contest、Imperial Universities and Old High Schools

These countries have something in common.、
In both cases, the new school year starts after the summer vacation.。
(New Zealand and Singapore in the Southern Hemisphere
Because the season is the opposite of Japan、January and February are the dawn of summer vacation.)
Also、as solemn as Japan (as if you can't sneeze)
