The Teachers' Union League held a press conference demanding improvements to the student record book (student record) system. They pointed out that the student record book is focused on entrance exam competition, leading to excessive workload for teachers in terms of 'record writing,' and that the current situation emphasizes only 'positive records' rather than genuine evaluations. They argued that since the introduction of the high school credit system, the amount of detailed abilities and special skills recorded has surged, forcing teachers to devote a significant amount of time to record keeping. The Teachers' Union demanded a review of the student record book's college entrance linkage function, abolition of the obligation for lengthy descriptions, and protection of teachers' evaluation rights.
