The purpose of this paper is to find the reason why private schools are expanding so rapidly in Japan. In central Tokyo more than one-third of the children take private junior high school examinations. Most of these children start their preparation in fourth or fifth grade of primary school. They must prepare for these examinations for more than two years! I examined the Japanese private school boom by focussing on privatization and other related theories. Recently the United Kingdom and Japan reformed their educational systems. The former reformed the educational system dramatically. They made schools more responsive to market forces, gave more power to the parents, privatized schools, introduced the industrial model into the state school administration, differentiated schools, and abandoned universal schooling. However Japan reformed her educational system only slightly in comparison. Instead of reforming state schools, Japanese parents are choosing private schools. Parents cannot take part in the administration of these schools but the schools are responsive to market forces.
