修学旅行・入学準備費の無償化条例案を提出へ 都議会共産党

The Japanese Communist Party’s faction in the Tokyo Metropolitan Assembly has announced plans to introduce a new ordinance aimed at eliminating costs for school trips and enrollment preparations. This legislative proposal seeks to alleviate the financial burden on families by making these essential educational expenses free of charge. By targeting these specific areas, the party intends to promote greater equity in access to school-related activities and supplies. The move reflects a broader push to address the rising costs of public education within the capital. The assembly will now prepare to review the details and potential impact of this policy change. Supporters argue that such measures are necessary to ensure that every student can participate fully in their academic life regardless of their household's economic situation.

This proposal highlights ongoing political efforts to reduce the out-of-pocket expenses for families in Tokyo's public school system.
