Résultats principaux

3 options were proposed:

  • Maximum time at school in class (whole days, no remote learning)
  • Mix of school classes and remote learning (1/2 days with remote learning)
  • Remote learning only (CPD) as since March 9th

Once the responses have been consolidated in one of the 3categories the results show:

Choisce Frequency

CPD 38
Mix classroom/Remote learning 109

By level :

Other CPD Mix classroom/Remote learning Classroom only
Elémentaire - Elementary school 16 12 44 41
Maternelle 5 2 9 27
Secondaire (collège) - Junior-Hi School 14 21 44 14
Secondaire (lycée) - High School 5 3 12 10

A majority clearly emerges in Maternelle: class room only without remote learning.
In Elementary, the results are very close to a tie between class room only no remote learning and 1/2 days in class with remote learning.
For Junior-hi and High-school, remote learning is leading with a desire for social interactions on site.

Looking at the data by commuting mode:

Slicing the data, sorting by families with children commuting by public transportation:

Other CPD Mix classroom/Remote learning Class room only
Elémentaire - Elementary school 7 5 18 16
Maternelle 3 0 4 2
Secondaire (collège) - Junior-Hi School 11 13 31 13
Secondaire (lycée) - High School 3 1 8 7

Isolating data from responding families that are exclusively using the LFI Tokyo school bus system:

Other CPD Mix classroom/Remote learning Class room only
Elémentaire - Elementary school 8 2 16 25
Maternelle 2 2 3 15

In Elementary school, there is a clear difference between those leveraging the school bus and the others: choice for Classroom only predominant for the the former group.

For those coming by car or other transportation modes:

Other CPD Mix classroom/Remote learning Class room only
Elémentaire - Elementary school 3 3 15 5
Maternelle 0 0 4 9
Secondaire (collège) - Junior-Hi School 4 7 11 0
Secondaire (lycée) - High School 4 2 5 1

Considering the commute time
