Principal Katsutoshi Wakabayashi gives a speech in English through the school's public address system at Gunma Prefectural Chuo High School every Wednesday morning, and all notices around the school are now in English.
The intention is to expose the students to as much English as possible.
"By turning the entire school into an English environment, students have the maximum opportunity to use the language," Wakabayashi said. "This is what they need to learn a foreign language."
