| Though the municipality board of education establishes public schools of compulsory education level, prefectures pay all the salaries of school personnel to prevent causing differences in school personnel quality among municipalities and to secure stable employment of excellent teachers. In addition, the salaries that municipalities should pay are to be jointly paid by the central government and municipalities. Both of them had been sharing the payment evenly for a long time, but in 2006 the central government began paying one third of the payment. Also, an additional 4% of monthly salaries are paid uniformly, because an overtime payment system is not suitable for teacherfs salary due to the importance of the teaching profession and its special working style. | ||||
