Outline of Final Research Achievements

The purpose of this study is to clarify what kind of supports are necessary for learning and career for children in foster facilities, especially , after the completion of compulsory education . For that purpose, we conducted an interview survey on children's care facilities and a questionnaire survey on child foster facilities. As a result, although certain learning supports have been carried out at the child foster facilities, there are restrictions on the career choice in terms of economics, the problem of the child, the lack of resources supporting post-retirement, etc. ware strongly recognized as difficulties on supports. For the support of universities admission, the need for economic support has prominently been acknowledged.
