| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A study was conducted to clarify the situation of teachers who taught gymnastics at girls' secondary schools before World War II, and to examine the extent to which the goal of “having to the best of their ability girls' gymnastics taught by female teachers” was actually achieved. Material for this study was acquired from the List of Secondary Schools Personnel.
At first, 76.8% of female teachers who taught gymnastics were graduates of the Women’s Higher Normal School. They taught several subjects. This number had gradually decreased. On the other hand, graduates of gymnastics schools who taught exclusively gymnastics increased, 1906 saw the start of a shift from teachers who taught a range of subjects to teachers who taught exclusively gymnastics. Teachers who graduated from private schools and taught only gymnastics or music and gymnastics in conjunction, became normal. By 1939 female teachers who taught gymnastics had not been assigned to 18.6％ of girls’ high schools.
