This research aims to explore the everyday consciousness, social and gender norms, self-image, career expectation, and aspiration for educational and career attainment among high school students. The findings of the questionnaire survey conducted to high school students in Tokyo show that their consciousness and attitudes depend on the features of schools they attend. The interviews to high school teachers suggest that the gender-biased assumptions underlain in their career guidance to their students vary in schools as well.
