Japan has launched a unique initiative to boost tourism called the ‘One-Day Student’ scheme, allowing foreign tourists to experience a day in the life of a Japanese school.

For 30,000 yen (₹17,000), tourists of any age can immerse themselves in school life for a day, according to reports. However, with limited seats available, only 30 participants can take part in this exclusive experience.
