The kyōiku kanji (教育漢字; literally "education kanji") are kanji which Japanese elementary school students should learn from first through sixth grade.[1] Also known as gakushū kanji (学習漢字; literally "learning kanji"), these kanji are listed on the Gakunenbetsu kanji haitō hyō (学年別漢字配当表(ja); literally "table of kanji by school year").[2] The table is developed and maintained by the Japanese Ministry of Education (MEXT). Although the list is designed for Japanese students, it can also be used as a sequence of learning characters by non-native speakers as a means of focusing on the most commonly used kanji.
Kyōiku kanji are a subset (1,026) of the 2,136 characters of jōyō kanji.[1]
