When are there school breaks (like Spring break in US) in Japan

When are there school breaks (like Spring break in US) in Japan?
I'm trying to find a calendar that shows school and/or job breaks in Japan. So far I know when the holidays are but not when people actualy take vacation. Also, I want to know if their vacation is defined by dates or by weeks: do they take off the second week or April regardless of the date or is it April 3 through April 8 and it doesn't matter wherther it's Monday or Wednesday. Does anyone know about such a calendar? Note: Dates will be different by region and/school, I just want a general idea....

In elementary/junior/high school, in general, (defined by date) Summer : July 20 to August 20 Winter : December 23 to January 7 Spring : March 25 to April 7 In the job, there is no concept of taking a long term vacation for a week or two or more as other countries does. Paid holiday must be more than 10 days in a year but people does not or cannot use it for long term vacation. People take a short vacation in ; Golden Week : April 29 to May 5 Winter : few days or a week around New Year's Day Summer : few days or a week around August 15

I want to live in Japan after high school, Visa requirements

I want to live in Japan after high school, Visa requirements?
My friend and I are planning to live in Japan for a year in our gap year after we've graduated. We're trying to understand Visa's. Looking up different Visa's, I found we can only apply for one kind, the "Cultural Activities - General Visa". However, with this kind of visa it doesn't allow you to get a proper job there. Is there any way we can get a job there with our non-working visa's and just our high school experience? (We'll need to pay for accommodation and food) Make sure everything's legal please! thank you~ xx.

Errr well my dad is Japanese so I'll answer this question in a few hours after I get a hold of him. From what I know Japan has a very very strict system deal with immigration they really don't like foreigners at all. Hell I'm technically Japanese but they consider me a "gaijin" since my mother is white and I look like her.

You need a Japanese firm to sponsor you for the job. And it must be a job for which no Japanese can be found to fill the job. And you need a college degree to teach English.
