This article focuses on extended education supported by parents and the community at school and its impacts on schoolteachers' perceptions towards their work in Japan. A national survey using random sampling on elementary schoolteachers was conducted by the author; the results were used to analyze the relationships between the following variables: the existence of SSRHs, parent- and community-supported extended education, and teachers' perceptions toward their work and that of the local network. While several studies in the field have focused on extended education's effects on children, the current study is valuable because it discusses how extended education can affect other educational stakeholders. This study's findings therefore identify a new area of investigation that can be used to evaluate extended education's efficacy.
