If the quality of Japanese schools had anything to do with it, there would be MORE students studying abroad now than in the past. The level of Japanese schooling has been falling recently - largely because of the idiocy of Yutori Kyouiku.
Either way, I don`t think it`s so much the quality of schooling that drives people to study abroad. It`s more the *experience*. Fewer people are choosing to experience something outside of their daily reach. Whatever the reasons are for that, it isn`t really a good thing in the long run.
