Budo is already compulsory in high schools. The new regulations just make it compulsory in jr. high school.

Now, when I say "budo is/will be compulsory", what I mean is that it is (currently in high schools and will be for jr. high schools) required for schools to include a section on some sort of budo in their physical education curriculum. This is distinct from the kendo/judo/kyudo etc clubs that already exist. Students will not be forced to join one of those. There will simply be a segment of their regular p.e. classes devoted to the history, philosophy, and practice of a budo. What budo it will be will depend on what facilities/equipment the school has, and what sort of experience the teachers have.
