In addition to the credits required to complete a high school course set by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology, students at this secondary school can build their ideas upon a unique curriculum tailored to their career path and destination. The school attracts highly motivated students from Japan and abroad who have high aspirations working for the United Nations and international organizations in the future.
Small group instruction for prompt and reliable academic growth
Our school utilizes small class sizes, highly valued by both students and parents/guardians, as an advantage for ensuring high quality learning.
Such a learning environment provides students with the mentality to recognize, understand, and encourage each other.
Our staff makes use of these small class sizes to fully support each and every student’s growth in knowledge and ability at the appropriate time.
Toward Multilingualism
Multilingualism refers to the ability to communicate in multiple languages. Enhancing and developing students' language abilities is the mission and responsibility of all teachers at our school. Through multilingual education in English, and Japanese, we aim to broaden students' international perspectives and deepen their understanding of various worldviews.
We use the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR) as a benchmark to assess English proficiency consistently. Throughout the year, we also introduce tests such as TOEFL, IELTS, APTIS, and Eiken, helping students acquire advanced language skills required by overseas universities.
The CEFR is an international standard for measuring language proficiency
The CEFR is the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages, a learning, teaching and assessment tool for foreign languages. It is an international benchmark that measures foreign language proficiency across linguistic boundaries and borders. We use WIDA, TOFEL and IELTS, which are used in 100 countries around the world, as a guideline for the acquisition of advanced language skills.
- Intensive Japanese writing skill instruction
- Japanese students learn the "logical structure of the Japanese language" and improve their ability to express themselves in Japanese sentences. This is very useful for learning English and improving other languages and logical thinking.
- Japanese Language Instruction for Foreign Students
- For foreign students, we set goals such as the Japanese Language Proficiency Test (JLPT) to improve their Japanese language skills. Being multilingual in your native language, English and Japanese is a lifelong skill that will serve you well.
