Gyosei International School

The main school has two integrated departments, one section conducted predominantly in English, with supplementary French and Japanese instruction, and the other conducted entirely in Japanese. The school is a complete primary and secondary educational system, with six years for elementary, three for junior high, and three for high school.

Parallel to the two departments is the "Yohane" program, which is an experimental school where the students study at their own pace and choose their own courses of study. Teachers for this department are employed as counselors for the students, rather than conducting conventional classes.

History

Gyosei International Senior High School was established in 1979 by those operating Gyosei High School in Kudan, Tokyo. In 1981 the junior high school division opened on a shared site with the high school. In 1984 the two schools were re-established as a separate entity.[4]
