Supporting what comes next

Year-round support for the move on to high school, in Japan or overseas. Each path begins at a different time of year, so we set out the full twelve months from the start — whichever route a family chooses, they will not find themselves starting late.

Their Journeys

Each one, somewhere different

Different schools, different pursuits. What they share is that they reach out to the world under their own power.

ISN graduate Taro

High School

Kaisei High School, Tokyo

Taro

Presenting in English has never fazed me, and that is down to ISN. From a young age, making my own slides and speaking in front of people in English was simply part of the day. Only later did I realise how much those six years had pushed me forward.

ISN graduate Ryu

Secondary School

Matsumoto Shuho, Year 1

Ryu

The foundation in English I built at ISN has become my own strength. Being able to reach information from around the world under my own power — that feeling is what carries my learning forward.

ISN graduate Yuki

High School

Senior high school, with club activities at the heart of it

Yuki

The English I learned at ISN is one of the things that supports me today. It became a real strength in my entrance exams too. Being able to learn in that environment is genuinely rare, and I think it is a great opportunity.

ISN graduate Yumi

Secondary School

Tokyo Gakugei University International Secondary School

Yumi

Every day was fun. Nature is close by in Matsumoto, and I feel that running around in the mountains as a child is what widened the way I think now. With English, I can go and find information in sources from abroad myself.
