About OWIS

One World International School (OWIS) provides K-12 education across eight global campuses, including multiple locations in Japan.

Globally, our curriculum is grounded in inquiry-based learning and delivered in English within a diverse international setting. Educators strive towards the individual growth of each student to help them become lifelong learners.

At OWIS, we combine rigorous academics with a student-centred approach, incorporating Montessori principles and engaging teaching methods that enhance learning outcomes by focusing on students’ strengths.

The curriculum emphasizes collaboration, social interaction, and teamwork, making learning both enjoyable and memorable. This holistic approach prepares our students to be the leaders of tomorrow, ensuring they are well-equipped for the opportunities of an interconnected world.

Teaching them to socialize with their peers and allowing them to learn to be respectful and empathetic of people of all backgrounds.
