Inquiry-Driven Curriculum
Inquiry-Driven Curriculum
OWIS Tsukuba is dedicated to fostering curiosity, critical thinking and a love of learning. Our inquiry-based, real-life and role-play scenarios, allow students to explore real-world problems and identify solutions through experience rather than textbooks.
Vibrant Learning Spaces
Our indoor spaces are carefully designed to allow students to get plenty of air and natural light, while our outdoor spaces are welcoming spots for our students to engage in active play and learn from their experiences.
Healthy, Happy Students
Our professional teachers are trained to keep students happy and safe. From checking in on their emotional well-being each day, to doing risk assessments for activities, excursions, and classroom resources.
Not only are our teachers trained in handling bullying and conflicts, we also teach students to be kind to one another and demonstreate compassion at every level of the curriculum.
Well-Rounded Development
We nurture confident learners; our programmes have the best balance of academics and extracurriculars, which help develop critical life skills.
Witness how we nurture students in a multicultural environment, empowering them to grow up with the values of acceptance, tolerance, kindness, and compassion.

This allows for the sharing of best teaching practices, real-world global exchange, and the ability to move between schools around the world with minimal hassle.
Optimal Student-Teacher Ratio
We focus on giving individualised support and attention to every student. Our optimal student-teacher ratio and smaller classroom sizes testify to this commitment.
Transparent Fee Structure
Our fee structure is transparent and our fees are affordable too, which gives every child in Tsukuba the opportunity to receive high-quality international education in Japan.
The Global Perspective
Our students come across people from other cultural and religious backgrounds and ethnicities. They learn to understand the values of diversity, inclusivity and tolerance.
Love for Learning
We aim to make learning a happy experience for learners. This may mean addressing their educational needs with methodologies that work for them.
