An Innovative Learning Journey
Junior Secondary is a time of transition for students’ educational journey as they adjust to new learning methodologies, educators and social situations. During this period, they assume greater responsibilities, enjoy newfound independence, and gradually prepare for academic challenges, all while we combine rigorous academics with creative exploration and character development to shape well-rounded, forward-thinking global citizens. Our commitment to holistic education mirrors our approach at OWIS Osaka, where we share a common vision of nurturing well-rounded individuals.

After-school activities may often include community involvement where students are introduced to the concept of community service and local engagement. Such activities are supervised and structured with an emphasis on learning the value of community contribution.
