  JINIS is the first full junior boarding school in Japan and is set to become one of the most prestigious schools of its kind. For those of us committed to boarding schools, this type of education has always been missing in Japan – indeed, in Asia generally. JINIS is inspired by the finest schools in the UK, mainland Europe and the USA where excellence rests upon the complete educational experience that only the best boarding schools can provide.
  Yet JINIS is more than that since it also provides a bilingual Japanese-English education with respect for the two languages and the strengths of the different educational curricula and cultures that go with them. In this, it draws upon the experience of a number of international schools and particularly of Institut Le Rosey in Switzerland where I was Head for 17 years. I am proud to be associated with this ground-breaking initiative.

  Jinseki International School (JINIS) is a school that prepares children for life in so many ways. Whilst ensuring that the highest academic standards are achieved, children grow socially and emotionally in a caring and special boarding environment. The School is intentionally small in order to cater for each child’s personal needs and they grow to understand that learning comes in all shapes and sizes.
  It is a school where children learn how to learn, rather than just what to learn, where children learn that service and leadership are linked – that it is only by learning to serve does one learn to lead; where children learn to balance the heat of competition with the good grace of sportsmanship; where children learn that showing kindness and consideration for others is a sign of strength of character not a weakness.
  In this world, where size is everything and consumerisation is such a powerful force, it is a joy to find a school that places children at the centre and learning at the heart of everything.
