Fukuoka International School

On Air: Info from Fukuoka Prefecture/2015.12.14(Mon)/13:25～

Here is information from Fukuoka Prefecture.

Today’s announcement introduces Kyushu’s one and only international school, the Fukuoka International School.

Do you know there is a school in Fukuoka for foreign children living in Kyushu? There are currently around 200 students, with over 20 different nationalities, between the ages of 3 and 18, learning at the Fukuoka International School. The teaching staff itself comes from varied backgrounds, and is made up of staff with 13 different nationalities.

As your ears fill with the sound of English conversation in the halls, you know you are in an international education facility the moment you walk through the doors. The Fukuoka International School was established 25 years ago, born of the concept “to promote the internationalization of Fukuoka, preparing a foundation that supports globalization is necessary."

From there, the school was erected in Fukuoka City’s Sawara ward, through support from the government of Fukuoka, and in cooperation with local private financial interests. Ever since, the school has been involved in a multitude of endeavors and has been an important focal point of international education for the children of foreign residents, with a drive to provide quality education at its core.

It is centered around the motto, “high international academic standards” and is highly regarded both domestically and internationally. The Fukuoka International School is one of the few schools in Japan recognized by the American Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC) and also authorized to offer the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IB). Graduates 18 years of age or older who come from schools recognized by the WASC, and who have completed a 12 year educational course at such an institution, are qualified to enter universities in Japan as well as those overseas. The IB program, as well, is recognized by universities around the world, permitting IB degree holders to enter their institutions. Graduates from the Fukuoka International School are active in domestic and international universities.

In these ways, the Fukuoka International School is more than just an educational facility for the children of foreigners. More than that, it makes a contribution to the world, from here in Fukuoka, Kyushu, by producing young men and women with skills that make them world-class.
