GYOSEI INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL

Gyosei International School Corporation is a private school entity officially incorporated in August 1984, receiving approval from the Governor of Chiba Prefecture. Its corporate headquarters are located at 1083 Yana Aza Nijuuyama, Kisarazu City, Chiba Prefecture. The corporation’s foundation is rooted in Gyosei Gakuen, established by the Society of Mary in 1888. The current entity was formed through the separation and independence from Gyosei Gakuen, centered around Gyosei International High School, which opened in 1979.

【Founding Spirit and Educational Features】

The school’s core educational philosophy is anchored in Catholic values, emphasizing three main pillars: "Respect for Personality," "Cultivation of Intellectual Abilities," and "Adaptation to a New Era of Globalization." This mission is designed to nurture universal values and provide children with the essential "power to live" and succeed as active participants in a rapidly evolving international society.

The defining feature of Gyosei is its comprehensive, international education program, offering a seamless learning experience from kindergarten through high school, all aimed at fostering "True Global Citizens." Reflecting its history as a pioneer in education for Japanese returnee students, the school offers robust multilingual education, specifically focusing on English and French. The Primary School utilizes an immersion education approach, where parts of core subjects such as Mathematics, Science, and Art are taught in English. The school provides significantly more instructional hours with native English-speaking teachers compared to public schools, enabling students to target high-level English proficiency certifications (Eiken Pre-1 and 1) during their junior and senior high years.

【School Structure and Environment】

The corporation oversees multiple institutions, including various kindergartens, two primary schools (Kisarazu and Nagareyama), and Gyosei International Junior and Senior High School. Though the high school was initially known as an all-boys boarding school, it is now fully co-educational and continues to offer boarding options, allowing students to develop international discipline and cooperative skills. The school provides a rich natural environment across its extensive campus, facilitating well-rounded development. Students not only acquire knowledge but also engage in sports, arts, and unique programs like the "St. John Laboratory School Course," ensuring harmonious physical and spiritual growth.
