Company Description
With more than 2,000 schools throughout Japan and expanding to the world, we aim to be a general education group that caters to a diverse range of students.
We are a general educational group with a track record stretching 40 years in teaching, nurturing, and opening up futures for children.

With its ‘Apply individual approaches to individuals’ educational philosophy, it continues to expand beyond the 2,000 school network since its establishment.
What we treasure is not just academic development.
