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.
Yaruki Switch Group has developed and continues to develop businesses such as tutorial cram schools at the core, infant schools, English childcare facilities, and bilingual kindergartens not just nationwide but worldwide. 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. We respect each child’s characteristics and nurture their “confidence and motivation” through their successful experience of achieving their goals. “Think for yourself, decide for yourself, and act for yourself”; we help the children to polish their “jibun-ryoku” (self power) and take on challenges in life, opening up their own path without being swayed by the general values and other people’s evaluations.
