Fukuoka Daiichi High School

The school is guided by the founding principle of "Life Polishing through the Extension of Individuality," which encourages students to identify and refine their unique talents, strengths, and interests throughout their lives. The name "Daiichi" is derived from the Buddhist philosophy of "First Principle," representing the pursuit of truth and the development of one's unique identity. The school emphasizes diversity and the importance of nurturing each student's distinct character.

The school offers a broad curriculum divided into General and Industrial departments. General courses include the International Course (International Baccalaureate), General Studies, Confectionery, Music, Athlete Advanced, and Social Psychology.

Additionally, the school operates a wide-area correspondence course.

The school actively utilizes ICT in education, providing every student with an iPad. It offers a wide range of over 50 certification and qualification programs that students can choose from to enhance their professional skills.

The school offers a web-based application process and holds open campus events for prospective students. It provides a scholarship system, including the "Parama Scholarship" for students with exceptional skills in sports, culture, or other unique talents, as well as support for siblings, twins, or children of alumni. Additionally, students may access government-funded tuition support programs, such as the High School Tuition Support Fund and the Fukuoka Prefecture School Fee Reduction Subsidy.

The academic year includes a variety of events such as an entrance ceremony in April, a "Night Sports Festival" in June, and the "Parama Festival" (school festival) in October.
