Teikyo School United Kingdom

The school aims to nurture individuals who possess a rich humanity, empathy for others, and an international perspective. Its ethos emphasizes independence, honesty, creative problem-solving, and respect for diverse cultures and beliefs. Students are encouraged to become balanced, tolerant individuals who contribute to the international community while developing their own potential.

The school offers four main pathways: the Global Studies Course, the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Programme, the Art Course, and the Soccer Course. The curriculum integrates Japanese and English instruction, with a significant portion of classes conducted in English depending on the course and grade level. The IB Diploma Programme is available for students seeking an internationally recognized qualification, while specialized courses provide focused training in soccer and the arts.

Approximately 85% of graduates advance to universities through comprehensive or recommendation-based admissions. The school supports students in achieving their career goals through a structured three-year roadmap, including guidance on university entrance exams and qualification testing. Many students achieve a proficiency level of Eiken Grade 2 or higher within one year of enrollment.

The school employs a thorough small-group education model, allowing teachers to provide personalized guidance and monitor individual student progress. A dedicated health room is staffed by a school nurse and a health teacher, and a clinical psychologist/certified public psychologist provides counseling services once a week. For final-year students, an individual tutor system is in place to provide one-on-one support for career planning, university applications, and interview preparation.

The school accepts applications for its various courses and offers information sessions, including online and in-person options. Prospective students may apply for scholarships based on academic and personal merit, which are available for the Global Studies course (specifically for those selecting the IB Diploma Programme). Applicants are encouraged to consult with the school regarding admissions and scholarship eligibility prior to formal application.

The academic year includes various school events such as entrance ceremonies, graduation ceremonies, and cultural festivals. Students participate in regular school activities, including sports days and field trips to locations such as Oxford. The school also observes a 'tea time' break during the daily schedule.
