| Located
in the bustling capital city of Tokyo, India International School
in Japan (IISJ) is a non-profit, co-educational secondary school
affiliated to Central Board of Secondary Education ( CBSE )
New Delhi India.
With a mission
that seeks to educate and empower through knowledge, IISJ
currently offers instruction in kindergarten through to secondary
school. The curriculum is based on that of India's CBSE guidelines.
The teaching staff is made up of certified, highly experienced
teachers.
Thanks to its international
surroundings, IISJ is in a unique position to offer an education
that combines, literally, the best of all worlds. In recognition
of that fact, the student enrollment at IISJ has been growing
steadily since the school opened on August 15, 2004. However,
class sizes are kept small so that students receive consistent,
individual attention from teachers as they proceed from kindergarten
through the upper grades.
Also, because IISJ follows
the national curriculum set by the CBSE India, students
relocating from (and eventually back to) India will not be
disrupting their coursework. In fact, it will only be complemented
by their unique opportunity to live and share in a thriving,
cosmopolitan city.
Indeed, IISJ is a home
away from home. Come and be a part of our family.
