Being an authorized IB World School there is a common theme of inquiry and curiosity that lies at the heart of everything we do at K. International. This is something that is obvious from the moment that you enter our classrooms from Kindergarten to Grade 12. You will see our students involved in a range of activities that encourage them to ask questions, to challenge their thinking and to build on their understanding of the world.

As our mission statement explains our vision for learning centers around helping students to develop responsible choices and meaningful contributions. These two ideas that are encouraged and built upon daily through the opportunities and classroom activities that we provide for all of our students.

K. International School Tokyo (KIST) is located in the east of Tokyo at Kiyosumi Shirakawa. The school is easily accessible on the Hanzomon, Oedo and Toei Shinjuku lines. The campus is a recently renovated 3 story building providing a modern learning environment in the heart of Tokyo.

Our well-resourced library is designed to stimulate children’s interest in learning and researching about the world around them. Currently around 52 countries are represented in the student population.

We are at this time the only school in Tokyo authorized to teach all three IB programmes, the PYP, MYP and Diploma programme. KIST is also a regular member of the Council of International Schools.
