Education & International Schools
When choosing a place to live, it is also very important to consider where your child will attend school. At Ken Corporation, we have supported many cases where our clients' children attend international schools. In this section, we will ask people from each international school to tell us about the school and its features.
Convenient Properties for International Schools
With growing population of foreign-origin families and interest in international education from local Japanese family, there are many international schools in Tokyo. They tend to live close to school; hence there are international communities in the
schools’ surrounding area.
Major international school offers school bus for students, but their bus routes are rarely open to public for security reason. For such information, please ask to each school or to our agents.
