My kids also seem to really enjoy their teacher's mentorship style. My children have started the PYP curriculum and are learning lots of things that I wish I had learned as a kid. My child loves the gardening classes, the school pet and anything to do with nature. We love to see that the education is very tangible and hands-on." ![Jeremy Carlson](https://pub-0d734ba75fbe49448286a3fa11cc7662.r2.dev/assets/testimonial-jeremy_carlson.webp) #### Jeremy Carlson Parent of Students in Early Childhood and Primary School "OWIS's legacy and big brand presence were a focal point for us.

Our Open Campus presentations are conducted in the language that all participants can understand. If everyone speaks Japanese, the presentation will be in Japanese. If any participant only speaks English or Chinese, we will provide bilingual support on the day as needed. #### Can I bring my children to the event? Absolutely! We warmly welcome families to attend together. It's important for your child to experience the school environment firsthand and see if they feel "I want to study here!" We encourage you to let them explore our classrooms and play areas to get a genuine feel for our campus. ### Access & What to Bring #### Is parking available? Yes, we have a large parking area available on campus. You are welcome to drive and park when visiting OWIS Tsukuba. #### Do I need to bring indoor shoes or slippers? No, this is not necessary. You may enter the building in your regular shoes. ### Programme & Other Enquiries #### Will there be time for individual consultation? Yes, we have dedicated time for individual consultation during the programme. Please feel free to ask our admissions team about enrolment procedures, tuition fees, curriculum details, or any other questions you may have. #### Can I arrive late or leave early? We kindly ask that you arrive at the scheduled start time. If you have unavoidable circumstances, please contact our office in advance so we can make appropriate arrangements. ### About OWIS Tsukuba #### Is there a required English level for admission? There is no specific English proficiency requirement for admission. An English assessment will be conducted upon entry, and based on your child's level, they will be placed in an appropriate class. English support classes (AEP: Academic English Programme) are also provided as needed, so students who are new to English can join with confidence. #### I'm worried whether my child can keep up with lessons. Is there support for students who are not confident in English? Yes. We offer a comprehensive support system tailored to each student's level. This includes English support classes, after-school intensive English clubs, and multiple support programmes. Classes are kept small (up to 18 students), allowing teachers to provide individualised attention and support. #### What commuting options are available? We offer a variety of commuting options, including a dedicated school bus service, private car drop-off, and public transportation (approximately 15 minutes on foot from Numata Station). The school bus routes are scheduled to be expanded in the future. #### Is mid-year enrolment possible? Yes, mid-year enrolment is possible. OWIS operates a rolling admissions system, allowing students to enrol at any time during the academic year. While August (new academic year), December (Term 2), and April (Term 3) are recommended entry points, we provide support to ensure a smooth transition regardless of when students join. #### Can students transfer smoothly from Japanese public or private schools? Absolutely. Our experienced admissions counsellors provide careful guidance and support throughout the transfer process to ensure a smooth transition. ![](https://pub-0d734ba75fbe49448286a3fa11cc7662.r2.dev/assets/wave-section.svg) [SIGN UP NOW](https://adm.owis.org/jp-tsukuba-en-brand-open-campus#form) ## Schools Across Borders: Fostering Global Citizenship ![Global School Group](https://pub-0d734ba75fbe49448286a3fa11cc7662.r2.dev/assets/tsukuba/logo-gsg.webp) 64 Campuses 45,000+ Students 70 Nationalities 11 Countries 5,000+ Faculty 12 School Brands ![World Map](https://pub-0d734ba75fbe49448286a3fa11cc7662.r2.dev/assets/tsukuba/world-map.webp) ## A Proven Legacy of Success Worldwide ![OWIS Singapore](https://pub-0d734ba75fbe49448286a3fa11cc7662.r2.dev/assets/tsukuba/campus-singapore.webp) ### OWIS Singapore ![OWIS Surat, India](https://pub-0d734ba75fbe49448286a3fa11cc7662.r2.dev/assets/tsukuba/campus-india.webp) ### OWIS Surat, India ![OWIS Riyadh, Saudi Arabia](https://pub-0d734ba75fbe49448286a3fa11cc7662.r2.dev/assets/tsukuba/campus-saudi-arabia.webp) ### OWIS Riyadh, Saudi Arabia ![OWIS Osaka, Japan](https://pub-0d734ba75fbe49448286a3fa11cc7662.r2.dev/assets/tsukuba/campus-osaka.webp) ### OWIS Osaka, Japan ## Universities Where Global Schools Group Students Got Placements GSG schools have a strong track record of academic achievement, with students excelling in IB, Cambridge, and CBSE examinations.
