Enishi International School

Enishi International School emphasizes holistic education within the IB framework, combining academic rigor with personal growth. The school adopts the IB learner profile, guiding students to be inquirers, knowledgeable, open-minded, caring, and balanced, supporting social-emotional development. The Head of School emphasizes nurturing creativity, resilience, independence, and collaboration as part of daily learning. The school offers more than 30 clubs each week to develop social, teamwork, leadership, and communication skills. Dedicated counseling services are provided, including a school counselor to support students' personal and academic journeys and a college counselor to assist DP students with university planning.

Enishi International School has an inclusion/SEN policy within its MYP framework that addresses differentiation, assessment access arrangements, classroom accommodations, and curriculum modification to meet individual learning needs. The school is an IB World School and uses inclusive practices rather than presenting itself as a specialist SEN institution. English-language support and other specialized assistance are considered during admissions through a placement assessment. The school notes EAL or other specialized assistance may be required as part of the placement process. The school provides information about EAL support as a paid service when needed. The specific kinds of SEN categories the school can support are not published publicly.

EAL is considered during the admission process; all students undergo a level test and an interview, and the placement assessment determines whether EAL support or other specialized assistance is required. English-language support is available as needed and is reflected in the tuition/fees structure (EAL Support Fee is charged if required). The language of instruction is English and Japanese, aligning with the school's IB program. The admissions policy explicitly states that placement decisions may determine the need for EAL or other specialized assistance.

Enishi International School provides dedicated counseling services, including a school counselor and a college counselor who support students' personal, social, and academic development.

Students are encouraged to communicate, reflect, and collaborate as part of a balanced, globally minded education. The school's learner outcomes include developing multilingual, inquiry-driven, open-minded and socially aware learners, with emphasis on social-emotional well-being and reflective practice.

Enishi International School has a Child Protection Policy that applies to all members of the learning community, including students, teachers, parents, volunteers and visitors. The policy establishes expected codes of behavior when dealing with child protection issues and ensures safeguarding is handled sensitively, professionally, and in the child's best interests. It commits to safeguarding practice consistent with statutory responsibilities, government guidance, and best-practice standards, and aligns with Japanese law regarding child protection. The policy defines the term 'child' as students under 18 and aims to maintain a safe school environment free of abuse or neglect. The full policy is available via a linked document (drive.google).
