The school hosts Cambridge English examinations such as Young Learners, KET, PET, FCE, and CAE. The facilities were designed in 1977 by renowned Mexican architects Manuel Rosen Morrison and Pedro Ramírez Vázquez and are equipped with up-to-date technology to support learning.

Liceo Mexicano Japonés (LMJ), located in the prestigious Jardines del Pedregal neighborhood of southern Mexico City, was established in 1977 as a symbol of friendship and cooperation between Mexico and Japan. The school offers a highly unique educational model divided into two main branches: a Mexican section that aligns with SEP and UNAM standards, and a Japanese section that follows the rigorous curriculum set by Japan's Ministry of Education. Serving students from preschool through high school, the institution provides a trilingual environment where Spanish, English, and Japanese are actively taught. The campus is celebrated for its exceptional facilities and commitment to forming globally minded citizens. A hallmark of the LMJ experience is its deep integration of Japanese culture, history, and traditions into daily life. This is most vividly demonstrated through its highly anticipated annual events—the Undokai (a traditional Japanese sports day) and the Bunkasai (a cultural festival)—which unite students, parents, and faculty. By blending intensive academic preparation with strong foundational values of honesty, respect, and order, Liceo Mexicano Japonés provides a structured, bicultural environment aimed at developing students into internationally competitive leaders.
