The Japanese School in Zurich is a full-time Day School with a Saturday School, serving students from age four to eighteen. The Day School comprises a Kindergarten, Elementary, Junior Secondary, an International Class (AM/PM), and High School, all following the Japanese curriculum under a School Committee-led administration. The International Class supports students whose mother tongue is not Japanese, while the Saturday School offers two hours of Japanese-language instruction every Saturday for Kindergarten through High School, including the International High School. The Kindergarten program includes Hiragana preparation. The school's facilities include a gymnasium and a library; there is no dormitory, and meals are eaten only in classrooms. A wide range of after-school activities and language-focused enrichment accompany the core program. Extracurriculars include language tests such as Kanji reviews, the Japan Kanji Aptitude Test, EIKEN, and JLPT, alongside events, exchanges, and community activities that connect students with Zurich life and future pathways.
