The highest course is for students who aspire to Japan’s top universities but want a broader education than is provided in many elite high schools. Yamamura International High School provides surplus lessons to help these students fulfill their academic potential, while also providing the rich and varied opportunities for which the school is famous.

  • Life design course

    The life design course has been designed for those students who wish to focus their studies on key vocational skills. The course has two specializations – nutrition and preschool education.

    • Nutrition

      Partnering with Kagawa Nutrition University, Yamamura Kokusai provides advice and lessons tailored to develop professional skills in land cultivation, food preparation and nutrition. Students will have the support and opportunity to take professional diplomas. We also have our own allotment for the cultivation of plants throughout the year.

    • Preschool education

      In collaboration with our affiliated tertiary education college, Yamamura College, we offer practical lessons and training towards qualifications to hold coveted qualifications to work at nurseries and kindergardens. Expert lessons and advice give our students the advantage they need in this competitive and essential profession.
