About this school
Rugby School Japan (RSJ) is a co-educational day and boarding school and a member of the Rugby School Group, whose first international school opened in Thailand in 2017. It is registered as a school corporation under Japan's Private Schools Act and recognised by the Governor of Chiba Prefecture. The school carries over the UK school's ethos, "The Whole Person, The Whole Point", with an emphasis on pastoral care and character alongside academics.
Pupils join from Year 7 to Year 13 (ages 11–18) and follow a British curriculum leading to IGCSE and A Level qualifications. Families can choose day, weekly boarding or full boarding, and the timetable combines lessons with sport, music, art, service and supervised study through a house system.
The campus sits in Kashiwanoha Smart City, about 30 minutes from central Tokyo on the Tsukuba Express, on a former Chiba University horticulture site. Facilities include:
- science labs, art and design studios, a gallery and a lecture theatre
- a 25 m indoor pool, gymnasium, dance studio and black box theatre
- a rugby and football field, tennis courts, library, music and recording rooms, and a sixth-form centre
