Shenzhen Japanese School, Japanese international school in Shekou Industrial Zone, Shenzhen, China
Shenzhen Japanese School is an international educational institution in Nanshan District that follows Japanese curricula. It features classrooms, sports facilities, and laboratory equipment designed to prepare students for continued study in Japan.
The school was founded in 2004 with backing from the Shenzhen Japanese Chamber of Commerce and approval from China's Ministry of Education. Its establishment reflected the growth of the Japanese community in Shenzhen during the city's economic expansion.
The school maintains Japanese teaching methods and values while adapting to its Chinese setting. Visitors can see a campus that blends Japanese design principles with modern facilities, helping children from Japan continue their education abroad.
The campus is located in Nanshan District and accessible by public transportation, though it sits in a mixed industrial and residential area. Visitors should contact the school in advance, as this is a private institution with restricted access.
Multiple Japanese companies, including Fuji Xerox, played a key role in supporting and funding the school from its inception. This partnership shows how foreign business communities in Shenzhen built educational facilities for their families.
