A very warm welcome to the BST Primary School. It is a great privilege to be leading this excellent School, offering an outstanding British education from Nursery at age 3 to Year 6 at age 11, with wonderful facilities in central Tokyo.
THE BRITISH SCHOOL IN TOKYO. Situated at the very heart of this dynamic, stimulating city, the BST community is warm and friendly and offers the highest standards of pastoral care.
Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) This is the earliest stage of a child’s education at BST, and covers Nursery and Reception classes. EYFS has seven areas of learning and development: Personal, Social and Emotional Development. Communication and Language.
The Key Stage 1 and 2 curriculum is challenging and designed to give a balanced educational experience covering academic, creative and sporting subjects. The majority of the teaching and learning takes place in the children’s own classrooms and is delivered by the class teacher.
The above fees all constitute a non-refundable, one-time payment for all new pupils joining the school.
The School does not offer sibling discounts. However fees paid by parents for elder siblings will be deducted in full from the calculation of adjusted net income on which bursary decisions are made. Any parent who believes that there may be difficulties in paying the fees for a younger sibling may therefore apply for a bursary for that child.
Any parent who believes that there may be difficulties in paying the fees by the due date should contact the Bursar as soon as they become aware of this.
The Corporate Contribution Program (CCP) is a scholarship program that is available to organisations that take responsibility for the educational expenses of their expatriate employees’ children. Instead of paying Tuition fees and fees of Enrolment directly, companies and organisations agree to make donations requested by the School.
