Global Step Academy International School (GSAIS) is a group of international schools affiliated with Global Step Academy (GSA), which specializes in international education.

GSAIS focuses on nurturing students to become well-rounded individuals through the cultivation of their intellectual, creative, personal, social, and physical abilities. The schools are committed to educating both local and foreign students to be international and independent thinkers. Also, we focus heavily on academic quality, long-term community development, an understanding of diversity, as well as language learning and communication, ethics, self-awareness and mindfulness.

We believe that classroom and co-curricular activities are essential in the child’s development and therefore we put a relatively high focus on sports, music and extracurricular activities where children can fully use their five senses in the learning process, while learning effectively how to function both as an individual and as part of a group through active learning. The ultimate goal is that every student gains the fundamental skill sets and knowledge to become global citizens and be well-prepared to enter elementary school and continue their education as a global citizen, whether it’s an international school or a local school in Japan or overseas.

Students enrolled in GSAIS schools are granted the following benefits.
