Inquiry-Based Learning and Eclectic Approach to Education

Our educational system aims to lead our students into a more autonomous learning by promoting curiosity, wonder, joy and engagement. We believe that it is through inquiry-based learning and using the different approaches to learning that will greatly benefit students to become real life-long learners, and most importantly become active participants in the society within Okinawa, Japan and in the world.

Student Life

Situated in the commercialized part of Okinawa, Okinawa Global Academy tries its best to provide a conducive learning environment that will expose students to nature for them to play and explore around. The school settings will also promote the "principle of environment and spaces wherein the school premises will offer places for children and adults to research and live together".
We also have programs within our curriculum that emphasize movement and social interaction with kids within and across grade levels.
After-school club activities across disciplines such as sports, arts and dance will also become available.
