J's International School in Tokyo is a kindergarten school, which introduces children to the vast world of knowledge through several games and co-curricular activities. The school was founded in 2002 by two women as a tribute to the dead son of one of them. The school is for children between the age groups of 1.5 to 9 years. After the completion of school the students are expected to get admitted to a formal school.
The teaching faculty of J's International School is very meticulous about nurturing the young students. The age, when the children are first introduced to J's International School is not the age for formal education. So the teachers take it upon themselves to arouse the curiosity among the students on various topics. Also, a lot has to be done, to provide the children with comprehensible answer to their questions.
