Epsom College Tokyo (located in Tokyo, hereinafter 'the School') will hold its first official event toward its opening in autumn 2027, the 'Opening Family Admission Briefing', on Saturday, June 6, 2026, at TODA HALL & CONFERENCE TOKYO (Chuo-ku, Tokyo).
About Epsom College Tokyo
The School will provide a world-class education based on the British curriculum for children from the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) to Year 6 (equivalent to the 5th grade of elementary school in Japan).
The curriculum is designed to achieve both academic excellence and the cultivation of character and creativity. In its first year, it will accept students from EYFS to Year 4, with plans to eventually accommodate about 250 students annually.
From EYFS through primary school, children will learn in an environment that fosters creativity, playfulness, and humanity, alongside a solid academic foundation. In addition to fundamental learning such as reading, writing, and arithmetic, age-appropriate Artificial Intelligence (AI) will be introduced to cultivate digital literacy and technological aptitude from an early stage.
A New 'British-style' Option for Primary Education in Japan
What the School offers is not merely English language education. Based on the British curriculum, it provides 'pastoral care' to maximize individual potential and an educational environment that fosters independence. At this briefing, the leadership team will explain in detail the School's vision, educational philosophy, and the new standard for global education in Japan.
'Epsom Global Pathway': A Route from Japan to the World
The School's greatest feature is its strong network with the Malaysia campus. After learning at the Tokyo campus (until Year 6), students will progress to the Malaysia campus from Year 7 onward. They will study for the IGCSE (International General Certificate of Secondary Education), a UK national standard qualification, and A Levels (obtained upon completion of Year 13), widely recognized as university entrance qualifications. We present a unique pathway that smoothly provides access to an international community where students from over 30 countries have studied for more than 10 years, and an educational infrastructure with a high track record of acceptances to Oxford University, Cambridge University, Stanford University, Imperial College London, UCL, Brown University, LSE, and more.
Event Highlights: 'Engagement Activities' for Children Also Held
On the day of the event, in addition to the briefing session for parents, a 'Learning Clinic' will be held where children can actually experience Epsom's teaching methods. This is not simply an entrance exam, but Epsom's unique style of determining how well a child's potential harmonizes with the School's educational environment through dialogue.
