Corekara KIDS, a programming school attended by approximately 1,000 students across 19 locations nationwide.
Operated by Corekara Inc. (Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo / Representative Director: Yusuke Imaizumi), this school for elementary and junior high school students is currently expanding with new openings across Japan.
Behind this growth is its unique teaching material, which is thoroughly committed to "being engrossed while having fun."
When it was launched in 2019, the number of students stagnated at around 20 for a year.
However, in 2020, returning to the origin of "What kind of learning makes children want to do it?", the teaching materials were completely revamped.
It made a significant shift from "forced learning" to "learning like playing, and realizing you're engrossed."
As a result, children developed a proactive attitude to enjoy learning, and the number of students exceeded 100 in just one year. It has now grown into a school that continues to expand nationwide.
This time, we have newly opened the Kita-Urawa classroom in Saitama City, Saitama Prefecture.
Urawa is currently part of Saitama City, a central area of Saitama where the prefectural office and other facilities are concentrated. It is known as an educational city with a high level of education, a calm atmosphere, and a safe place to live. The area around the station is highly convenient with everything necessary for daily life, while quiet residential areas spread out a little further away. It also has good access to Tokyo, making it a charming area that combines livability and comfort, convenient for commuting.
Against this background, 'Corekara KIDS', a programming school that fosters thinking skills while learning happily like a game, has newly opened in Kita-Urawa. We are currently accepting applications for trial lessons.
Even children who are new to programming can develop "thinking skills" and "creativity" while learning happily like a game.
■ Background of opening (Market trends)
With programming education becoming compulsory in elementary schools from the 2020 academic year, interest in IT education for children is increasing year by year. This is not merely for acquiring computer operation skills, but one of the important objectives is to foster "computational thinking."
Computational thinking refers to the ability to organize things in order, repeat trial and error, and derive optimal solutions. This ability is attracting attention as a fundamental skill required not only in the IT field but in all fields in the future.
In addition, against the backdrop of increasing demand for AI and digital talent, the importance of education that fosters "thinking skills" and "problem-solving skills" has become widely recognized.
"I want to start a new習い事 (extracurricular activity)."
"I want my child to acquire skills useful for the future."
We receive strong support from such parents.
In recent years, while programming education is spreading nationwide,
"Which classroom to learn in" is becoming more important.
Corekara KIDS provides a learning environment where students can continue to enjoy learning, based on the teaching materials and instructional know-how cultivated in our directly managed classrooms.
Also,
To address concerns such as "I'm worried if I can continue" and "I'm worried if I can keep up even if I'm a beginner,"
We provide careful support tailored to each child.
