【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 curriculum, which is thoroughly committed to "being absorbed in learning while having fun."
When it was launched in 2019, the number of students struggled to grow, reaching only about 20 in a year.
However, in 2020, returning to the origin of "what kind of learning makes children want to do it?", the curriculum was completely revamped.
It made a significant shift from "forced learning" to "learning through play, becoming engrossed before you know it."
As a result, children developed a proactive attitude towards learning while having fun, and the number of students exceeded 100 in just one year. Currently, it has grown into a school that continues to expand nationwide.
This time, we have newly opened the Kami School in [Kami City, Kochi Prefecture].

Kami City, Kochi Prefecture, is a town where people can live comfortably in a calm environment surrounded by rich nature. Not only can residents experience the scenery of the four seasons, but there are also strong community ties, forming a warm community. In terms of education, there are many opportunities for nature experiences and learning in cooperation with the local community, creating an environment where children can grow proactively. In addition, childcare support is substantial, making it an attractive place to raise children with peace of mind. Furthermore, access to Kochi City is relatively good, making it an area that balances convenience with a peaceful life.
Against this backdrop, the programming school "Corekara KIDS," where "passion turns into learning," has newly opened in Kami City, Kochi Prefecture. We are currently accepting applications for trial lessons.
Until now, only the "Minecraft Course" was available, but we have newly launched the "Robot Course" and "Game Creation Course."
The learning environment has been further enhanced, allowing even younger children to start smoothly and learn while having fun. We offer learning that can be continued for a long time, tailored to your child's interests and level.
Even children who are new to programming can enjoy learning and develop "thinking skills" and "creativity."
■ Background of Opening (Market Trends)
With programming education becoming mandatory in elementary schools from the 2020 academic year, interest in IT education for children has been increasing year by year. This is not merely for acquiring computer operation skills, but one of its important goals is to foster "programming thinking."
Programming thinking refers to the ability to organize things in order, and to derive optimal solutions through repeated trial and error. 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 expanding demand for AI and digital talent, the importance of education that fosters "thinking skills" and "problem-solving abilities" 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 many parents with such aspirations.



In recent years, while programming education has spread nationwide,
the era where "which school to learn at" is more important has arrived.
At Corekara KIDS, based on the curriculum and instructional know-how cultivated in directly managed schools,
we provide a learning environment where students can continue to learn while having fun.
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.
