WAO High School (located in Okayama City, Okayama Prefecture, Principal: Tsuyoshi Hirata), a correspondence high school under the school corporation WAO Mirai Gakuen, where students can study philosophy, science, and economics through liberal arts exploration, will hold an online seminar titled "High School Study Abroad Seminar: Can't you make your study abroad dream come true? ~How to study abroad for a long time without repeating a year~" on Saturday, June 20.
"I want to challenge myself abroad. But if I study abroad at my current school, I'll graduate late."
Don't you have such worries?
Actually, by utilizing the correspondence high school system, there is a new form of high school study abroad that aims to graduate in three years "without repeating a year." In this seminar hosted by WAO High School, we will clearly explain the specific "mechanism." Furthermore, we will connect live with seniors who are currently working hard in Australia.
"Is it okay even if I'm not good at English?" "What is life like there, really?"
Please come and hear the "real voices" of the seniors that are not found on the internet or in brochures.
Junior high and high school students interested in studying abroad, and their parents, please join us to find hints to broaden your future options.

Features of the WAO High School Global Course
We provide online programs for long-term high school study abroad in Australia and overseas university advancement (USA, Malaysia, etc.). Utilizing the characteristics of a correspondence high school, we have a system that enables long-term study abroad without repeating a year. In addition to study abroad agency functions such as counseling and application support for overseas university admissions, we also offer English training all in one place, a strength not found in other schools.
WAO High School Mission
To cultivate people who seek their own happiness with rich culture and a righteous heart, and contribute to society.
WAO High School Vision
To make it the norm in society to build one's own foundation through philosophy and carve out the future.
WAO High School Value
The philosophy of WAO Corporation, which has pursued the "joy of learning" for approximately 50 years.
Foster the ability to think independently through repeated dialogue and learning philosophy.
Support system to realize individual futures such as further education, study abroad, and entrepreneurship.
Virtual campus connecting with diverse peers nationwide.
Effective learning style that expands online and deepens in reality.
Why WAO High School teaches "Philosophy"
In this era full of diversity and change, absolute correct answers are not given. Therefore, the ability to build future society with rich culture and flexible ideas is necessary. "Philosophy" is a language game that continuously hones "thinking" in search of "universally valid" definitions of human activities. By re-examining the society we live in from a philosophical perspective, the world we see now can look completely different, and familiar social issues can be reconsidered from new viewpoints. With the hope that high school students will have such "eye-opening" experiences, we conduct classes that emphasize dialogue and thorough "thinking."
Learning deepens online and in reality at WAO High School
As a correspondence high school, WAO High School offers learning that leverages both online and real-world benefits. Through the virtual campus, which connects from anywhere in the country, we hold daily homeroom sessions, joint learning activities like morning sessions, and school events, deepening dialogue among remote students and faculty. The campuses in Okayama, Tokyo, and Osaka have "commuting courses" where dedicated coaches support each student individually to establish learning rhythms and practice programming and English conversation. Furthermore, the "individual instruction course" allows students to receive learning support by attending "Individual Instruction Axis" with over 500 locations in all 47 prefectures. This course provides personalized support from university entrance exam preparation to relearning.
