Genki Japanese and Culture School (GenkiJACS) Kyoto School Relocation and Expansion Announcement

The Kyoto school of Genki Japanese and Culture School (hereinafter referred to as "GenkiJACS"), operated by Global With Us Co., Ltd., has relocated and expanded its campus, and has commenced operations at the new school building.

GenkiJACS Kyoto School utilizes Kyoto, a leading city in Japan attracting global attention, as its learning field, developing practical education centered on Japanese language instruction, incorporating cultural experiences, tourism, and local interaction. With learners of diverse ages, from youth to working adults, gathering across nationalities and generations, we aim to foster individuals who connect the world and Japan by deepening their understanding of Japanese culture and society while experiencing diverse values.

Kyoto, as a global tourist city with history, culture, and tradition, welcomes many foreign tourists and international students. In recent years, not only foreign tourists visiting Japan for sightseeing but also those interested in Japanese culture and society have increased, leading to a growing desire to study in Kyoto and rising expectations for studying abroad in Japan and Japanese language education. Against this backdrop of social change, GenkiJACS Kyoto School will respond to the increasing demand for Japanese language learning needs, offering opportunities to deepen understanding of Kyoto's unique culture and Japanese society, in addition to improving Japanese language proficiency.

Furthermore, the new school building will also be the base for the Daiichi Gakuen High School Kyoto Campus, part of the With Us group, which is scheduled to relocate this autumn. We aim to create an international exchange-oriented educational environment that leverages the group's strengths, where international students and Japanese high school students learn in the same building and can experience each other's cultures and values through daily interaction.

With the advancement of international human resource exchange and multicultural coexistence, Japanese society requires the creation of an environment where people can understand each other and grow together, transcending differences in nationality and culture. In this context, the With Us group, with the philosophy of "nurturing people who can contribute to society" as one of its tenets, is committed to providing educational opportunities for learners both domestically and internationally. Taking this opportunity of the relocation of GenkiJACS Kyoto School, we will further strengthen our role as an educational hub connecting the world and Japan in the region where history and tradition thrive, such as Kyoto.
