Global Indian International School, Tokyo Campus or GIIS Tokyo (グローバル・インディアン・インターナショナル・スクール, Gurōbaru Indian Intānashonaru Sukūru) is an Indian international school in Edogawa-ku, Tokyo, Japan.[1] It is a part of the Global Indian International School network and it uses the International Baccalaureate Diploma and Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) of India curricula.[2]
History
In July 2006, the school was established, providing education from kindergarten through high school, with English as the medium of instruction. Presently, the institution operates across four campuses in Edogawa-ku, Tokyo.
As of 2022, the school has approximately 1,220 students, with 55% being Japanese nationals, 35% Indian nationals, and the remaining from various mixed nationalities. Initially, there were relatively few Japanese students, but this changed over time due to the growing popularity of international schools among the Japanese population.
In 2022, the Leadership Lecture Series featured Aftab Seth, an Indian diplomat who had served as the Ambassador of India to countries such as Greece, Vietnam, and Japan. The series continued in 2023 with speakers Mr. Suhas Risbood and Mr. Rohit Khandadia, focusing on the topic of "Sustainability."
