Josuikan Bangkok International School

Japanese senior high school in Min Buri that closed permanently on 31 March 2024 after a multi-year decline in Japanese expatriate enrolment.



Japanese senior high school in Min Buri that closed permanently on 31 March 2024 after a multi-year decline in Japanese expatriate enrolment.

Operated as the Bangkok branch of Josuikan High School in Mihara, Hiroshima Prefecture, the school opened in 2008 and ran a full Japanese national curriculum delivered in Japanese, with weekly Thai language classes and daily English conversation built around it. Recruitment was suspended from the 2022 academic year and the school formally closed in March 2024.

The school cited the impact of the pandemic on Japanese expatriate families in Thailand and longer-term demographic pressure from Japan's low birth rate. Families researching options should treat the listing as historical only, and look at the remaining Japanese-curriculum and Japanese-bilingual schools in Bangkok for current provision.
