Our school was established in 1972 as a senior high school attached to Osaka Kyoiku University (OKU).
We have been sending out graduates for over 50 years.
Our school was recognized by the Japanese Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology as a center for the "WWL (World Wide Learning) Program" in 2020, and we are actively engaged in global education.
Students
There are 3 classes in each grade from the 1st to the 3rd of senior high school, and the total number of students is approximately 350.
About half of the students enter the school from Hirano Junior High School attached to Osaka Kyoiku University, and the rest from other junior high schools.
Most students live in Osaka and Nara prefectures, with some commuting from Wakayama, Hyogo, and Kyoto prefectures.
World Wide Learning (WWL) Program
WWL is our school's unique educational program, which is based on Vietnam Study Tour, Cambodia Study Tour, Global Research, English Salon, Students International Conference, and other activities to practice various learning about global social issues.
We aim to nurture global leaders who are active in the world by accumulating numerous global studies.
Vietnam Study Tour
This is a school trip in which all 2nd graders participate. While conducting fieldwork in line with their research themes, students gained an understanding of Vietnamese society, culture, and customs. In addition, students will deepen their understanding of global issues through exchanges and discussions with Ho Chi Minh City Normal University, an overseas cooperative university. The trip will be planned and facilitated by the students who are members of the trip committee, and will be a very fulfilling experience that will last a lifetime.
Cambodia Study Tour
Applicants in 1st and 2nd graders participate in this program. They will visit Siem Reap, Cambodia, to further deepen their research by practicing their assigned research action plans locally. The awareness-raising activities on medical care proposed by the students are actually being utilized locally.
Global Research
1st graders acquire the knowledge and ideas necessary for research, 2nd graders pursue their research, and 3rd graders engage in activities that will lead to the realization of their career paths.
English Salon
After school on Wednesdays, we invite faculty exchange students from Osaka Kyoiku University for an exchange program wuth students using English.
The activities of the English Salon are related to the Cambodia study tour and language training programs, and a large number of students participate.
Students International Conference
This conference is co-hosted by our school and Ikeda Senior High School Attached to Osaka Kyoiku University, where students from a number of schools interact with each other. Students present the results of their global research on posters and interact with international students to discuss and deepen their understanding of global social issues.
