Teikyo School UK was founded in 1989 in the beautiful countryside near Windsor Castle just outside London. The lush green campus provides an ideal environment for learning and sports, and its facilities include a classroom block, boarding houses, a football field, a sports hall, and an indoor swimming pool. The school’s primary aim is to improve our students’ English skills. We provide a holistic proficiency in English by focusing on both practical language skills – through conversation lessons with British native speakers – and the theoretical knowledge that is a requirement at university entrance examinations in Japan. We monitor each student’s ability closely and carry out regular English assessments. We can also provide appropriate guidance on Higher Education to students wishing to study in Japan, as well as in the UK and abroad. Our second aim is to foster globally-minded individuals through international opportunities. We provide a range of cultural exchange activities, including events with local schools. Such opportunities to develop as a cultural ambassador will undoubtedly help students to become more globally-minded. Our third aim is growth through campus life. Through communal living, students learn to empathize with and respect others. Friends made at the school will undoubtedly become lifelong friends. We prioritize ‘health and safety in caring for our students and do our utmost to ensure they have an enjoyable boarding experience. Lastly, our Football Course is also one of the school’s main features. Originally introduced in 2008, the curriculum changed significantly in April 2015 to include joint practice and matches with a local academy school. The course is unique in combining improvement of football skills, as well as obtaining a Football Association approved coaching license. We hope that after completing their studies, students will have grown into globally-minded individuals ready for the next step in their life. View full school

Teikyo University was founded in 1966 with just two faculties, Economics and Liberal Arts. Today, we are a comprehensive university extending to ten faculties in three fields—medicine, humanities, science and technology, and ten postgraduate streams. We have around 24,000 students at five campuses, mainly in the Tokyo area. The University boasts a proud record of sporting achievements and a strong tradition of excellence in medicine. Our educational philosophy of "one's way" represents an approach to life that encourages students to equip themselves with the skills and knowledge for independent thinking and individual creativity, to take responsibility for their actions and outcomes. We offer a wide range of support schemes to assist students in achieving this core goal. Through applied programs, we aim to develop skilled human resources: Recognize that achievement comes from effort. Have open minds and extensive knowledge. Think from an international perspective. Have creativity and good character. Educational Guidelines: Practical learning that helps students master logical thinking skills through real-world experience. The international perspective helps students learn how to understand and experience other cultures. The open-mindedness helps the student learn a balanced mix of knowledge and skills necessary for your future. The founding principles of Teikyo University are practical learning, international perspectives, and open mindedness. This second principle was indeed ahead of its time when the University was founded. International initiatives such as foreign exchange programs and research traineeships remain a core part of the University's mission today. Currently, we host around 400 foreign exchange students and researchers, primarily from the Asia region. Teikyo University offers a comprehensive and varied curriculum. In business and economics, students can obtain an MBA, study tourism services by taking full advantage of the extensive range of attractions in Japan or develop practical business management and marketing skills.

In this way, Teikyo University students benefit from a broad range of curriculum choices for all interests and vocational aspirations. Teikyo University has cultivated an extensive academic network in Asia, America, and Europe, including overseas campuses such as the Teikyo University of Japan in Durham (United Kingdom) and affiliations with prestigious institutions such as Oxford University. This gives students opportunities to acquire skills and establish networks of contacts that can be utilized back home while at the same time pursuing their own goals. Our modern and well-appointed campuses offer a wide range of programs to support international students and researchers, particularly by encouraging direct contact with Japanese students and researchers. The multilingual staff offers advice and assistance to provide a welcoming environment designed to ensure that every student and researcher enjoys their time at Teikyo University.
