to the power of asking better questions.
About YES
From Odawara to the world. An international school dedicated to unlocking every child’s full potential.
“Think for yourself, master AI, and stand alongside the world. YES is the school that raises children who can do exactly that.”
The 3 C’s at YES
-
Consideration
Respecting different perspectives and backgrounds — learning and living alongside others.
-
Critical Thinking
Not accepting given answers — asking your own questions and thinking them all the way through.
-
Creativity
Turning ideas into reality — and using them to make a difference in the world.
The YES Method The YES Method: Three Approaches to Deeper Learning
01.
Trilingual Education
Learn language. Shape thinking. Move the world.
At YES, trilingual education is not about learning English, Japanese, and programming simply to speak or write them. It is about understanding the distinct mode of thinking that each language offers — and developing the ability to see the world from multiple perspectives.
02.
Technology That Opens the Mind
In an age when AI can generate countless answers, the most valuable human skill is knowing how to ask the right questions.
At YES, we don’t teach children to be used by technology — we teach them to use it with intention, and to stand on the side that provides the questions.
03.
A Real English Environment
Not learning English. Living in English.
At YES, English is not a subject for tests or a skill to be perfected. It is a living language — one used to connect with people and with the wider world. English is not reserved for special lessons. It exists naturally in the daily life of the school.
The Environment That Supports Learning
A Campus Built with Wood
Where the body feels safe, the mind opens freely.
YES’s campus is built around the warmth of natural wood.
Food That Nourishes
Because eating is living.
The food served at YES is a meaningful part of each child’s learning and growth. Every element — ingredients, seasonings, even the water — is chosen with care. The gut and brain are deeply connected: a healthy gut supports focus, immunity, and emotional balance.
Admissions
YES is not the right school for every family — and we mean that sincerely. That is precisely why we hope you will take the time to explore, ask questions, and discover together with us whether this is truly the right place for your child. We look forward to hearing from you.

少し前のことですが、晴れた３月のとある日、思い出ハイキングに行きました。１年を通して過ごした仲間とのハイキング。１年で子どもたちの体力もアップして、海に山に、たくさん歩いて自然に触れた１日となりました。
It was a little while ago, but on a sunny day in March, we went on a special hiking trip.
A day spent with the friends we’ve been with all year.
Stronger, more confident, and full of energy, the children walked by the sea and through the mountains—embracing nature every step of the way.
