60 schools ranked by the share of students outside their largest nationality group, from 73.6% to 0%. 858 more haven't published it.

How it's ranked

The share of students outside the school's largest nationality group, from the latest annual report the school filed with MEXT. Highest first.

It describes who is in the classroom, not how good the teaching is.

  • Ties are broken by the directory's record order.
  • A value a school sent without a document is shown on its page, labelled as the school's own, but isn't ranked.
  • Schools that are no longer listed aren't ranked.
