The British School in Tokyo, commonly known as BST, is an international private school in central Tokyo with over 1,300 students from over 65 nationalities. BST takes students aged 3–18 that have been rated in all eight areas examined by the Independent Schools Inspectorate (ISI). A third of BST students are neither British nor Japanese and there are no entry requirements other than fluency in English. The curriculum follows the National Curriculum.
The school is based on two sites with students aged 3–11 based at the Azabudai Hills campus and students aged 12–18 based at the Showa campus at Showa Women's University.
As of today, BST is a full member of FOBISIA.
