Tucked away in the Al Wasl area, we find the Dubai Japanese School. It’s a splash of pink against the Dubai skyline. The Dubai Japanese School, often shortened to DJS, has been a cornerstone of the Japanese community here since 1980. It was established by the Northern Association of Japanese Community. Imagine a school where almost every graduate returns to Japan for high school. That’s the Dubai Japanese School, as noted by Principal Fumiyoshi Suzuki in 2009. The DJS follows the Japanese curriculum. It offers classes from primary through junior high. The school is right next to Modern High School. It’s also quite close to Jumeira Beach, a popular spot in Dubai. Dubai Japanese School educates children aged four to fifteen. The core subjects, like Japanese, math, and social studies, are all taught in Japanese. They also learn English and Arabic, adding a multilingual layer to their education. Interestingly, the emphasis on English is conversational until the last three years of junior high. Then, formal English instruction takes center stage. The school sits near the bustling Sheikh Zayed Road. The striking pink, single-story building makes it easy to spot. Inside, you’ll find standard classrooms, a gym, and a swimming pool. There are also science and ICT labs. Dubai Japanese School isn’t just about academics. It’s a cultural bridge between Japan and the UAE. Students participate in activities that reflect Japanese traditions, even cleaning the school themselves. This keeps them connected to their cultural roots while living in Dubai.
