Press Release
The International School Times Relaunches as an Information Platform for International Schools, English Education, and Overseas University Pathways
Delivering clearer, more accessible guidance on international education, from school selection to university admissions

The International School Times (IST) has officially relaunched its website.
https://istimes.net
IST is a specialized media platform covering international education topics including international schools, English education, domestic and overseas university pathways, entrance examinations, and global career trends. Through this relaunch, the platform has redesigned both its website structure and editorial content to make information more accessible for parents, students, and education professionals.
In recent years, interest in international education has grown significantly in Japan, expanding the range of educational and academic pathways available to families. At the same time, information related to schools, admissions systems, and university pathways remains fragmented and often difficult to compare. Through perspectives from educators and academic specialists, IST aims to make international education easier to understand and navigate.
What Readers Can Explore on IST: From School Selection to University Admissions and Future Careers
Following the relaunch, IST will continue expanding coverage across topics including:
Educational philosophies and leadership at international schools
English education and academic development
Admissions trends and successful preparation strategies for junior high school, high school, and university entrance examinations
Domestic and overseas university pathways
Global careers and future-ready skills
Education reform and emerging learning trends
In addition to parents researching school options, IST aims to provide valuable information for junior and senior high school students considering future university and career pathways, as well as for education professionals.
Content Features: Bringing Together Perspectives from Educational Practitioners and Experts
IST publishes interviews with international school leaders and educators, analysis of admissions trends, and research-based perspectives on teaching and learning.
In addition to covering school philosophies and educational models, the platform focuses on practical and actionable insights, including changes in entrance examinations, approaches to developing English proficiency, and preparation for university admissions.
In recent years, educational pathways for students in Japan have become increasingly diverse, including the expansion of English-based entrance examinations at the junior high school level and growing interest in overseas university pathways. IST aims to provide ongoing coverage and expert perspectives on these evolving trends.
