Matsunaga Gakuen School Corporation

Yamaguchi Kuta, one of Japan’s leaders in education and amateur sports, founded Yachiyo Matsunaga High School as a culmination of over forty years of public and private education, aiming for an ideal education. From the outset, the school incorporated differentiated instruction and a broad elective curriculum, and attracted attention as a school with a strong emphasis on sports.

Yachiyo Matsunaga Junior High School was established, launching a six‑year integrated education program. Classes were held in the same differentiated‑level format as the high school. English and mathematics were given more instructional time than in public junior high schools, aiming for admission to national and prestigious private universities after six years.
