Johor’s sole expatriate school is Sekolah Jepun Johor (Johor Japanese School), located in Masai near the Pasir Gudang industrial zone. The school exists to serve Japanese families posted to the manufacturing and petrochemical facilities in southern Johor. Its location, close to the factories and residential areas where Japanese expats live, keeps commute times short for enrolled families.

This range of qualifications is unusually broad for a single-community expatriate school, and it gives students multiple exit routes, whether they return to Japan for university, apply to UK institutions, or target schools that accept the IB globally.
