About CEAMS


CEAMS is an international school management organization managing and affiliated with several international school brands in Japan, including:


Phoenix House International School (Tokyo)

A British curriculum international Primary and Middle School located near the Tokyo Imperial Palace, Phoenix House’s core mission is to create young people who can work collaboratively, ask and answer deep questions, think critically, research and present, using a thematic approach which naturally incorporates and develops inquiry skills. We seek to deliver both academic excellence and personal growth, helping our students grow as individuals with both integrity and a strong moral compass.


Clarence International School (Tokyo)

A British curriculum (Early Years Foundation Stage) and Arts focused preschool in the heart of Tokyo (Omotesando). All of our teaching comes with a firm Arts backbone, which we believe leads to maximum learning benefits. Literacy, numeracy, science and fluency in English are never compromised. Teaching children these fundamental skills via different, stimulating mediums, such as rhythm, dance, artistic techniques, story-telling and drama, helps to make the learning experience enjoyable, memorable and more permanent. Most importantly, we provide our children with the opportunity to look at the world differently, understanding there are multiple perspectives, and prompting them to be curious, inquisitive and open minded.


North Peak Enrichment Campus (Hokkaido)

At our North Peak Enrichment Campus in Hokkaido, pupils will enjoy an environment in which to learn and grow, in closer affinity to the natural world. They learn about the environment, survival, plants and animals, whilst developing their skills in horse-riding and a variety of exciting outdoor pursuits, sports and activities.
