Moritomo Gakuen (学校法人森友学園, Gakkō hōjin Moritomo Gakuen) is a Japanese private school operator, most known for its involvement in a 2017 political scandal implicating former Prime Minister Shinzō Abe and his wife, Akie Abe.
Moritomo Gakuen began as a kindergarten (preschool) operated by Yasunori Kagoike [ja]. Kagoike implemented a nationalist curriculum at the school which included daily recitations of the Imperial Rescript on Education, a practice employed at schools in the Empire of Japan from 1890 to 1945.[1] Moritomo Gakuen is controversial about teaching anti-Korean education.[2][3][4]
