The Japanese School of Brussels a.s.b.l. (ブラッセル日本人学校, Burasseru Nihonjin Gakkō, JSB) is a Japanese international school located in Auderghem, Brussels.[1] The school serves elementary and junior high school levels. It is Belgium's only Japanese international school.[2] The Japanese Supplementary School of Brussels (ブラッセル日本人学校補習校, Burasseru Nihonjin gakkō hoshūkō), a supplementary school operated on Saturdays, is held on the premises of the JSB.[3]
The presence of the school has drawn Japanese families with school-aged children to the area around the school. Marie Conte-Helm, author of The Japanese and Europe: Economic and Cultural Encounters, wrote that the school "acts as a focal point for all local Japanese."[4] Chin Ling Pang (Chinese: 彭靜蓮; pinyin: Péng Jìnglián), the author of Negotiating Identity in Contemporary Japan: The Case of Kikokushijo, wrote that the Japanese School of Brussels "functions as a microcosm of the Japanese community in Brussels."[5]
As of 2000 the school's funding comes from Japanese companies and the Ministry of Education of Japan (Monbusho) in an equal proportion,[3] along with tuition fees paid by parents of Saturday school pupils. Revenue in 2019–2020 school year was 2,085,580 euros with expenses being 1,721,896 euros.[citation needed]
