The key to enriching society is to focus on the individuality, qualities, and strengths of as many children as possible, cultivate their curiosity and inquisitiveness from an early age, and provide them with an education and environment that suits their needs.

We know the important role that education plays in life, especially in today’s rapidly changing world. While we may be unable to accurately predict the future, we are still able to prepare our children to thrive in the new world in which they will find themselves. How can we do this?
The Laurus International School of Science (LISS), which follows the amazing work that has been demonstrated by the Laurus Primary School, is the kind of place where the next generation of leaders, scientists, researchers, engineers and others will be educated. This STEM secondary school will be a model for others both in Japan and around the world. Having worked with Mami Hioki and her very talented, dedicated, and culturally diverse teachers who come from all over the world, I am very excited for the LISS and look forward to collaborating with them in teaching and preparing our future generations for success in a rapidly evolving world.
