We believe that students’ well-being is directly related to a positive self image developed through continuous experiences of challenge, achievement and success.
This belief requires consideration of the whole person; their physical, emotional, social and educational development.
Every student at FIS is our number one priority and we will do our utmost to ensure that each child, every day, feels welcome, safe, valued and encouraged here at Fukuoka International School.
Here at FIS we take the well being and safety as the highest priority of each day. The counselor’s office is a confidential space where trust is built and where students feel safe, valued, and respected.
Students are encouraged to feel empowered to solve their own problems and make a clear path to their desired future.
In addition, we have a wonderful student support team that is committed to the utmost care of our students. Linked here is our official Child Protection Webpage.
