FAQ
Families often ask about programs, admission, schedules, and daily life at TGA. Below are answers to the questions we hear most often.
If your question is not covered here, please contact our office or book a school visit—we are happy to help in English or Japanese.
Is there an age limit for enrollment?
Children may join once they can walk independently on their own. Final acceptance is confirmed after the parent interview—please book a visit to begin the process.
Is the program bilingual?
Yes. English and Japanese are woven into daily classroom life—not only during language lessons. Children hear, speak, and learn in both languages through Montessori work, stories, songs, and conversations with teachers.
How do I book a school visit?
Use our online Book a Visit form, call 06-6627-0058, or email tgap.managers@gmail.com. We will confirm your preferred date and share what to expect on the day.
When can we enroll?
We accept applications all year long where space allows. Key dates for orientation and the start of term are shared during the admission process. Contact us for current availability.
Is school bus service available?
Yes. We offer weekday and Saturday bus routes. Morning pick-up runs from 7:00 to 9:00 a.m., with departures from school at 3:00 p.m. and 5:00 p.m. on weekdays and Saturdays. Upon request, we can also arrange service at your preferred time and location—see our School Bus page for details.
How are fees structured?
Tuition and fees vary by program (Kindergarten, After School & Saturday, SSW, Private Lessons). A detailed fee schedule is provided at the parent interview. Payment plans and sibling discounts may be available—please ask when you visit.
Do you offer extended childcare?
Yes. We offer extended childcare on weekdays from 7:30 a.m. to 7:30 p.m., so families who need care before or after the core school day can rely on us. This is separate from bus departure times (3:00 p.m. and 5:00 p.m.)—children can stay on campus until 7:30 p.m. Our After School & Saturday programme covers enrichment during these extended hours. Contact the office to discuss your family's schedule.
