Overview

This affiliated high school was mainly established to research vocational education for late secondary education. However, in 1994, as it approached its 50th anniversary, it was transformed into Japanese first "Integrated Course" high school to serve as The Ministry of Education, Science, Sports and Culture's prototype for promoting high school education reform.
