KG Kotogakuin Nanba Campus at Dotonbori, Osaka

Kashima Gakuen-affiliated correspondence support campus in Namba with a 100% graduation record.

KG Kotogakuin (KG高等学院) is a support school for correspondence high-school students, affiliated with Kashima Gakuen High School. Its Namba campus shares the sixth floor of the Inoue Namba Building at 1-2-2 Motomachi, Naniwa Ward, just a short walk from JR Namba and Namba subway stations. The school promises that every student can graduate in three years, regardless of past attendance issues, and reports a 100% graduation rate alongside a 98% next-step placement figure. Students choose from flexible learning styles ranging from a five-day week to weekly attendance, individual tuition or mostly home-based study. Optional clubs include Skype English conversation, a manga-and-anime circle and a light-music group, giving the campus a more rounded school-life feel than a pure cram-school environment. A dedicated university-advancement course has produced graduates heading to Osaka University and the Kansai quartet of Kansai, Doshisha, Ritsumeikan and Kwansei Gakuin universities. For students who have fallen behind, changed schools, or simply learn better outside the conventional system, KG Kotogakuin's Namba campus offers a structured but forgiving path to graduation. The campus chief, himself a former karate world champion, brings a personal story of turnaround that shapes the school's ethos.
