Kids Duo
About
An after-school care program where children are looked after in English. Conversation inside the school is basically in English only, and the school says most children are new to English. The elementary school course picks children up from school by dedicated bus (eligible schools are set by each school), and on the way back takes them to near their home if requested. There is also a preschool course for the first to final years of kindergarten, but availability differs by school, and the preschool course has no transport.
Ages
From the first year of kindergarten to grade 6. According to the information for the Shibaura school in Minato City, the preschool course is for the first to final years of kindergarten (from age 3), and the elementary school course for grades 1–6. Bookings for grade 1 can be made from 2 years before attending (the second year of kindergarten).
Monthly fees
The official website does not state lesson fee amounts. Lesson fees differ by the number of days a week, and the website says to ask the school. The elementary school course is from twice a week, and some schools also have a once-a-week preschool course. Care is normally until 19:30; extensions until 20:30 cost extra depending on the extended time. Lunch during school holidays is charged separately. There is a sibling discount, and the monthly fee is automatically debited from your account.
Trial lessons and visits
There is a free trial lesson; enrollment follows an interview between the parent and the school director and the child's trial lesson. You can also just visit and hear an explanation.
