Abstract

This paper aims to clarify the roles played by Indian schools for Indian people living in Japan and the potential of Indian schools for developing human resources to maintain good relations between Japan and India in the future. Two Indian schools, India International School in Japan and Global Indian International School, have some characteristics in common with regard to the curricula provided by these schools, abundant options of language subjects and opportunities for parents to build communities. On the other hand, the two Indian schools have some differences with regard to the number of choices in the curriculum, advantages for parents, and different activities in terms of activities that help children to connect India and Japan. Each of these Indian schools plays a role for Indian people living in Japan in respect to these common and different features. Furthermore, it is expected that children who study at Indian schools will be future human resources to maintain good relations between Japan and India in the future.
