2024 Annual Report

With the aim of fostering global talent capable of thriving in an internationalized society, the school was renamed Matsudo International High School in April 1994, transitioning from its predecessor, Chiba Prefectural Matsudo Higashi High School. The school offers both a General Education Course and an International Liberal Arts Course, accepting foreign and returnee students while actively promoting international exchange and global understanding education.

The goal of UNESCO School (ESD) activities is to nurture individuals who can think independently and take action to solve global challenges, aligning precisely with our school’s objectives. At our school, the skills developed through ESD are referred to as “Matsukoku Power,” comprising emotional intelligence, physical strength, and cognitive ability. We aim to foster these abilities through the three key areas that UNESCO Schools prioritize.

Additionally, as the administrative office for the Chiba Prefectural High School Education Research Association’s ESD Division, our school collaborates with public and private UNESCO Schools, ESD-practicing high schools, and special-needs schools across the prefecture. We also co-host ESD training programs with Chiba University’s Faculty of Education.

Annual Work Plan

Next year, we will continue the initiatives undertaken this year, carrying out activities with an awareness of the SDGs. We will further integrate UNESCO School initiatives throughout the school by building on the efforts of the Volunteer Club, which actively engages in such activities, the Student Council, which plays a central role in community contribution activities, and through collaborations with Chiba University’s ESD projects, Reitaku University, and other higher education institutions.

From this academic year, our school has been designated as a “Global School” under the Chiba Prefectural High School Reform Promotion Plan by the Chiba Prefectural Board of Education. Based on last year’s goal of “further promoting student-led UNESCO activities,” we will reflect on our past activities in light of our school’s educational objectives, identify achievements and challenges, and enhance our efforts in the coming year.

In recent years, there has been an increasing trend in the enrollment of foreign-national students and returnees from overseas. As our school continues to evolve into a truly international institution, it is essential to further develop internal structures that support ESD, making the most of our unique characteristics. This year, we have made steady progress toward our goals, such as formalizing the UNESCO committee and holding support meetings for students with foreign roots at least three times a year. By building on these experiences, we aim to further enrich our school’s education as a Global School and a UNESCO School.
