The Shenzhen Japanese School is a Japanese international school in the Shekou Industrial Zone, Nanshan District, Shenzhen.[1][2] As of 2007, the largest group of foreigners in Shenzhen are in Shekou, and the Japanese school was one of many foreign schools in that area.[3]

Around 2004 the Shenzhen Japanese Chamber of Commerce suggested establishing a Japanese school.[1] Shenzhen Fuji Xerox and several other Japanese companies sponsored the Japanese school. It was scheduled to begin operations in April 2008.[4] On April 23, 2008 the Ministry of Education of China approved the establishment of the school.[5] The school opened on Friday June 13, 2008. At that time the school had 39 students and 17 teachers.[1] The school initially occupied an area on the second floor of the Haitao Hotel in Shekou. The school was scheduled to move out within three years and take a permanent facility.[4]
