First, the domain the directory listed (jinseki-is. com) no longer resolves — the real site is jinis. jp. Second, the school opened in April 2020, not 2022 as the directory claimed. Third, this is not a senior high school (Grade 10-12) but a full-boarding primary school (Grade 1-6). Fourth, the directory's claim of "IB candidacy underway" wasn't found anywhere on the school's own site.

01Tuition & Fees
Fees: A Mix of Primary and Third-Party Sources
The ¥50,000 application/exam fee was confirmed directly on the school's own admissions page. But the major fee items — enrolment, deposit, tuition, boarding — couldn't be traced to a school-issued fee PDF in currently available public information and rest on third-party reporting only. The first-year total works out to ¥8,910,000, but that figure hasn't been cross-checked against the school's own fee schedule.
Key Point
This school accumulated more distinct legacy-data errors than any other in this batch: the domain, the opening year, the school type, and the IB status were each independently wrong within a single directory record. A full-boarding primary school is a fundamentally different consideration than the senior high school a family might have been searching for — a concrete illustration of how much this kind of error can matter in practice.

Includes: application, enrolment, deposit, tuition, facilities, other — Excludes: The application fee is only incurred if the family proceeds, but is included here as part of the first-year outlay. The ¥1,000,000 deposit is reportedly refunded on withdrawal but is included here as a first-year cash outlay. This total rests on third-party reporting, not the school's own published fee schedule — it wasn't cross-checked against a school-issued fee PDF in currently available public information.
