Shibuya Kyoiku Shibuya (Shibushibu) is a coeducational junior/senior high school in Shibuya-ku, sister school to Shibuya Kyoiku Makuhari (Shibumaku) in Chiba. Its returnee-student admission exam is reportedly held January 27 — but in currently available public information couldn't pin down specific tuition figures.

01Tuition & Fees
Neither Fees Nor the IB DP Claim Could Be Confirmed
Sister school Shibumaku has a clearly published tuition page (shibumaku. jp/admissions/tuition/); an equivalent page for Shibushibu wasn't located in currently available public information. What turned up instead were only secondary costs — a monthly PTA/support-association fee, materials, and uniforms — with no entrance fee or tuition amount confirmed.
Key Point
This is a deliberate "not confirmed" record, not an oversight. It would be reasonable to guess that Shibushibu's fee structure mirrors Shibumaku's (monthly billing, one-time entrance and facility fees) — but publishing specific numbers based on that guess isn't something this profile does. The plan is to locate the school's own tuition page in a future session and update this fact once confirmed.
What Was Confirmed: ¥2,500/Month PTA-Type Fee and Similar
What was confirmed in currently available public information was limited to secondary costs: a monthly support-association fee of ¥2,500, annual materials fee of ¥55,000, and uniforms/regulation items at roughly ¥110,000 (boys) / ¥120,000 (girls). No school bonds or donations are required. The entrance fee and tuition amounts themselves are not publicly confirmed.
No verified fee schedule was available from the reviewed sources.

What Japanese Families Should Know
Questions to Ask the School
1.What are the exact entrance fee and tuition amounts?
Why this matters: Public information does not establish this clearly; confirm it directly with the school.
2.What exactly does the English-focused programme consist of — is it IB-based or a school-original design?
Why this matters: Published sources conflict; confirm the current position directly with the school.
