The Thai Japanese Association School (Japanese: 泰日協会学校Tai-hi Kyōkai Gakkō or the バンコク日本人学 Bankoku Nihonjin Gakkō meaning "Bangkok Japanese School", Thai: โรงเรียนสมาคมไทย-ญี่ปุ่น, RTGS: Rong Rian Samakhom Thai Yipun) is a Japanese school located in Huai Khwang District, Bangkok on Rama 9 Road. It is sponsored by the Thai-Japanese Association.[1] It is the school with the largest campus in Bangkok, and one of the two Japanese schools in Bangkok. It allows students from junior school Grade 1 (equivalent to the U.S. 1st grade) students to middle school Grade 3 (equivalent to the U.S. 9th grade) students to learn. The school only allows students with a Japanese nationality to study.[citation needed]
At one time the Japanese school, previously in the central city, moved to a suburban area. This caused a reduction in the Japanese children's interactions with Thai society because the children began to spend a large amount of time on school buses.[2]

Turkey is not included in the classification of Europe by the Japanese Ministry of Education (MEXT). Nihonjin gakkō are day schools operated by Japanese associations and usually only include, within the Japanese system, primary and junior high school levels. Shiritsu zaigai kyōiku shisetsu are overseas branches of Japanese schools; these are boarding and day schools. MEXT categorizes Japanese sections of European international schools as hoshū jugyō kō part-time schools and not as full-time schools. See the template for part-time schools.
