In Japan, ethnic/international schools are placed separately to the public education system. However, these days the number of students who share more diverse cultures and backgrounds are increasing. It is, therefore, a natural step to incorporate these schools into the system, or at least create closer linkages between them and public schools. In this paper, a tentative approach of how ethnic/international schools should be placed in the public education system in Japan is presented. This paper presents a tentative approach to establishing firm links with ethnic/international schools and placing them within the Japanese public educational system under the guise of private schools. The characteristics and conditions of both private schools and schools supported by public funds are considered by example of such a school in the United Kingdom. In addition the case of a private Kenkoku school that has been given accreditation as a fomal school is examined.
