The school aims to boost skills like entrepreneurship and creativity, and students take subjects such as English communication and programming. In class, they engage in topic-based discussions and give presentations. This May, Curioo opened its first-ever cram school in Japan in Sawara Ward, and it opened its second school in Island City (Higashi Ward) in November. The company aims to open about 100 schools in Japan in the next five years and plans to expand into Kumamoto Prefecture, where TSMC, the world&#8217;s largest semiconductor manufacturer, is currently building a plant. <\/span><b>Source:<\/b> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fiba.jp\/archives\/2022\/date\/november\/7516\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">FIBA<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-150476\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/fnn_curioo-kids_2022_cl.jpg?resize=1400%2C779&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Hong Kong-based Cram School Curioo Expands its Japan Operations with an Eye on Kyushu\" width=\"1400\" height=\"779\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/fnn_curioo-kids_2022_cl.jpg?w=1400&amp;ssl=1 1400w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/fnn_curioo-kids_2022_cl.jpg?resize=300%2C167&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/fnn_curioo-kids_2022_cl.jpg?resize=1024%2C570&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/fnn_curioo-kids_2022_cl.jpg?resize=768%2C427&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/>Photo from <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.curioo.co.jp\/blog\/jp1studio-0?hsLang=ja\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">CURIOO official website<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><b>Get Fukuoka &amp; Kyushu area news and events in English regularly.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Sign up for our <\/span><b>free<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> weekly newsletter.
