Schools and Education around Kamiyacho
Map & surroundings
Under Minato City's school-zone system, Toranomon 1-5 chome is assigned to Onarimon Gakuen Onarimon Elementary School and Onarimon Junior High School. This includes Toranomon 5-chome, where Kamiyacho Station is located. School assignments become more address-specific on the Azabudai side. For example, Azabudai 1-chome 11 is associated with the Onarimon zone, while Azabudai 1-chome 1-10 and much of Azabudai 2-3 chome fall within the Azabu Elementary and Roppongi Junior High zones. Minato City also operates a school-choice request system, but schools can be subject to lotteries when applications exceed capacity, so admission outside the designated zone is not guaranteed. Lotteries occurred at several junior high schools for April 2026 enrollment. Private and international schools are also present in the broader central Minato area, although admissions, tuition and transportation arrangements vary significantly. Families selecting housing for educational reasons should therefore verify the exact residential address against the latest official school-zone table before signing a lease or purchase contract.
