Junior and Senior High School at Komaba, University of Tsukuba (筑波大学附属駒場中学校・高等学校) is a national boys' school located in Ikejiri, Setagaya, near Komaba. It is better known by the abbreviation Tsukukoma (筑駒). Tsukukoma is affiliated with the University of Tsukuba and offers a six-year secondary education program. Tsukukoma is the only national boys' school in Japan and is often regarded as the most academically superior secondary educational institution in the country, due to its extremely competitive admissions and the highest rate of its graduates enrolling in the University of Tokyo, which is usually considered Japan's most prestigious university.
Overview
In 1947, Tsukukoma was established as a new junior high school affiliated with the former Tokyo Agricultural School. It was later renamed Komaba Junior and Senior High School, affiliated with Tokyo University of Education in 1952, and then, in 1978, it came under the purview of the University of Tsukuba, which replaced Tokyo University of Education that year. Although it is an affiliated school of the University of Tsukuba, very few students choose to study at the university after graduation.
Known for its liberal school spirit, the school has no uniforms for both junior and senior high students. It is located on the site of the former Komaba Agricultural School and maintains a tradition of rice cultivation training in paddy fields, known at the school as 'Kellner Paddy'. In its vicinity there are Komaba Toho Junior and Senior High School, Tokyo Metropolitan Komaba High School, Komaba Gakuen High School, and Nihon University Komaba Junior and Senior High School.
Tsukukoma is one of the largest sources of successful applicants to the University of Tokyo, which is generally regarded as the nation's most selective and prestigious university. The school is located on a hill approximately 700 meters south of the Komaba Campus, University of Tokyo, which mainly accommodates first and second-year undergraduates.
