The Japanese School in Perth (パース日本人学校, Pāsu Nihonjin Gakkō), abbreviated to JSP, is a Japanese international school located in City Beach within the Town of Cambridge of Perth, the capital city of Western Australia.[1]

The school opened in 1978.[2] Historically the school was located on the property of a local Australian school, and the two schools had joint activities.[2] Since 1998 the school uses the four term system used by Australian schools.[3]

The school was previously in Scarborough.[4] In its history, up to 2012, the school had moved three times. After Education Minister Peter Collier announced that the school will relocate from its Kalinda Drive location in City Beach,[5] it co-located with City Beach Primary School at Marapana Road in City Beach.
