The Japanese Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT) classifies the Melbourne, Perth, and Sydney Japanese schools as nihonjin gakkō (Japanese international schools) as they are operated by Japanese associations. The former South Queensland Academy was classified as a shiritsu zaigai kyōiku shisetsu (overseas branches of Japanese private schools) and was the only Japanese school in Australia to offer senior high school-level education.
The Russian Embassy School only serves primary school.

Turkey is not included in the classification of Europe by the Japanese Ministry of Education (MEXT).
Nihonjin gakkō are day schools operated by Japanese associations and usually only include, within the Japanese system, primary and junior high school levels. Shiritsu zaigai kyōiku shisetsu are overseas branches of Japanese schools; these are boarding and day schools.
MEXT categorizes Japanese sections of European international schools as hoshū jugyō kō part-time schools and not as full-time schools. See the template for part-time schools.
