Sakura Gakuin or
さくら学院 is a Japanese idol girl group formed in 2010 by the Amuse talent agency. The group functions as a unit restricted to the "growing period", typically containing between 10 and 12 members at a time who fall between the ages of 10 and 15. With the theme of school life and extracurricular club activities, when the current nendo ("academic year") ends in April, the group releases an annual studio album, new members transfer in to the group, and others who finish compulsory education graduate.
Current members of Sakura Gakuin are:
