1. A non-transitory recording medium having a program stored thereon, the program for coding an image, causing a processor to execute operations comprising:
partitioning the image into tiles and slices; and
coding the tiles and the slices resulting from the partitioning, wherein
a type of each of the slices is either a normal slice type or a dependent slice type,
a slice of the normal slice type is coded without referring to a different slice and has, in a header, information that is required to decode the slice, and can be used for a different slice,
a slice of the dependent slice type is decoded using information included in a slice header of another slice, and
when a first tile includes a normal slice starting from a position other than a beginning of the first tile, a second tile coded next to the first tile includes a normal slice starting from a beginning of the second tile.
