Our school was founded as the first private school in its area in 1997. It provides educational services to the nursery classes (3-7 years old), primary classes and secondary classes (aged 7-14) and the high school classes (aged 15-18). It is not located in socio-economically disadvantaged area. Edirne is a border city. It has two borders which open to Bulgaria and Greece. Both are 15 minutes away. It is quite common to see Greek and Bulgarian people shopping dining or visiting the town. Our institution is affiliated to the Ministry of National Education and it runs with school fees. The lessons are supported with computers, laboratories and various activities in a student-oriented environment.
Our students need to learn how to appreciate other cultures and develop the sense of tolerance since they are living very close to two different nations. They need to create better cooperation opportunities with other European countries’ cultures and languages to communicate better and participate personally to the peace of Europe and of the rest of the world.
Beykent Educational Institutions are committed to the European and global education which it sees as a vital dimension in the preparation of its students for adulthood in the 21st century. Participation in the international projects such as Comenius offers opportunities for both staff and students to gain insights into different countries, their people and their organizations, learn from other cultures and to learn more about themselves and their own lives through the reflective prism of cooperation. Participation recognizes that we are part of the European and Global Community and that we want to play an active role within it. We want to establish ourselves in European and international network of schools and educational agencies.
We also have been an IB-MYP school since 2011.
