Language Provision

Turkish language and literature are part of the Turkish curriculum, and Turkish culture is integrated into the program. English is the language of instruction for most lessons, with Turkish and English developed concurrently. English, mathematics and science are taught in English as part of the Cambridge curriculum, alongside Turkish requirements. The dual curriculum combines Cambridge International Examinations with Turkish Ministry of Education requirements, resulting in dual diploma qualifications.

Bilingual Teaching

Tarabya British Schools offers a dual curriculum that satisfies both Cambridge International Examinations and the Turkish Ministry of Education. The language of instruction is primarily English, and Turkish and English are developed simultaneously. With the exception of Turkish language and literature, Turkish culture, and second language lessons, all lessons are taught in English. The aim is for students to become bilingual in Turkish and English.
