We make a difference with our strong academic program!
We attach great importance to the cognitive, emotional and physical development of our students. We structure our training program and curriculum in this direction. We encourage our students to follow their curiosity and dreams. With our knowledgeable academic staff, we allow each of our students to express themselves. We help our students become respectful, loving, tolerant, self-confident individuals and develop their skills. In our classrooms, equipped with 21st century technology, we offer full-time bilingual education with two classroom teachers, one speaking English and the other Turkish.
With the bilingual education system, we enable our students to use Turkish and English in their daily lives!
Our preschool program, where an inquiry-based learning model is applied, and the "English Learning Program", which is carried out with a holistic approach, are structured in line with the principle of the mother tongue acquisition model addressed in literature. In the light of this scientific data, our program is carried out in cooperation with Cambridge University Press.
Near East Preschool offers a quality academic program with a parallel bilingual education system by providing fluency in Turkish and English languages. Both Turkish and English are used as languages of daily communication and learning.
We are inspired by different educational approaches!
In addition to the local curriculum, we model many educational approaches used internationally, both in our physical environments and in our educational methods and techniques. We contribute to the development of our students by utilizing approaches such as Reggio Emilia and Montessori.
French as a Second Language!
In order to introduce our students to different cultures and languages at an early age, French is taught as a second language from the age of 3. In our education program, which includes French lessons every day, our children continue to take French lessons from the age of 3 until the last grade of primary school.
We are preparing our students for primary school!
We carry out all the necessary work to facilitate our students' transition to primary school and to gain school maturity through our academic program and with the support of our guidance unit.
We offer hands-on learning opportunities with experiments in the Science Workshop!
With the experiments carried out in the Science Workshop, our children learn practically the processes of comprehending, analysing, synthesizing, evaluating and producing products. This method of “first applying and then explaining”; It enables the student to take action spontaneously, gain the experience necessary to understand the underlying concepts and ideas of the subject, and think critically. Science workshop activities allow students to make discoveries on their own and enable them to create higher thinking systems by learning to question and draw conclusions. In order to reinforce creative thinking, observation and questioning perspective, the science workshop and experiment laboratory enable our children to explore and learn while having fun.
We support the spiritual and mental development of our students with Yoga – Mandala – Mindfulness!
We support the physical, mental and spiritual development of our children with yoga-mandala and awareness exercises in our Pre-School curriculum. We apply the Mindfulness ELINE SNEL method in our school at the same time as in the developed countries of the world. This method covers themes such as awareness training for children, observation, sense of trust and self-compassion.
We care about the health of our students as much as their education!
Private Health Insurance covers all our students and does not impose any additional fee on the parent. All our students enjoy the privilege of becoming a member of the Near East family within the scope of this insurance. The health expenses of our students in areas covered by insurance, both during school hours and outside school hours, are covered by "Near East Youth Health Insurance".
