Education Philosophy

Education is not only a process in which individuals acquire knowledge and skills; it is also a life journey in which they complete their intellectual, emotional, social and ethical development. Our understanding of education aims to develop all aspects of the individual, while making them an active and responsible member of society. Accordingly, the basic philosophy of education is based on the following principles:

Free and Critical Thinking  

Developing individuals' free thinking and critical questioning skills enables them to learn in real terms and to generate creative solutions to problems. Education provides an environment that encourages the individual's curiosity, where they can express their thoughts and develop multifaceted perspectives.

Lifelong Learning 

Education is not a starting or ending point, but a lifelong process. In this process, individuals are supported to be open to learning, innovative and self-improving.

The Power of Language and Culture 

Raising individuals who use their mother tongue effectively and learn at least two foreign languages at a level that enables them to communicate effectively enables the individual to lead a life both in line with his/her national identity and in harmony with the global world.

Principled and Honest 

Education involves not only transferring knowledge but also equipping individuals with ethical values. It aims to contribute to society based on trust and respect by raising principled, honest and fair individuals.

Responsibility and Leadership 

Raising individuals who are able to make decisions on the spot, take responsibility for these decisions and lead when necessary enables individuals to be effective both on a personal and societal level.

Teamwork and Empathy 

Raising individuals who are capable of teamwork, open-minded and empathetic is the key to both individual and social success. Education teaches individuals to understand and respect the feelings and thoughts of others.

Physical and Mental Health 

Education encourages individuals to care not only for their mental health, but also for their physical and spiritual health. Creativity, aesthetic perception and self-confidence are supported through sports and art activities.

Scientific and Technological Guidance 

Education believes in the guidance of reason and science. By raising individuals who use technological opportunities creatively and efficiently, it enables them to acquire skills appropriate to the needs of the 21st century. 

National and Universal Values 

Raising individuals who are aware of their national identity and values, but who are also committed to universal human rights and peace, enables the individual to contribute to both his/her own society and the world community.

Self-confidence and Self-actualization 

Individuals with high self-esteem, who can criticize and control themselves, can direct their lives in a meaningful way. Education supports and guides the individual's process of self-actualization.  

Academic Honesty and Knowledge Sharing 

Education is based on academic integrity and ethical knowledge sharing. When individuals respect knowledge and share it in the right ways, they are recognized as trustworthy individuals

Understanding of Peace and Justice  

Raising individuals with an understanding of peace, unity and justice enables individuals to make a positive contribution to society and the world. Education prepares the ground for individuals to become loving, happy and peaceful individuals.

In the light of these principles, our main goal is to create a learning environment that will enable individuals to discover their potential, to make them “sought-after individuals” in business and community life and to contribute to a happy life.
