Eyüboglu Educational Institutions are a group of private,<br />

coeducational schools founded in 1985. EEI is comprised of<br />

five kindergardens, three elementary sections, a secondary,<br />

and a science secondary section and offers a bilingual<br />

education to students aged 2 to 18. All Eyuboglu schools are<br />

accredited or re-accredited by CIS. School philosophy is based<br />

on academic excellence, internationalism, intercultural and<br />

social awareness. Eyüboglu schools were the first Turkish<br />

institutions to achieve authorization to offer all three <strong>IB</strong><br />

programmes: Diploma, Middle Years and Primary Years. With<br />

this unique feature, the schools’ internationally recognized<br />

high standards of academic excellence enables the Eyüboglu<br />

graduates to further their studies in the finest universities,<br />

both locally and in the US, Canada and the UK.<br />

There is a strong ESL program in all sections, leading our<br />

students to, in addition to <strong>IB</strong> qualifications, UCLES and TOEFL<br />

English proficiency examinations. Starting from grade 5,<br />

German, French and Spanish are taught as a second foreign<br />

language. Elective subjects offer more intensive and<br />

specialized study in the fields of social sciences, sciences, arts,<br />

music, computer and astronomy. Individualized instruction is<br />

part of the curriculum. There is a wide variety of extracurricular<br />

activities in art, music, humanities and drama. Besides<br />

traditional sports activities, archery, horse riding, fencing,<br />

swimming, folk dancing, and modern dance are also offered.<br />

Teachers have an average of ten years of teaching<br />

experience, and 42% of the subject teachers hold<br />

postgraduate degrees. The average tenure at the school is<br />

seven years.<br />

Facilities on the campus include an arts and sports complex<br />

with a swimming pool, various art studios and sports areas for<br />

handball, volleyball, athletics, basketball, archery, ballet and<br />

folk-dancing. There is a theatre hall (seating 500), a full-sized<br />

gymnasium, four smaller multi-purpose PE halls, activity<br />

rooms, four art and ceramics studios, four libraries with<br />

56,000 volumes, tennis, basketball and handball courts, a<br />

bocce field, and a general playing field. There are 11 science<br />

laboratories. The two observatories are equipped with<br />

powerful telescopes, which enable the school and wider<br />

community to make astronomical observations.<br />

Admission to Eyüboglu is offered on the basis of a school<br />

administered examination for the elementary section and<br />

according to Turkish Ministry of Education regulations for the<br />

secondary sections.<br />
