STEM
STEM refers to an intense education in the disciplines of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics. Stem education includes formal and informal education in all age groups. Supporters of STEM studies defend that engineering education must be prevalent by joining into other fields and must begin at younger ages even in the primary school age. In addition, they demand that STEM education must be not only for highly gifted children but all children.
International Baccalaureate School
The International Baccalaureate Education is a programme requiring an academic and personal rigour for 3 to 19 year olds. It challenges students to excel in their subjects, studies and personal development. (No pain no gain) It aims to inspire inquiry and exploration promoting lifelong learning through empathy and enthusiasm.
WHY GÖKKUŞAĞI INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL
Comments from our Parents
When you become a parent of two children in different grades, you care very much about the level of provided curriculums and teachers. After comparing between schools and searching for long time, finally we found Gökkuşağı Koleji. When I evaluate the progress of education level they become happy and higher level, so they have fun and learn.
