Why to choose Işıkkent?

Because...

Işıkkent students receive education in line with the Ministry of Education curriculum as well as the IB programmes from the ELC to the end of high school. They get the chance to choose the IB-DP in high school and receive an IB Diploma along with the Ministry of Education Diploma. Many prestigious universities in our country and around the world admit students according to the grades in their IB Diploma.

Işıkkent students, who take and pass the IB Higher Level (HL) exams during their high school education, may request for exemption from some classes during their undergraduate education in line with the rules designated by the universities. 

Each Işıkkent student is raised as a sensitive, determined, honest, creative, sympathetic and hardworking individual who respects differences and is committed to national and international values.

In addition to an intensive academic education, the students participate in various extracurricular activities, which are named as the Programmes for Holistic Development, to develop their knowledge and skills in different areas such as sports and arts as well as personal growth and development.
