Sustainable Education Program (SEP)
In connection with the changing educational approaches in the world; The sustainable education program, in which today’s primary school students are based on the skills that they will need in the future, and all academic processes are supported by vital ties, form the basis of our education philosophy.
In this context, we can describe students studying in primary school age groups as “independent of time and place” skills; No matter what profession they practice in the future, they are provided with the skills they will need..
These skills;
- be creative,
- high-level thinking,
- problem solving,
- Developing different perspectives,
- Self-knowledge, knowing your abilities (workshops are used in this context.)
- Flexible thinking,
- Being able to express oneself,
- are listed as critical thinking.
The contents of today’s exam system are evaluated to gain these high-level skills in workshops created by their teachers, the contents of which are created by their teachers for Cihangir Schools.
A method is adopted in which students are not competed with each other in the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th grades, and that friendship is applied at the forefront. In addition to these, as of the 3rd grade, multiple choice trial practices are carried out by paying attention to our sensitivities so that they are ready for the difficult central exams they will take in secondary school.
These trial results are shared with students individually, and parents and students are directed according to the results. The essence of the Sustainable Education Program; is to keep the student’s experience at school at a value and quality that can be used actively at places and times outside the school. For this reason, our primary school program includes three main practices and approaches on which the “Sustainable Education Program” is based. These are “Team Up, Literacy Program and Workshops”.
