Ihsan International School Esenyurt Branch

Ihsan International School is following the American curriculum, accredited by the US Department of Education of California state and the Turkish Ministry of Education and fully accredited by well known international accreditation agency of Cognia Foundation (known previously as AdvancED).

Ihsan International school is an international education institution based in Istanbul, offering core educational programs in English as well as promoting Arabic and Turkish as important languages to learn.

We believe in a holistic approach to learning, helping our students absorb themselves in the culture of the languages which they are learning, as well as take part in activities, educational visits and trips, sports and games and a wide range of creative and autonomous learning activities.

On the linguistic side of our curriculum, Ihsan International School focuses its subject matter on linguistic progress, through systematic grammar and lexis learning balanced with the four skills; speaking, listening, reading and writing.

As an Islamic school, Ihsan also places emphasis on religious teachings and on developing an understanding of religion and faith in students, to prepare them for adult Muslim life.

We believe in diversity and welcome students from different social and demographic backgrounds. We promote inclusion and interaction. We are an equal opportunities institution, ensuring that all students, staff and stakeholders are treated the same.

• At Ihsan, we don’t believe that our school is just a school. Education does not stop at the moment at which a pupil leaves a classroom. It is a more holistic experience, encompassing external experiences, team-building, sports, and interaction with the outside world.
• We believe in providing our pupils with the necessary tools not just to take on information, but to apply it in real-life situations, making choices that lead to positive results.
• It is important for us to prepare our students for their future education and lives, so we adopt a forward-thinking, modern methodology and approach to ensure that our graduates leave with a range of tools that they can take with them on their journeys through life.
• Everyone has the right to a good education. Ihsan is an all-inclusive, multicultural school that does not build barriers to learning; it breaks them down. All are welcome at Ihsan; we treat everyone equally and we expect our students to do so too.
• Our multilingual program and the wide range of subjects that we focus on, reflect this aspiration.
• We provide multi-level courses and cater for children with learning and physical difficulties, with a strong focus on integration and unity within our institution.
