Ontario Curriculum · Bilingual Education · Holistic Development
Our Primary School Curriculum is applied by integrating the Ontario English Language Arts program and the curriculum determined by the Turkish Ministry of National Education. Thanks to this joint agreement, students grow up as multilingual individuals, with a holistic educational approach, by assimilating cultural and intercultural principles and values without sacrificing their right to be a child while being nourished by the sense of curiosity ingrained in their nature.
Students, led by teachers who are experts in their fields and have high academic qualifications, have the confidence to explore new roles, ideas, and strategies in the learning process and acquire the necessary knowledge to explore issues of universal relevance and importance.
French lessons increase as grades elevate. In addition, the environment is adjusted for students to practice their French during school hours.
Keystone Schools encourages students to acquire the skill of resilience, which is the secret to success now and in the future in a rapidly changing and evolving world. In addition, it contributes to developing self-confident individuals who speak English at the native language level. Therefore, Keystone Schools determine the English level of students who come to intermediate classes from other schools. In cases where support is required, students are directed to summer school and weekend courses opened by the school.
While enjoying reading, at Kilittaşı Primary School, students contribute to their personal development based on what they read and learn to analyze what they read. As a result, they graduate from primary school as native speakers of English who adopt mathematical thinking and interdisciplinary association as a principle.
As Keystone Schools, we support and enable our students to participate in national and international projects and competitions every year in order to evaluate the academic success of our students at international standards.
We always support our primary school students with preliminary studies for these exams in order not to create exam anxiety due to their age, and we do all our work based on games in order not to put pressure on them. Keystone schools are a school that has the mission of being the exam center of many international exams, and thanks to this feature, our students take the exams in their own schools, and this is a different element that does not cause them anxiety. Our main purpose in these exams is not to test our students, but to enable them to evaluate themselves internationally.
