The International Schools Review Forum

Work environment? Kids? Package? It would be very helpful if anyone could tell me about this school.

Please. Anything. What is it like there now? New director from the one on the reviews. Package? Working environment?

This is an international school that isn't really an international school. It's a private Turkish school that takes elite national students. They operate on a hybrid Turkish/international curriculum. I've heard they have excellent students. Some are on scholarship, some come from very wealthy families.

Just be aware that working at a private national school feels a lot different than working at an international school. People don't stay too long in most of these Turkish schools (Kroc School, ACI) unless they either fall in love with Turkey or have a connection with the country. A lot of the faculty are locals.

Again, this is an outsiders perspective based on having friends who have worked in the country. I would say it is highly regarded by US colleges and universities.
