IB Curriculum International Schools in Turkey

IB schools in Turkey form a mixed market of purpose-built international campuses and bilingual private schools that commonly offer the IB Primary Years, Middle Years and Diploma Programmes across cities such as Istanbul, Ankara and İzmir. Instruction is most often in English, though many authorised IB schools run Turkish - English bilingual pathways and include compulsory Turkish language and culture lessons where required by local regulation. Annual tuition varies widely with location and school type - families should expect anything from lower-midrange fees up to figures typical of major European capitals, with headline tuition often higher in Istanbul than elsewhere. Admissions usually follow the September-to-June academic year cycle and families are advised to start enquiries months ahead (formal applications and entrance assessments are commonly scheduled in the winter/spring for September entry).
