The school opened in 2016 in Yenibosna and later moved to Beylikdüzü, where it occupies a building of its own on Davutpaşa. It is divided into two sections: in the Arabic section subjects are taught on the Yemeni curriculum in Arabic, in the American section on the Californian McGraw Hill curriculum in English, and Turkish is taught in both, so the school calls itself trilingual. Classes run from the preparatory group to the end of high school, boys and girls are taught separately, and the school speaks separately of lessons in Islamic upbringing and in the Quran. The school does not name its tuition: it depends on the section, the grade and the length of the lessons, and the school suggests asking by telephone. The school publishes neither its teachers by name, nor the number of its students, nor a list of universities, nor exam results. The school’s website does not open at present.

About the fees The school does not name its tuition: by its own account the fee depends on the section, the grade and the length of the lessons, and for the details the school asks to be contacted.
Stages and year groups Grades from the preparatory group to the end of high school. The school names four stages of its own - a preparatory group, primary, middle and high school: “تضم كافة المراحل التعليمية ( روضة - ابتدائي - إعدادي - ثانوي )”. It holds three licenses, and all three are school licenses: primary, middle and high school as an international school; there is no separate kindergarten license at this address.

Accreditations and programmes verified against official registries
Cognia · accreditationschool is in an official registryconfirmed by a school document, by membership or by taking part in a networkclaimed by the school, no confirmation, not counted in the scoreGuide to all organisations → What stands behind each entry
CogniaCognia, formerly AdvancED
The widest-reaching American accreditation: some forty thousand schools in over a hundred countries. It accredits both individual schools and whole school systems. It also sells a paid membership with no inspection behind it, and that membership is often passed off as accreditation.
What the badge means for this school. The school has been through this organisation's accreditation. It was judged as a whole: governance, safeguarding, staff, premises, teaching. The entry stands in the organisation's public register - anyone can check it.
Register to check for yourself, and the full guide →American programme
The American school programme, with the High School Diploma at the end. It usually comes together with AP courses, which the College Board stands behind, and with an American accreditation - MSA, NEASC or Cognia.
What this means for this school. The diploma is written out by the school itself: the American programme has no common leaving exam, and the content of the senior years is set by the school. Outside checking therefore rests on two things here - the accreditation of the school, and the AP exams if the school runs them.

Reviews
No reviews yet. The community rating counts towards the score once a school has five verified reviews - until then we do not show a zero, so as not to mislead.

A low score here means the school does not write about this, not that the school does not have it: a school with good security and a sparse site will score low. A school can fill in its profile, and the score will be counted again.
The score is counted from 7 of the 9 criteria.Only those with checkable data count: programmes and accreditations from official registers, the fee from a published price list. Where it says "scored on the median", the school has no data and the middle of the list is put in its place, so that a gap gives no advantage. Admissions, teaching staff and reviews come in as their data arrives.
