Eraslan Okulu is a private day school in Mavisehir, in the Karsiyaka district of northern Izmir. The school claims 22 years of tradition behind it and completed its present campus in 2015, built for every stage at once from kindergarten to high school. The high school is Eraslan Anadolu Lisesi: from grade 9 students follow a programme intensified in mathematics and the sciences, sit individual subject tests every week and get a personal plan for academic development. The school puts preparation for the national examinations at the centre and gives its own results: a perfect 500 in the LGS examination in 2023 and again in 2025, and one student in seven in the top three per cent of the country. The one international line it names is membership of the Global Schools Program, which it explains through the place of its campus on the fertile land of the Gediz delta and the responsibility it takes for the United Nations sustainable development goals. The school gives as its mission the raising of hard-working, self-disciplined people useful to their society, and rests it on Ataturk's words that wealth and ease belong only to those who work.

About the fees The school does not publish tuition on its site: the page titled fees and registration gives only the registration procedure, a telephone number and online appointment booking, with no figures by stage.
Admissions Kindergarten and primary places are arranged through a meeting at the school: parents book a time by telephone or online, come with the child, and the guidance conversation runs at the same time as a readiness assessment. Entry to the middle school and the high school is by the school's own entrance examination, which also carries the academic scholarship. For grade 9 the school accepts either its own examination or the result of the national LGS examination. In every case registration is completed only after a successful guidance interview.
Stages and year groups Four stages share one campus: kindergarten, primary school, middle school and the Anatolian high school. The kindergarten has its own orientation programme, a young engineers club and life-skills lessons. The middle school runs separate preparation for the national examinations. In the high school, from grade 9, the programme is intensified in mathematics and the sciences, with individual subject tests every week.

Accreditations and programmes verified against official registries
College Board · authorised programmeThe school is listed in the College Board AP Course Ledger for 2025-2026 under number 696094. The school itself names no Advanced Placement courses anywhere on its site: its high school pages speak of preparation for the national examinations, of a programme intensified in mathematics and the sciences and of weekly individual subject tests, and the only international affiliation named is membership of the Global Schools Program. The badge rests on the registry entry.

College BoardCollege Board, the AP programme
An American organisation that allows a school to put the letters AP on a pupil's transcript. The permission is granted course by course and tied to a particular teacher, it has to be renewed every year, and College Board reads the course syllabus before granting it.
What the badge means for this school. The school is allowed to run advanced AP courses - not the school as a whole, but one by one: by subject and by teacher. Governance, safeguarding and the primary years are not part of that check. Which subjects are actually approved is visible in the ledger. The entry stands in the organisation's public register - anyone can check it.

Advanced Placement: American advanced courses for the senior years. The exam for a course is set and marked by the College Board, not by the school. A good result is counted by American universities as a first-year course already passed, which saves a student time and money.
What this means for this school. A school does not get to call a course AP automatically: the College Board reads the course syllabus and approves it separately for every subject and every teacher, and the permission has to be renewed each year. Every approved school in the world is listed in the open AP Course Ledger, and this school's entry there stands as a line in the accreditation block above. How many courses a school is approved for, and in which subjects, the ledger does not show in its general listing. AP has no leaving certificate of its own: it sits on top of the school's main programme rather than being a separate system.
National programme
The state school programme of the country the school stands in: it is set by that country's ministry of education, which also licenses the school and awards the leaving certificate. That certificate is used for entry to local universities, and abroad it is matched to the local one.
What this means for this school. This entry does not count towards the score, and that is deliberate. Every lawful school in a country works to the national programme, so on its own it tells one school apart from no other - unlike the French, German or Russian programmes, which are carried abroad and confirmed by the register of their organisation. We show it because a parent needs to know what programme their child is taught and what certificate the child will get. Counting it would lift the whole ranking at once and still tell nobody apart.

Campus: The campus in Mavisehir was completed in 2015 and designed for all stages at once, from kindergarten to high school; the school calls it the most central campus in Izmir. At its heart is a 350 square metre science floor, and around it an NBA-standard sports court with a climbing wall and a 400-seat stand, a 400-person performance hall, a canteen for 600 students and cafeterias arranged by age group.
Teaching staff
The school publishes neither the number of its teachers nor their qualifications.
Safety and wellbeing from the school's official website

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.
