Admissions Admission, transfer and attendance follow the ministry regulation for private educational institutions. Marmara Koleji and Marmara Fen Lisesi admit on the result of the national high school entrance examination: each year the school's examination board sets the percentile band or the minimum score on which places are offered. Graduates of the Marmara secondary school are admitted without an entrance examination, on the report of its management, with the consent of the group's senior management and in the proportion set by the same board. Transfers from other schools are handled under ministry rules and against available places.
Stages and year groups Grades 9-12. The Anatolian High School runs from grade 9 to grade 12. The campus gives its class size as 14 and its teaching rooms as 56 across all stages. A kindergarten, a primary school, a secondary school and a Fen Lisesi work beside the Anatolian High School on the same site.

IB · DP · authorised programmeMarmara Eğitim Kurumları · school is part of the networkThe high school holds an IB record for the Diploma Programme. The site's general IB DP section explains that the programme is designed for ages 16 to 19, runs for two years and gives an internationally recognised university entrance qualification, but the specifics in that section are tied to the Istanbul high school. On the Kocaeli campus pages, IB appears in news items about its pupils' projects. The school does not publish its IB code.

IBInternational Baccalaureate
A Swiss non-profit, working since 1968. Its programmes are among the most widely recognised school programmes in the world. Authorisation is granted stage by stage, so a school with the final stage does not necessarily run the younger ones; which stages this school holds is set out in the line below.
What the badge means for this school. The school is allowed to run this programme and to award its certificate. This is a confirmation of the programme, not a judgement on the school as a whole. The entry stands in the organisation's public register - anyone can check it. At this school: DP (ages 16-19). DP is the final stage, ages 16 to 19: six subjects plus a compulsory core of theory of knowledge, an extended essay and CAS. The diploma is accepted by universities all over the world, and in a number of countries it counts for admission on the same footing as the local leaving certificate.
Register to check for yourself, and the full guide →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.
Marmara Eğitim Kurumlarıschool network
A private group begun in 1985 with the Çağdaşım kindergarten in Maltepe in Istanbul; the site names no holding and no foundation above the schools - there is the name of the group, a message from the founder and a message from the chief executive. Three campuses: the Istanbul one in Maltepe, which moved into its present building in 2002-2003; Bodrum, the first campus outside Istanbul, opened in 1997; and Kocaeli-Kartepe, the third, opened in 2017. On each campus the kindergarten, the primary and middle schools and the high schools stand as separate institutions, so there are more units than addresses. The group dates its CIS accreditation and its right to award the International Baccalaureate diploma to 2008; of programmes it names Erasmus+, the European Youth Parliament, the International Youth Award and the Fulbright and Rotary exchanges.
What this means for this school. The network owns or operates the school. Its accreditation and programme authorisation the school obtains separately, in its own name.
Exams and destinations from the school's official website
The school publishes nothing about where its leavers go: no share going on to university, no exam results, no list of universities.

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 4 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.
