Illustration · Antalya
A campus in the Muratpasa district of Antalya, teaching from the preschool stage up to the high school. The high school, its own principal says, started work in the 2020-2021 school year, while the primary and middle school are in their fifth year according to their founding principal. The campus calls its teaching bilingual: a child learns the mother tongue deeply and gains English at the same time, and the group calls its own language line MayaWAY and builds it out of stories and games from the preschool stage. The academic frame comes from two IB stages, the PYP and the DP, alongside the national curriculum. The campus belongs to Maya Okullari, which has sites in other Turkish cities and an association of partner schools of its own; the project's network directory does not yet hold it.

About the fees The campus does publish a price, but not as text on the site: it gives two links, one for the preschool, primary and middle school and one for the high school, and both lead to the same fee list for the 2024-2025 school year. There is no current range on the site, so no figures are quoted here: an out-of-date list will not tell a parent the price. The campus does not say what the fee includes or whether it is quoted with VAT.
Admissions The campus does not set out admission conditions on a page of its own. Entry runs through an application form on the site and through the school portal, and separately the campus holds a scholarship examination and announces the day and hour its results appear. Its pages name no entrance tests for ordinary admission and no application deadlines.
Stages and year groups The campus runs a preschool stage, a primary school, a middle school and high schools, both Anatolian and science-and-technology. It does not give a number for its preschool entry age, speaking only of an early age. It splits its fee lists in two: one for the preschool, primary and middle school together, another for the high school.

Accreditations and programmes verified against official registries
IB · PYP, DP · authorised programmeIn the IB registry the campus is listed under code 062028, with two stages: the Primary Years Programme and the Diploma Programme. These are exactly the two stages the campus names itself, in a block titled IB programmes at Antalya Maya. The head of the high school puts it directly: this is a school authorised to deliver the Diploma Programme, that is an IB World School, and a leaver receives the IB diploma alongside the national one. The campus does not publish its IB code on its pages.

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: PYP (ages 3-12), DP (ages 16-19). PYP is the primary stage, ages 3 to 12. It is not a set of subjects but a frame for the whole school: learning is built around lines of inquiry, and there are no exams at the end. 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.
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.
Facilities
The school does not describe its premises on its website.
Teaching staff
The school publishes neither the number of its teachers nor their qualifications.
Safety and wellbeing from the school's official website
The school says nothing on its website about security, medical care or pupil support.
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.
