Turkish Department - Introduction
The Turkish Department is an integral part of the English School. The basic goal of the Department is to educate the Turkish Cypriot students to use their mother tongue in the right way, to enable them to understand, interpret and narrate what they read and bring them up as productive, thinking and questioning individuals. The Department also prepares the students for 2nd Language GCE Turkish (OCR Exam Board), IGCSE Turkish (Edexcel Exam Board), AS – A level Turkish (OCR Exam Board) and Telc C1 Turkish Examinations.
Its department’s crucial mission is to provide students with the communicative tools they need in order to become successful users of Turkish at an advanced level. All students follow a course of studies in both Turkish Language and Turkish Literature until end of Year 5 when they sit for A2 level Turkish examination in June exam period. The underlying philosophy of the Department is that all students extend their proficiency in Turkish, both orally and written, as well as to learn about the Turkish language in a worldwide and multicultural context.
