Yıldırım Beyazıt Anadolu Lisesi is a local secondary school established in 1995. It is in a
residential district located on the outskirts of Kırıkkale, a newly-developing industrial city in the
Central Anatolia Region of Turkey with a population of 200.000 residents.
In our school, we have 43 (16 female / 27 male) committed and enthusiastic staff members mostly
with over 10 years of teaching experience who aim to make learning stimulating for the students so
that they are motivated to do their best within a broad and creative curriculum. We have 644 (340
female / 304 male) students aged between 14-17 coming from the surrounding neighbourhoods of
Kırıkkale after a national qualifying examination (TEOG) to enroll in our school. Our students do not
have a high standard of living in general and they need support from their social environment,
families and the state in some aspects of their lives.
educated and/or disinterested families and their disadvantageous family background characteristics
have a considerable impact on their academic performance; they are more likely to face some
significant problems in their school lives ( lack of active engagement and failure in the lessons, lack
of motivation, aimlessness, lack of social adaptation, lack of discipline, bullying, etc.).
Our school is an academically-focused secondary school offering various courses of studies mainly
based on Maths, Science(Physics, Chemistry, Biology), Social Sciences (History, Geography,
Philosophy) and Language (Turkish, English, German) and we prepare our students for the further
academic studies at universities. We have 40 hours of lessons per each class a week and our
students can also attend supplementary courses at school at the weekends to reinforce previously
taught subjects and prepare for the exams. In addition to regular school curriculum, we also offer a
wide range of extra-curricular activities including sports competitions, chess tournaments, drama
and poem performances. We also carry out some innovative programs and projects in the scope of
Total Quality Management such as 'The Coaching Project' to guide our 12th Grade students for the
university entrance exams
We have an 'E-Twinning And European Union Project Club' in which our students are carrying out
the national E-Twinning Reading Project that is already mentioned and seeking for international
cooperation with the other schools and students from all over Europe. Among the facilities in our
