In our school, students start with a preparatory year and there is placement exam which helps us evaluate the newcomers’ levels. The aim of the Preparatory Class, 9th-12th Grades English Curriculum is to engage learners of English in challenging, motivating, and enjoyable learning environments so that they become effective, fluent, and accurate communicators in English. Under the supervision of their teachers, learners can contribute to material and task design by bringing in self-prepared materials to the learning environment and act as decision makers/reflective individuals in their own learning.
Support from the administrators’ is fundamental in applying the curriculum exclusively in assessment. It is of great importance for administrators to acknowledge the unique needs of English as a Subject of study.
In addition, English is used mostly as the language of science and technology. In order to share their ideas, knowledge and culture with other people from different cultures and countries, our learners need to use English actively, productively, and communicatively.
The teaching program for English has been prepared in line with the general goals of Turkish
National Education as defined in the Basic Law of the National Education No. 1739, along with the Main Principles of Turkish National Education.
