Our Values
Hisar School is an educational institution which believes in universal and contemporary values and also stands as a role model for the global community in a democratic and secular Turkish Republic enlightened by Ataturk’s principles and revolutions.

In our school, we embrace diversity, and give importance to create an environment in which differences are recognized, appreciated and encouraged. In the light of the United Nation’s Declaration of the Universal Human Rights, we believe and act according to the principle that each individual is a valuable member of the global community.

According to our philosophy of education, each child has the right to reach and further improve his/her true potential through the opportunities provided for him/her. In line with this philosophy, our school therefore focuses on creating a learning environment and structure in which students are supported to attain and fulfill their true potential.

In our school, learning through understanding holds a natural place in our daily lives. Living with high moral values, having a strong character, being socially responsible, as well as being capable of questioning and being creative are all as valuable as academic achievement.

In order for our students to be effective, knowledgeable, and successful individuals in a varied, changing and globalizing world, we guide them and offer them a myriad of opportunities and experiences, emphasizing problem-solving skills, critical thinking skills, and responsible decision-making skills.

We encourage our students and provide them with the knowledge and the courage to take responsibility for their own intellectual and moral development; therefore, they acquire the power to overcome any difficulties they may face, as well as to welcome opportunities they might come across in life, in a confident manner. This can be realized through the high quality inclusive environment created by mutual respect and interactions that are characterized by trust among students, as well as between students and teachers.  Such an environment stimulates a sense of exploration and provides for continuous learning, as well as for the development of the leadership skills of our students.

Our goal is to educate our students as individuals who are capable of self actualization, who are open to constant development, who can and will shape the future; they will realize that they are an inseparable component of the eco-system.

We accept it as our main duty to offer our wealth of human resources, our infrastructure, our academic knowledge and experiences in order to make a difference in educating and raising well-equipped and well-qualified individuals.

Our philosophy of management dictates full collaboration with all our partners in a democratic and transparent atmosphere, one in which each party is autonomous, yet in coordination and cooperation with all other parties. In our institution, we believe in a strong work ethic and that this work ethic can lead us to high quality performance.
We are very much aware of the fact that the caring, respectful and welcoming environment we create for our students also supports and improves the interests, abilities and characters of our staff members. Therefore, it is our great honor to be employed by and be a part of Hisar Educational Foundation Schools.
