GÜNGÖREN ALİ FUAT CEBESOY İMAM HATİP ORTAOKULU
Our school is located in European side of Istanbul which was the capital of three empires in the history. The school was established in 1993 and rebuilt in 2012 and has a short history, it has been one of the best known schools in the region thanks to its great success in education and sport competitions. There are 661 pupils including SEN pupils, from the 5th grade to the 8th grade, between the ages of 10 and 14 at school. 

All our classrooms are well equipped as there are smart boards, projectors and computers in each classroom. Our school is awarded White Flag because it is a clean and hygienic school.

We offer classes of Science, Mathematics, Computer Science, Foreign Language(English), social sciences, arts and Sports in classrooms decorated for each branch teacher and the pupils change classrooms for each lesson. Even if we have English classes from the 4th grade, the pupils don't have the chance to practice as they cannot travel to any other country. Because most of our pupils come from poor families who immigrated from Anatolia or Roman families. Although our students are really skillful in arts and sports, they can improve themselves as much as they see and unfortunately they are limited with this area because they cannot go even to other cities. And thanks to this project, our pupils will have the chance to improve their language and art skills, to go to partner countries, to know new people, to learn about new cultures as it is obvious that they cannot do any of these by themselves or with their poor economy.

We want to prove an interest in the cooperation with other European schools in order to broaden our perspective, improve the quality of teaching, learning and school management. We are also interested in enlarging our perspective concerning different teaching methods and approaches such as interdisciplinary teaching, thus opening new perspectives for our teachers and pupils. Learning about different cultures and civilizations will enable our pupils to become more aware and tolerant towards European countries, especially now when Turkey is about to be a member of the European Union and it is our priority to contribute to the participation process of Turkey to European Union, to ensure that our pupils become active European citizens in future and to help the students become the adults of a multicultural inclusive society.
