About the English School of Istanbul (ESI) Preschool:

The English School of Istanbul Preschool is the first branch of ESK in Turkey opening for the 2013-2014 academic year in Istanbul. Over the coming years, the Istanbul school plans to grow into a full Primary, and then Secondary, school following the same international curriculum as ESK. The aim is that this year’s preschool students will be able to continue their education at ESI through to their high school graduation.

Our Mission:
As the ESI team, our mission is to develop successful, caring, independent citizens of Turkey and the world, who are able to lead the future generations with their intelligence, values and determination. All of our teachers have UK Qualified Teacher's Status (QTS).

International Preschool Curriculum for Boys & Girls Ages 3-6:

We encourage our boys and girls to reach their personal and academic potential whilst nurturing their curiosity and encouraging individuality and creative thought. The English School of Istanbul’s ethos is caring, student-centred and international. We offer every opportunity for our students to reach their full potential.

Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS)
The EYFS framework sets the UK standards for learning, development and care for children from birth to five. The curriculum is built around four principles:

- A Unique Child
- Positive Relationships
- Enabling Environments
- Learning and Development

Location:
The school is located in the heart of the Anatolian side of Istanbul within a stone’s throw of both Kadıköy and Bağdat Street. The school building is set within a mature garden in a quiet residential street. The garden provides opportunities for an inspiring education both inside and outside the classroom.
