As 2012, there are about 1250 students from pre-k to grade 12. While Enka Foundation makes a substantial contribution necessary to maintain the school’s financial viability, the school exists as an independent non-profit corporation directed by an unsalaried Executive Committee, which is in turn reviewed by a voluntary Board of Advisors. The program uses both Turkish and English as the teaching languages. A bilingual community is fostered within the school through language instruction for teachers as well as for students. In addition, as students become proficient in English, they move on to learning a third language such as French or German. The curriculum enables graduating students to meet all the requirements for the International Baccalaureate. The Istanbul Enka School provides scholarships to more than 200 students a year. The school has extracurricular activities such as drama, chess, creative games, dancing, community volunteering, model-making and outdoor pursuits such as climbing, archeology and camping. Students also learn from tutors and professionals in the visual and performing arts fields. Students of the school share the training grounds with Enka Sports Club for use in their physical training classes. In addition, about 600 students participate in the after schools program five days a week under the supervision of the club trainers. Outstanding students are coached to competition level. In October, 1999, following the earthquake in the Sea of Marmara region east of Istanbul, ENKA Schools opened a school for the young victims of this disaster. The campus is situated near Adapazarı, a mid-sized industrial city in which most of the buildings were destroyed and the population decimated. The school serves more than four hundred pre-school, primary and high school children in a new community. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「ENKA Schools」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
