Our school is in the center of Bursa in Turkey. It has about 800 pupils and 46 teachers. It is a mixed public school where the pupils are placed after a nationwide exam. Our school is not a big school but one of the best schools in Bursa. Our school has facilities like tennis courts and a gym. All the classes are equipped with smart boards and we are the only school in Bursa where ITEC Projects have been applied.
The pupils are between the ages of 14 and 18 and the level of them is high and they are really hardworking and highly motivated but they generally come from the families with low incomes. Although they need to improve themselves and broaden their horizons, they don't have many opportunities to improve themselves, practise their English apart from the class environment.
Through this project and the team work, they will have the opportunity of exchanging cultures with the other countries, share the similarities and differences and practise their English which they have been learning as their second language and have the habit of establishing empathy. Also they will have the opportunity of seeing a different country, experiencing different lifestyles and cultures, sharing ideas in different topics.
Our project leader is Mrs. Hilal Doğu. She is an English teacher and she is the head of English Department.
