We studied at this school for a year and a half and, unfortunately, our experience turned out to be extremely disappointing. The key issues that we have encountered are described below. 1. Staff turnover and unprofessional teachers From the very beginning, the constant staff turnover is striking — teachers change literally every 2-3 months. This destabilizes the learning process and prevents children from adapting. There is a high probability that the majority of foreign teachers do not have specialized pedagogical education — information about qualifications is hidden from parents. In practice, it seems that the main requirement is simply knowledge of English. Even with diplomas, the level of English among Turkish teachers is often very low, which is especially critical for a school that offers an international program. In addition, many teachers are negligent about their duties: lessons are often not held, children can negotiate with the teacher and instead go to play on the computer or just have fun. There is no control over this — the students are on their own. 2. The dubious Cambridge Program Upon admission to the school, all parents were informed that the school has a valid Cambridge license. In fact, it turned out that there was no license at that time — and it is still unknown whether it actually exists. Visually, this is just an imitation: "certificates" are hung on the walls, but no real information about the legality of the program and accreditation is provided. The coordinator of the Cambridge program, instead of helping children and providing an international level of education, actually only hinders. There is no preparation for the annual Cambridge exams or it is conducted formally. The Cambridge English language exam itself, which is supposed to confirm the level of knowledge of students, is taken not as students of a school in Antalya, but under the auspices of a completely different school from Izmir. This raises serious doubts about the transparency and legitimacy of the entire system. A logical question arises: why can't an Antalya school take exams on its own behalf if it really has a license? Given that tuition for this program costs over $10,000 per year, such opacity is unacceptable. 3. Nutrition Nutrition is a separate pain. The food in the school cafeteria is absolutely not adapted for children from Slavic countries. It may be acceptable for Turkish students, but it simply does not suit most other children. Appeals to the administration did not yield results: the maximum is temporary improvements for 1-2 days. The school sends the menu for a month, but for the entire period 1-2 dishes turn out to be really edible. At the same time, children are offered 3-4 positions every day, of which most remain untouched. If the child does not want to eat in the cafeteria, he has only one option — a shop on the school grounds. But the prices there are so high that even in Antalya restaurants you can eat cheaper. This creates additional financial and organizational difficulties. 4. Conclusion If you have the opportunity, never send your child to this school. Even if you have no alternative among other private schools, it would be much more reasonable to hire individual teachers and create a personal educational route for the child. For the same money, you will receive a much better quality of education than what Muratpaşa Gökkuşağı Schools offers.

The school spends all its efforts on creating a positive image, but is unable to provide proper academic education. Teachers are lazy and unmotivated, to the point that it has become the norm for them to sit with phones during all lessons and hand out pieces of paper to students, allowing them to draw and communicate freely. The school's weekly academic reports are nonsense and do not correspond to the reality of what the students have learned. Grades at school are deceptively high; classroom teachers are motivated to instill in parents a false sense of confidence and pride in their children during parent-teacher conferences. The workbooks are mostly empty, and the regular notebooks are empty too. Most children prefer to starve during the day rather than eat the food they are served in the cafeteria. The water from the cooler is not clean enough to drink and contains pathogenic bacteria, according to a laboratory test. Students don't even warm up before physical education classes, and they tap wooden sticks on tables during music lessons, calling them "instruments," and as the head teacher says, "we create a real orchestra with them." None of the numerous complaints from parents to the school administration were taken seriously or properly addressed. The top management of this school network ignores all messages from parents. Dozens of parents whom I personally know chose to pick up their children in the middle of the school year in 2025 due to extreme disappointment at school. Bottom line: poor academic education at school; daily demonstration of spoiled role models to children; suppression of children's curiosity and ambitions; the complaint procedure does not work. The school is unable to provide clean drinking water and healthy food while meeting students' physical well-being needs. Please note that most of the good reviews are fake or irrelevant (from random people who are not parents). Moreover, the school finds it acceptable to report bad reviews as containing hatred and slander.
