First of all, may Allah rest in peace the souls of all members of the security forces and civilians who died in the recent terrorist attack.

 

26 thousand of total 37 thousand teacher appointments were made to this region”

“We have appointed 26 thousand of 37 thousand newly employed teachers to 29 cities located in East and Southeast Anatolia and now they are on duty. I would like to thank each of these teachers.” 


30 thousand new appointments in February

“We will make new appointments in February. It seems that there will be appoximately 30 thousand appointments but as you know that appointment to state positions are done according to the law.” 


Orientation of newly appointed teachers

“Teachers who will be appointed in February will have the opportunity to receive orientation and on the job training throughout the second semester. Each newly appointed teacher will have an advisor teacher who has at least ten years’ experience in teaching and they will have the opportunity to attend their classes.  


Teachers will learn the culture of their new place of duty

“Teaches who are appointed to eastern and southeastern regions of the country will learn the culture of their new place of duty. They will learn basic terms of mother language of children in the region. Their students and their parents might speak in Zazaki or Kırmanci… Teachers will learn basic terms that will allow them to communicate with them.”


It is important in terms of respectability of our teachers

Opinion leaders will have the opportunity to establish rapport and communication with the society if they have good command of language, tradition and moral values of the region. This will also allow an increase in the quality of education. These are required for the respectability of our teachers.”


Transformation of preparation courses

“From our perspective, there is no hitch in the transformation process of preparation courses. But, disinformation and smear campaign against the Ministry of National Education started after the beginning of this transformation. People were benefiting financially from these courses and from supplementary textbooks without banderole. We ended this scheme.”


304 thousand 435 interactive boards

“Within the framework of FATİH Project, 304 thousand 435 interactive boards have been installed and 1 million and 437 thousand tablet computers have been distributed. There are 41 thousands and 996 multifunctional network printers in our schools.” 


“FATİH Project is not only about software but also about context”

EIN (Education Information Network) is the content provider of the FATİH Project. It is the biggest education portal including more than 150 thousand supplementary educational material. Students have the opportunity to enter the portal throughout the day and reach these materials for free. There are more than 21 thousand test samples in the portal and we are hoping that this figure will rise 60 thousand in a few months’ time.” 


4 million 306 thousand 858 students are attending free supplementary courses

“We have supplementary and refresher courses at the weekends. Students make their application for these courses via EIN. According to the most recent figures, 4 million 306 thousand 858 students are attending free supplementary courses. Our teachers have the opportunity to download any supplementary educational material from EIN and use these during the courses.” 


We have offered various alternatives to preparatory courses for transformation

“Applications for transformation ended on September 1, 2015. 12 preparatory courses transformed into preschool, 16 of them transformed into elementary school, 211 transformed into secondary school and 1222 of them transformed into basic secondary school. Moreover, transformation of 371 preparatory courses is still continuing. As you see, we have offered various alternatives to preparatory courses for transformation.”  


More than 10 thousand students are receiving vocational education located at the industrial zones 

“More than 10 thousand students are receiving vocational education at the vocational and technical schools that are located in 21 organized industrial zones. We want to increase the number of these schools into 100 in a short period of time.”
