What We Believe

At Milestone International School - Istanbul, we believe in providing a holistic

learning experience that families can call home. Visionary learning is matched

with existing, robust curriculum to allow every student to reach their learning

potential.

Our Vision

Milestone International School – Istanbul believes that every child can strive to

flourish holistically – academically, creatively, emotionally, socially and physically.

Growth in all dimensions of the human experience will prepare children to not

only be successful students but will prepare them to be responsible citizens of

their home countries and the larger global community. Full participation in the

21 st Century community demands citizens to have responsibility, flexibility,

knowledge and compassion.

Our Mission

At Milestone International School we dedicate ourselves to the holistic success of

every child. We will provide a robust curriculum in core and specialist subjects to

allow every student to fully meet their learning potential. We will utilize

advanced and respected curriculum and digital technology. We will empower

student success through students’ reflections, varied learning arrangements and

challenges, and finding methods to allow every learner to fully express their

understandings. We will adhere to following the best assessment policies to gain

objective measures of growth and informed data on every child. We will aim to

make learning a joyful experience that will become a life-long journey for each

student.

Our Learning

At Milestone we provide a holistic education that allows every child to flourish to

their own potential. We provide success for learners in core subjects and meet US

Common Core and the California Department of Education standards. English is

our language of instruction and we have substantial support systems in place to

assist students for whom English is not their first language. We use digital devices

and platforms to enhance learning and equip learners with the digital literacy

required in the 21 st Century. We cultivate the values of learners through

reflective cognition, the beauty of arts and music, and the recognition of social

and emotional understandings. We develop students’ physical abilities through

movement in time and space, using equipment and working as a team.

Core Values

At Milestone International School, we are creating an impactful core values

system that will guide all of our students on their journey - instilling in them the

values that they will require as responsible global citizens in the 21 st Century. Our

core values are practiced and modeled by all staff and students, and provide a

foundation to our wonderful learning community. Students will walk in the door

at Milestone International School and enjoy a community founded in core values

that every student, regardless of age, can understand and replicate. These core

values are chosen to enable staff and students to reach their potential and feel

empowered by knowing that every voice, idea and belief matter.

Our core values at Akkad International are Tenacity, Innovation, Courage,

Kindness. They will be communicated to and expected of every member of our

learning community. They will form the “TICK” acronym which will be used

throughout our system to reinforce expected outcomes from our staff and

students.
