Amjad Al-Orouba School — Istanbul

Amjad Al-Orouba School in Istanbul is one of the projects of Amjad Al-Orouba Company for Educational Services — established in 1999, giving the parent organisation more than 25 years of educational experience. The school provides its educational services from Kindergarten through high school, and is licensed by Turkey's Ministry of National Education (MEB).

Rich learning environment: The school provides students with a rich educational environment that:

• Strengthens students' scientific, artistic, and innovative capabilities
• Develops their talents
• Provides the latest innovative explanation and teaching tools
• Is overseen by a qualified teaching staff with experience and competence

English-language partnership — a distinguishing feature: Amjad Al-Orouba focuses on English-language instruction through a direct contract with California Hills School — bringing in an external partner specifically to ensure high-quality English-language education. This partnership-based approach:

• Provides standardised English instruction following an established framework
• Gives students exposure to international English-teaching standards
• Distinguishes Amjad Al-Orouba from schools relying solely on in-house language teaching

Turkish and Quran focus: The school gives special attention to teaching the Turkish language (for societal integration and Turkish university pathway) and to the Quran (for religious education and Arabic literacy through Quranic recitation).

Grade levels: Complete pathway from Kindergarten through high school (Grade 12).

Languages of instruction:

• Arabic — primary language for Arab curriculum subjects
• English — via the California Hills partnership
• Turkish — for integration

Annual fees: In line with Arabic-curriculum schools in Istanbul, expect a range of approximately $3,000–6,500 USD per year depending on grade level. Sibling discounts and installment plans typically available — contact the school for current figures.

Recognition: MEB-licensed in Turkey. Specific Arab-country curriculum accreditations should be verified directly with the school — particularly important for families planning future moves to or applications in specific Arab countries.

What to verify before enrolment: Current MEB license, specific curriculum accreditation, current status of the California Hills English partnership, available grade levels for the academic year, and transportation routes from your district.
