Cities / Istanbul / Kazanim International School

Kazanim International School



  • Arabic-medium and English (Cambridge) school in Istanbul, founded 2015, accredited by the Turkish Ministry of National Education and serving a largely Arabic-speaking expat community.
  • Online reviews split sharply. Positive parent feedback praises staff variety and the Cambridge offer; critical parent feedback includes a complaint that a graduation certificate was issued under a different school's name because the original campus was not authorised to issue it.
  • Independent forum signal in English is minimal. Most discussion sits in Arabic and on directory review pages.
  • Limited international student mix is a recurring observation; the school functions more as a community school for Arabic-speaking families.
