I warmly welcome you to the website of the Maarif Hungarian-English Bilingual Primary and High School. On our website, you can get acquainted with the work of our school and the diverse and colorful activities that we have been carrying out in our institution since September 1, 2020.
Our school was founded in 2019 by Maarif Hungary Nonprofit Ltd. In our educational work, we also take into account the educational philosophy of the Turkish Maarif Foundation. The Foundation conducts educational activities in more than 55 countries, is present in 112 countries with various initiatives, operates 466 educational institutions, and has more than 50,000 students enrolled in these institutions. In Hungary, our institution is the one that is part of this international network, which provides us the opportunity to participate in international competitions and camps organized by the foundation. Our students proudly wear the uniform of Maarif Schools, thereby expressing their belonging to this large, international community.
We consider to educate our students about environmental awareness as our priority, also to enhance their self-awareness, and preserve their physical and mental health. The high-level teaching of foreign languages also plays an important role in our school. We teach English at an advanced level, and starting from September 2021, we have launched bilingual language preparatory classes for the 9th grade. As a second foreign language, students can choose between Spanish and Turkish. Non-Hungarian students participate in Hungarian as a foreign language classes either as extracurricular activities or as part of the curriculum. We take individual abilities into account, providing opportunities for talent development and catching up where needed.
In our institution, well-prepared educators who speak foreign languages are ready to welcome our students, and they consider it their duty to impart knowledge, introduce general human values, and foster national values among the students.
I hope that our website has piqued your interest and that it helps you get to know our institution.
