Istanbul welcomes new academic year with 2.7M students

Istanbul is preparing to start the 2026-2027 academic year with approximately 2.7 million students enrolled in 7,529 schools across the city. The new year will see 157,418 teachers supporting students, with significant investments in school infrastructure, digital education, and safety measures. Authorities plan to implement the 'Türkiye Century Education Model,' which emphasizes skill development, values, and connecting academic knowledge to real-world applications. The city will open 82 new schools, including kindergartens, primary, middle, and high schools, and has completed renovations at 313 schools. Over 22.1 million of the 41.1 million planned textbooks have been distributed, and digital education platforms will be expanded, with a transition to Turkey's domestic Linux-based operating system. Special attention will be given to student engagement, attendance, and personalized education programs.
