Character Education

The Stirling Schools Guidance Service aims to raise individuals who love their homeland, are integrated with the world, adopt universal and ethical values, respect the environment, and possess both analytical and free-thinking skills.

The Guidance Service, which carries out its activities within this framework, follows the character education as well as the scientific development of the students.

We implement Stirling Values Curriculum starting from Kindergarten up to the Grade 12 to help students possess the ‘character profile’ set.

These values are delivered through different activities, events and most importantly via role modeling by Stirling Teachers and in particular homeroom teachers who spend most of their times with the students.
