Welcome to Sunny Lane School and we hope that you find this pack informative, giving you an initial insight into our school.  However, this is no substitute for seeing a school in action and we invite you to visit us at Alsancak whenever you would like to make an appointment. We will always remember that the most important person in our school is your child.

Sunny Lane School was opened in 2001 as an independent Primary School with just 12 pupils. Today it has expanded into a school with Primary and Secondary Departments catering for children from two and half to sixteen years of age; its numbers have risen to around 250 and its teachers to over 25.  We are the only school in the country following the English National Curriculum, but with paired English and Turkish teaching teams up to Year 4 ensuring that our Turkish-speaking students learn English, while all English-speaking students learn Turkish, as their second modern language. The success of our school in all areas has created very high demand for places, often for several years into the future and most classes now operate a Waiting List.

Sunny Lane School is a friendly, family, independent school located in a beautiful and friendly country. It offers good standards of English education and works with the TRNC Ministry of Education to advise on improving standards in local public schools.

OUR MISSION

To be a school for Early Years to IGCSE age groups, for both English-speaking students and those for whom English is their second language. To be a school whose curriculum is the English National Curriculum and whose systems of education reflect the best of the English independent school system.  To be a school that is proud to educate within the culture of the TRNC.  To be a school whose members are part of a caring community, preparing in all respects for their adult lives to follow.
