Most of the students come from the rural areas and stay at the dormitory of the school. Faik Şahenk Vocational and Technical High School has created a School Development and Management Team, and it is formed of 20 teachers.

 

In the project team, there are the headmaster, the head assistants, the counsellor, the chef of the Construction Department, the chef of the Electrical-Electronics Department, the chef of the ICT Department, the head of the foreign languages and 10 other teachers. The succes rate of our school has been decreasing deeply; only 7 students could go to the faculties because of some problems.

The most important reason is that there are students from different countries like Afghanistan, Iran, Syria, etc..., and they face some social problems. Also, majority of our students come from the rural areas of our city, and they are economically, emotionally and socially deprived students. So, we have decided to take part in an Erasmus Project whose subject is culture and whose aim is cultural tolerance. In this way, we can replace the culture of war with a culture of peace. As a result of it , they can feel themselves to be a part of a  comprehensible and harmonious school and social life.
