Security and Safeguarding Policy

At Özkaya Education Institutions, security is not just a list of rules, it is the foundation of our school culture. With international protection protocols we apply in every area from campus entrance to internet use, we provide our children with a peaceful, safe, and loving environment.

Our Holistic Security Circle

Physical Security and Campus Order

At our school, we implement security measures without overwhelming students but without compromising standards. With strict tracking of entrances and exits and campus inspections, we ensure our children receive education in peace throughout the day.

  • Controlled school entrance and exit management
  • Security monitoring with cameras in common areas
  • Emergency plans and evacuation preparations
  • Security standards in transportation and services

Emotional Trust and Well-being

We believe that a child who is not happy at school cannot be successful in class. While our guidance unit ensures our students feel good and valued, it acts with a "Zero Tolerance" stance on peer bullying.

  • Professional counseling support and student meetings
  • Work to prevent peer bullying
  • Regular tracking of students' emotional states
  • Guidance support in cooperation with families

Digital Security and Conscious Use

Instead of keeping our children away from technology, we educate them against the risks of the digital world. We aim to keep them safe online not with prohibitions but with awareness of correct use.

  • Protection and privacy of personal data
  • Internet filters against harmful content
  • Cyberbullying and digital footprint awareness
  • Education on ethical and correct use of technology

Transparent and Trustworthy Operation

Communication and Solution Process

At our school, we approach every security-related issue with the principle of "the child's best interest." When our student, parent, or staff member shares a concern; we listen without prejudice, carefully protect confidentiality, and quickly activate solution steps.

  • Secure communication channels based on confidentiality
  • Transparent recording system where the process is tracked step by step
  • Solution process jointly conducted by guidance and school management
  • Correct and timely cooperation with official institutions when necessary

Competent Staff and Continuous Education

We select our team to whom we entrust your children with great care. Child safety is not a procedure for us, it is institutional culture. Therefore, we continue to support all our teachers and staff with current training throughout the year.

  • Current 'Safeguarding' training throughout the year
  • Comprehensive reference and background checks in the recruitment process
  • Full compliance with current regulations and school policies
  • Work approach focused on continuous observation and feedback
