Cozum Academy Schools

What Cozum Academy Schools does

Çözüm Akademi Okulları (Cozum Academy Schools) is a private K-12 educational institution network headquartered in Ankara, Turkey, operating 24 campuses across at least 13 provinces including Ankara, Istanbul, Izmir, Mersin, Kars, Gaziantep, Diyarbakır, Hatay, Antalya, Kocaeli, Afyonkarahisar, Tekirdağ, and Giresun. The network operates under the Çözüm Eğitim Kurumları (Çözüm Education Institutions) parent and serves Turkish families seeking comprehensive private education from preschool (Anaokulu) through high school (Lise), with structured preparation for the LGS high school entrance and YKS university entrance exams.

The educational offering is built around two proprietary pedagogical models — KİRAZ (student-centered learning) and TUBA (technology literacy, including a D-STEM curriculum inspired by Stanford University Design School) — supplemented by licensed programs such as GEMS (UC Berkeley/Lawrence Science Center) and Maker Lab. The technology layer centers on the Çözüm Digital Twins platform, developed in partnership with Microsoft Education, which creates digital twins of physical classrooms so students can attend live lessons synchronously from home. Supporting infrastructure includes K12NET integration, cozumegitim.tv video content delivery, the AKADEMİNET parent/student portal, and the ÇözümID digital identity system. Partnerships with Cambridge University Press (English curriculum), Erasmus+ (international student exchange), TÜBİTAK (science project training), the Ministry of Youth and Sports (athletics), and five Turkish universities (Doğu Akdeniz, Haliç, Işık, Üsküdar, plus Riga Technical University) round out the ecosystem.

Revenue is generated through tuition fees paid by enrolled families across the 24 campuses, supplemented by ancillary exam-preparation programs (YKS/LGS Hazırlık), assessment testing, and the Çözüm Yayın Grubu publishing arm. Go-to-market is direct-to-consumer, with an online pre-registration portal feeding admissions at each campus and franchise-based expansion to grow the geographic footprint. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is communicated individually after inquiry. Marketing emphasizes documented exam results, sports championships, and competition wins (TEKNOFEST 2024 Adana Champion, 2021 LGS Turkey 1st place, 2022 LGS Turkey 1st place winners).
