TED Rönesans Koleji

What TED Rönesans Koleji does

TED Rönesans Koleji is a private K-12 educational institution operating from a single LEED Gold-certified campus in the Maltepe district of Istanbul, Türkiye. Founded in 2014 and operated by Rönesans Özel Okulları Eğitim Öğretim Hizmetleri A.Ş., the school functions as the Istanbul branch of Türk Eğitim Derneği (TED), a nonprofit educational foundation established in 1928. It serves pre-school through high school students (ages 4–18), delivering the Turkish national curriculum alongside international programs including AP (Advanced Placement) and Oxford AQA GCSE, with multilingual instruction in English plus German, Spanish, French, and Russian as second foreign languages.

The school's product surface comprises traditional K-12 academic instruction, dedicated domestic and international university preparation tracks, psychological counselling and career guidance, and a broad extracurricular portfolio spanning sports, arts, robotics, and cultural-heritage projects. Its technology layer is conventional rather than AI-native: a digital parent communication platform (ConnecTED, with iOS and Android applications), 3D virtual campus tours, monthly e-bulletins, and the Monster Phonics UK Department for Education-approved systematic synthetic phonics programme for early literacy. Notable partnerships include CIS (Council of International Schools), e-Twinning, Eco-Schools, Common Sense Education, BTEC (exclusively implemented across TED schools in Turkey), World Scholar's Cup, European Youth Parliament, Hour of Code, and İstinye Üniversitesi.

The revenue model is B2C tuition-based; tuition and registration fees are not publicly disclosed and prospective families are directed to contact the school or apply via the official portal. Distribution is direct-to-family through the institutional website, the ConnecTED portal and mobile applications, and parent seminars and introduction meetings held annually. The institution has 188 employees, no disclosed external funding or M&A activity, and operates exclusively within the Istanbul market under the broader TED school network umbrella.
