Fatih Secondary School Awarded NBS School Expertise
We are thrilled to announce that Fatih Secondary School, located in Kahramankazan, Ankara, Türkiye, has been awarded the prestigious NBS School Expertise! This label celebrates their outstanding efforts in integrating nature-based learning into their curriculum and nurturing environmentally conscious, sustainability-minded generations.
Head of School Tarık Sezer shared his thoughts on what this recognition means for their school:
“The NBS School Expert title is not merely an ordinary award that documents academic or practical success. This label is a prestigious international endorsement of Fatih Secondary School’s vision to nurture nature-centered, environmentally conscious generations. The relationship established with nature in education underscores how vital it is for the personal development of future generations and their connection with the world.”
Fatih Secondary School’s nature-based initiatives have not only heightened students’ environmental awareness but also shaped lasting behavior models rooted in sustainability, social responsibility, and ethical values. Through hands-on experiences, students have explored core concepts such as biodiversity, ecosystem dynamics, and conservation of natural resources—making learning both meaningful and impactful.
The success of this achievement lies in the collective dedication of the entire school community. As Mr. Sezer highlighted, this journey has been made possible thanks to the tireless efforts of the school’s education staff, the curiosity and creativity of their students, and the support of engaged families. Nature has become more than just a classroom—it is now a space for personal growth, empathy, and innovative thinking.
Special recognition goes to Ms. Tuğba Sezer, Scientix-STEM School Coordinator, for her meticulous work in documenting the school’s journey and supporting the STEM School Label process. Her leadership played a crucial role in this well-earned accomplishment.
Congratulations to the entire Fatih Secondary School community for their inspiring commitment to nature-based education. Your work is setting an example for educators across Europe who believe that education should go hand-in-hand with sustainability.
