International Russian School in Antalya

International school in Turkey

International Russian School in Antalya (Russian: Международная русская школа в Анталии, Turkish: Özel Rusya Uluslararası Okulu, Antalya) is a private international school in Antalya, Turkey. It opened on September 1, 2010. The school described itself as a Russian international school, but Mircelol Husanov, the Russian Consul General in Antalya, said that the school, which was using an American curriculum, will not be recognized by authorities as a Russian school because it did not offer a Russian curriculum. The Consulate of Russia in Antalya complained to Antalya education authorities about the school having the Russian flag, so the school took the flag down.[1]

Student body

As of 2010 it had 70 students, all Russians or people from other parts of the former Soviet Union, attending elementary level classes.[1]
