PRIVATE ENKA VOCATIONAL and TECHNICAL HIGH SCHOOL SCIENCE and TECHNOLOGY HIGH SCHOOL 2014-2018 STRATEGIC PLAN DILOVASI/KOCAELI AUGUST-2017
INTRODUCTION In a fairytale, a girl who runs after a rabbit comes to a parting of the ways and asks the rabbit which way to follow. The rabbit replies: ‘If you don’t know where to go, there is no point in which way you go.’ We, as the architects who will raise Turkey’s youth generation of the future, have to plan about how to educate our students with significant objectives. Strategic planning is considered to be the golden key of advancement for those countries leading the world. It is known that most of the countries have their own strategic plans for the next 50 years and even have plans about managing relations with their neighbors. The Ministry of Education has identified the general principles of curriculum and education activities with regulations. Apart from that, the strategic planning of schools requires that the school be able to work towards achievable goals in order to better educate its students in their own region and within their own specific conditions. The education of our school under the Enka Sports, Education and Social Aid Foundation has made it possible for us to broaden our strategic planning objectives. With this strategic planning, our school which is the first technical school whose students receive full academic scholarships will lead many more developments and will make important contributions to the Turkish industry. I would like to thank all of our school staff members who participated in the preparation of the strategic planning. Hüseyin KAYAN

II.SECTION CURRENT STATUS ANALYSIS
PEST ANALYSIS Politics
Our school is involved in three main activities as mentioned in the MEB strategic plan: • Formal and non-formal education services for the qualified workforce required by industry and service sectors. • Opening of vocational courses within the context of lifelong learning to increase the sensitivity and entrepreneurship of the changing and developing economy. • Giving a superior applied academic education in the field of science and technology. The decisions of the Ministry of National Education (MoNE) also support vocational education. Economic All students studying at our school are studying as scholars. All of the expenses of teachers, students, assistant staff and building are covered by Enka Sports Education and Social Aid Foundation. Social Educational levels of the students of our school are increasing every year. The positive and negative aspects of this situation should be evaluated by the guidance teachers. The series on the media and the people on the agenda can be a negative example for students from the social side. Technological Internet and computing tools are rapidly becoming popular and access to them is getting easier every day. Students and some parents can easily use the internet and enjoy all the communication features of mobile phones. In addition, e-school applications are an important support given by MEB in this area. It is necessary for parents to be informed about e-school in order to protect students from harmful effects of the internet. Educational technologies have advanced considerably in making training environments more efficient. In all classes in our school, internet, projector or intelligent projector are fixed. In addition, all of our teachers have been given free laptop computers in order to use these facilities more efficiently.
