Strategic Plan
The first five years of Vakıf k12 (2015-20) taught us a lot. We have learned that defining the problems correctly does not always mean that we can create the right solution, but with every project we do, we make an important contribution and develop a better thought out and prepared infrastructure for the next solution.We had set the second term of Vakıf k12 as 2020-23. In this period, we thought and worked more on sustainability, continuity and efficiency. We decided what steps we needed to take to take our structure and work into the next period. We made a strategic partnership with Edict Digital and moved the Reading Tree (OKA) book series to a digital reading platform. We produced a digital reading and learning platform that is fully compatible with the Ministry of National Education curriculum. In addition to OP(Reading Platform), we started to digitally transform other projects With the evaluation we made at the end of this period and the strategic plan we created, we planned 2024-2025 as the 3rd period of Vakıf k12. Below we share the general framework of our strategic plan.Strategic Plan 2024 - 25

and to contribute to becoming individual learners using 21st century tools.
Mathematical Thinking
To improve the abstract mathematical thinking skills of 5-13 year old students with the Mathematics Platform,
using 21st century tools to help them understand mathematics in life and achieve self-learning.
Culture and Life
To improve students perception of history and aesthetics, develop their literary culture, and contribute to their work analysis skills through learning platforms with cultural content,
to comprehend the connections between the Tanzimat period and the works of this period and the historical process through learning platforms with cultural content.
