Guidance Unit

In today's educational approach, it is accepted that each student has individual differences, making student-centered education and teaching more important. Therefore, the importance of Psychological Counseling and Guidance (PDR) services is increasing. 

The Private Ankara ABC Middle School Guidance Services are based on providing assistance to help students know themselves better, be aware of their characteristics, recognize the opportunities and options available to them, make realistic decisions for themselves, develop their potentials, show appropriate coping skills in the face of obstacles and problems, and adapt to their environment. 

Within this scope, the activities of the ABC Middle School Guidance Service are as follows: 

Orientation and Adjustment Activities: These activities include activities that will facilitate the adaptation of students who are new to the school to their peer group, school culture, and education program.

Getting to Know the Individual: The first condition for providing the most effective service to students is to know them. Our main goal is to help individuals get to know themselves. For this purpose, both tests and non-test techniques are applied.

Group Counseling

Group activities for students are carried out to enable students to acquire knowledge in line with their needs or as determined by the Psychological Counseling and Guidance Unit. Group guidance activities are organized for students' educational and vocational guidance and for their individual and social development.

Students participating in group activities have the opportunity to see that other students with similar problems to themselves are also present. In addition, they find the opportunity to express themselves more comfortably in a group environment. In these activities, students are offered activities where they can develop their social skills.

Efforts to Increase Academic Achievement: At our school, efforts are made for students to take responsibility, make plans, manage their time, and acquire effective study habits. Students' academic achievements are monitored by the guidance service, and the results are shared with our teachers and parents, and evaluated.

Values Education Project: The values education program aims to remind students of some values that are on the verge of being forgotten, such as love, respect, tolerance, honesty, self-confidence, responsibility, cooperation, and understanding. Students are encouraged to adopt these values in their behavior.

Career Guidance: Knowing oneself (academic success, goals and expectations, strengths and weaknesses, etc.), Discovering Interests and Abilities (Test, questionnaire and inventory results, observation and interview records, etc.), Creating interest in professions and providing information about them are carried out.

Efforts for the Exam: The results of the mock exams, which are held at certain times every semester, are evaluated. Meetings are held with students and parents to share the results. Meetings are held with students to create individual study plans and discuss time management. Information seminars on the examination system are organized. Necessary procedures are completed in cooperation with parents during the school preference period. During the November and April midterm breaks, exam preparation classes continue, and a one-week camp program is implemented for students. One month before the national exams, classes are organized homogeneously, and an intensive program consisting of topic reviews, question-solving, and exams is implemented.

For Parents

Student-Parent Orientation Studies: Students and families experiencing adaptation and adaptation problems to the school are supported individually.

Individual Meetings: As the Psychological Counseling and Guidance Service, we continue to have meetings with our parents every semester. Meetings are held every semester with parents, either to provide feedback on the work done or when deemed necessary by the PDR Unit.

Individual parent meetings are held by appointment. It is important for parents to make appointments by phone, except for emergency situations, in order to allocate the necessary time to parents. The content of the meetings varies according to each student and parent, and confidentiality is essential.

Seminars for Parents: According to the needs of the parents;
