This summer the RCS Academy brought together 60 participants and 10 Robert College teachers and co-curricular advisors. With 13 different half day courses, RCS Academy was accessed by students remotely from 11 different cities in Turkey.
The RCS Academy aimed to create learning opportunities for participants and offer fun and exciting courses that would be new and different from what the participants were offered during the school year. The half day programs were conducted in English, with a variety of courses in the field of technology, math, humanities, literature and music.
