THE ENGLISH School announced yesterday it had 20 places available for Turkish Cypriot students in Years 2, 3, 4 and 6.
Candidates for places at the school should complete a registration form available from the school office, or which can be downloaded from the school website at www.englishschool.ac.cy by June 23. Late entrance examinations for Years 2, 3 and 4 will be held at the school on June 6. Candidates for Year 6 will be interviewed in early September.
Parents and students interested in finding out more about the school are invited to attend the English language Orientation Evening on June 19 at 6pm, in the School Hall. For non-English speakers, representatives from Turkish Cypriot teaching unions KTOS and KTOEOS will be present to translate.
The English School was a bi-communal school since its foundation in 1900 and, until 1974, had a substantial number of Turkish Cypriot students. The school has repeatedly stated that it will accommodate Turkish Cypriot students as soon as they are able to attend, with the government covering the cost of fees. For Years 2 and 3 the fees are £2,590, for Year 4 they are £2,620 and for Year 6 they are £2,675.

The Cyprus Mail is the only English-language daily newspaper published in Cyprus. It was established in 1945 and today, with its popular and widely-read website, the Cyprus Mail is among the most trusted news sites in Cyprus. The newspaper is not affiliated with any political parties and has always striven to maintain its independence. Over the past 70-plus years, the Cyprus Mail, with a small dedicated team, has covered momentous events in Cyprus’ modern history, chronicling the last gasps of British colonial rule, Cyprus’ truncated independence, the coup and Turkish invasion, and the decades of negotiations to stitch the divided island back together, plus a myriad of scandals, murders, and human interests stories that capture the island and its -people. Observers describe it as politically conservative.
