Hayme Ana Mesleki ve Teknik Anadolu Lisesi (HAMTAL) is a public vocational secondary school for girls. The school is located in the city centre of Ankara, the capital of Turkey. It has been founded this year and received its first students. As a vocational school only for girls, there are departments of Food and Beverage Services, Accounting and Finance, Child Development and Training, Public Relationships and Organisation. The school has good physical facilities, a new building and laboratories for these departments. Child Development and Training Department has a separate building in the garden of the school to be used as a practice kindergarten for students. Due to new arrangements in Turkish Education and University System, vocational schools do not only give vocational training, but they also educate students for higher levels of education in different areas. So the students are also given general secondary education and Science and Maths courses. As it is a new school, at the moment HAMTAL has 20 teachers, 2 directors and 180 students. In a few years the school will have over 1000 students and 60 teachers. The school is rich with social and cultural activities. Being a vocational secondary school at the heart of Ankara, the school will have close relationships with the business life in many sectors. Almost all of the students will have hands on trainings in the business sector and teachers will visit them every week at their areas. School’s facilities and ateliers make it appropriate for courses and studies for young people. Success level of students in STEM courses is very low, so it will be a good opportunity to test the affect of new approaches on these areas. As a school founded this year, the school will have experiences in projects from now on. But the key personnel have that experience to lead the school.
