Fifteen Syrian students received their certificates at a graduation ceremony in Aleppo, northern Syria, organized for students who successfully completed the open high school examinations administered by Türkiye’s Ministry of National Education.
Türkiye’s Consul General in Aleppo, Hakan Cengiz, and an official representing Türkiye’s Ministry of National Education attended the ceremony on Sunday. Following the speeches, graduation certificates were presented to the students who passed the examinations.
Education to continue for students returning to Syria
Mustafa Onur, Türkiye’s Education Attaché in Aleppo, said that open education programs at middle and high school levels would continue so that students returning to Syria could pursue their education.
Onur said they would continue offering these programs in Aleppo to help students returning from Türkiye to Syria continue their education. He said they had always supported the students’ educational journeys and noted that open education opportunities were particularly important for students returning to Syria.
Returns to Syria continue
Thousands of Syrians returned to their country from Türkiye and other countries after the fall of the Bashar al-Assad administration. The Assad family’s rule in Syria ended when Damascus came under the control of opposition groups on December 8, 2024.
