Özet: This study examined whether there were differences between private, state and foundation high schools in North Cyprus in the application of contemporary educational approaches and theories. Qualitative approach was used to collect data from three different discussion groups in three different locations. Open coding methods were used to analyse the semi structured discussion recordings. Results regarding the application and practice of contemporary educational approaches and theories in the schools showed some similarities as well as differences. However, constructivist approach was seen to be given greater importance only in the private school while foundations and state schools neither applied nor practiced this approach.
