摘要：Using the mixed methods approach this study examines Turkish Cypriots’ medium of
instruction policies from their settlement to Cyprus to now. Through the use of
document analysis relevant studies have been examined. Findings demonstrate
ideologies and methods of governance of nations that ruled Cyprus influenced the
language policy. Though either Turkish, Greek or English was the official language of
Cyprus, Cypriot Turks have always followed Turkey for their policy of medium of
instruction. The language used in Turkey has always been the orthodox and respected
language for Cypriot Turks. However, the medium of instruction in English brought on
by the British during the colonial period has maintained its importance. Today, this is
not due to a loyalty to Britain, but results from the desire to educate individuals for the
global world.
