Introduction
The world of the 21st century is the world of production and advancement of science and knowledge, population growth, globalization, and so on. Globalization sees the world as a single place where local communities, especially individuals, are forced to accept their existence as part of a larger whole. One of the most important and serious issues related to the process of globalization is the issue of survival or continuity of identities. Experts believe that the process of globalization leads to the establishment and domination of a culture over the universe and indigenous cultures are forgotten; But the realized reality we are witnessing shows that the process of globalization does not mean the forgetting of indigenous, ethnic, linguistic and regional cultures; And even globalization has strengthened the emergence of frameworks of non-national collective identities, the most important of which are ethnic and linguistic identities.
Education, learning and upbringing in any cultured society are closely related and reciprocal. There are different approaches to culture, each approach offering specific patterns of education. Educational systems are based on a set of interactions between parents, teachers, students and community members. These interactions are influenced by many factors, including social and cultural factors such as language and linguistic values. Language is one of the most important variables that affects the learning process. The language through which we teach students plays a vital role in their cognitive, emotional, and moral development as students communicate, perform assignments, are evaluated, present, and read through language.
Language is part of one's identity and culture, and the local language should reinforce both through school. Local languages improve teaching and learning and have significant benefits for the community. Using the local language in the education system builds self-respect and pride in the local culture. By strengthening the importance of local languages, interest in local knowledge and culture is strengthened.
Today, many people around the world speak more than one language, which is due to the various cultural and social issues and needs of today's society. Most nations of the world are multilingual. In fact, it is difficult to find a nation that is monolingual. In bilingual areas, the curriculum presented to students in the form of learning assignments is meaningful to the teacher, while in some cases it is not comprehensible to bilingual students, causing the flow of feedback to become one-way and the learning-learning process to be effective. Lose yourself. Students who do not speak their native language face many oppositions, ideologies, and stereotypes. They are confronted with changing realities in their communities that are only partial, as well as pervasive messages on television, news, and online media. These students are in a constant state of transition. They are constantly on the move, constantly interacting with different (sometimes competing) cultures and languages. Therefore, the main question in this research is:
What do bilingual students expect from the official school curriculum?
Sub-questions:
• What are the goals of bilingual students expecting to learn from the formal school curriculum?
• What content do bilingual students expect to learn from the formal school curriculum?
• What methods do bilingual students expect to receive from the formal school curriculum?
• What kind of assessment do bilingual students expect from the formal school curriculum?

The sample size in this study was determined using the data saturation criterion, which means that the selection of samples continued until the researcher did not receive new data and the data was saturated. Finally, 18 bilingual students participated in this study.

Discussion
Seeing schools that have many things in common, such as the number of students, educational resources and facilities, and the economic status of students, but are very different in terms of student learning and academic achievement, makes us think that the reason What could this be? Bilingualism is always one of the issues that affect the process of education and learning of people in their community and is a phenomenon that occurs in all parts of the world. This study was conducted to identify the expectations of bilingual students from the formal curriculum and it can be claimed that this study has shown the most important expectations of bilingual students from the formal curriculum. The results showed that bilingual students believe that the main mission of the educational system is to develop a curriculum that responds to the cultural and linguistic characteristics of bilingual students because neglecting the culture and language of the minority creates many educational problems and social challenges.
