In the West Kazakhstan Region, a significant push towards improving educational infrastructure is underway. This effort is part of a larger nationwide program aimed at modernizing schools and alleviating pressure on existing institutions.
The regional leader, Nariman Turegaliyev, has instructed contracting organizations to ensure timely completion of the construction of new school buildings. This includes the construction of a new building at Ural City Secondary School No. 8, as well as modern schools for 600 and 1200 students in the villages of Baykonys and Dostyk in Bayterek District.
These new educational institutions are designed to meet modern standards and provide comfortable conditions for students and teachers. The regional akim emphasized the importance of creating such environments, stating that each school should be a centre of knowledge, creativity, and education.
Turegaliyev is currently on a working trip, inspecting social projects in the field of education. He has stressed the importance of adhering to the schedule and maintaining high-quality work in the construction of new schools. The President, Kassym-Jomart Kemelevich Tokayev, particularly emphasizes the importance of these factors in the construction of new schools.
This large-scale program in the West Kazakhstan Region is part of the broader "Future Schools" initiative, aimed at modernizing and expanding school infrastructure across Kazakhstan. The initiative, which includes the construction of 217 new schools, is a significant step towards improving education in the country, including rural areas.
Kazakhstan is also strengthening its educational ties with the United States, emphasizing the adoption of international standards and practices in local universities. This includes collaborations with universities like Harvard, Stanford, and MIT to enhance higher education in Kazakhstan.
While there is no specific information available about Turegaliyev's visit or detailed information about the "Future Schools" initiative in the context of the West Kazakhstan Region, these developments are significant for the country's educational development. The regional akim has stressed that the construction issue should be kept under constant control to ensure the timely and successful completion of these important projects.
