The new school building, with a capacity of 275 students, is now operational, has modern classrooms, a library, a canteen, and the necessary infrastructure and equipment.
«An educated population is the greatest asset of our state. Today, the world is governed not by force, but by knowledge. To create all the conditions for providing our citizens with a decent education and a good upbringing, we also keep pace with global trends and are on the path to sustainable development of the education sector.
One of the priority areas of the policy pursued by the President of the Kyrgyz Republic is improving the quality of education and creating the necessary conditions. Today, the state is paying more attention to children, and many new modern schools are being built and put into operation,» said Adylbek Kasymaliyev, adding that in 2025 alone, 16 new school buildings were put into operation in Osh region.
«Today, the budget allows for wage increases for teachers, doctors, and cultural workers. This is the second time in recent years that education workers’ salaries have been increased. The new schools and salary reforms should be combined with high-quality education,» Adylbek Kasymaliev concluded.
