What is "Rural School powered by NIS"?
Our goal is to cover all of 164 regions of the country by 2026 and we are opened for cooperation with strategic partners and sponsors. In its work, the Foundation for Sustainable Development of Education adheres to the principles of consistency and clarity.
With the support of the "Kazakhstan Khalkyna" Fund, the FSDE will be able to scale the Project from 5 to 22 schools and implement transformations in new areas of the country. These are 17 hub educational institutions that will be improved according to the Fund’s strategic plan.
*The Program is implemented with the support of the Ministry of Education of the Republic of Kazakhstan and Y.Altynsarin National Academy of Education.
We are a Non-Profit Project to reduce the gap in the quality of education between the city and the rural which includes two areas: improving the skills of teachers and updating the material base of rural schools.
Improving the quality of rural education contributes to slowing down the outflow of human capital from rural areas and provides a basis for sustainable development throughout the country.
