On February 15, 2023, the presentation of the updated Kuiken school in Beineu village has taken place, which has been included in the project “Development of the Hub School Potential in Rural Areas” and received the support of Kazakhstan Khalkyna Fund.
“Today there is a gap between rural and urban schools, the decline in the quality of education is especially reflected in rural areas. For a systematic and comprehensive solution of this issue, the Kazakhstan Khalkyna Fund, together with partners, has decided to develop rural hub schools that will become competence centers and will contribute to improving the quality of teaching in other schools. Within the framework of the program “Development of the Hub School Potential in Rural Areas”, we equip and provide methodological support to 17 rural hub schools so that in the future the acquired knowledge and skills can be transferred to other underfilled schools where there are problems with the material and technical base and personnel,” Lazzat Chinkisbayeva, Deputy CEO of Kazakhstan Khalkyna Public Fund, noted.
“I am sure that today, together with our sponsors and partners, we are implementing the project that is really important for the country. More than 40% of Kazakhstani children study in rural areas, and it is important to give them the opportunity to get a quality education and discover their talents. Our project has already affected the lives of 13 thousand children, but this is just the beginning. We plan to cover all regions of the country and hope to have a serious impact on the quality of rural education,” Daniyar Toktarbayev said.
