During his visit to the Kyrgyz Republic, Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation Alexey Overchuk, together with Chairman of the Cabinet of Ministers and Head of the Presidential Administration of the Kyrgyz Republic Adylbek Kasymaliev, visited the construction site of a school being built in Bishkek as part of a Russian-Kyrgyz intergovernmental project to create joint comprehensive schools with instruction in Russian.
The project includes the construction of nine schools. The new schools will be located in all regions of the republic, including the capital. The schools are expected to be completed in three phases, with three schools per year. The school in Bishkek is included in the first phase of construction and is scheduled to open on September 1, 2027.
More than 11,000 Kyrgyz children will have the opportunity to receive education in Russian in the new schools.
Schools will offer a combined curriculum based on the state educational standards of the Russian Federation and the Kyrgyz Republic. Graduates will receive two certificates—one Russian and one Kyrgyz—which will expand their opportunities for further education.
The Deputy Prime Minister emphasized that cooperation in education is one of the key areas of collaboration between the two countries. "The project to build nine Russian-language schools in Kyrgyzstan demonstrates the strength of our strategic partnership and our shared commitment to developing a common educational space based on mutual respect and trust," noted Alexey Overchuk.
According to him, the initiative is also crucial for expanding cooperation throughout the CIS. "The Russian language is the common language of all peoples of the CIS. The opportunity to study school subjects in Russian and speak it fluently is the key to the future for the younger generations," the Deputy Prime Minister stated.
Alexey Overchuk noted that the republic also runs the "Russian Teacher Abroad" humanitarian project and the "Ambassadors of the Russian Language in the World" international volunteer program. Priority is given to training teaching staff. Kyrgyzstan receives active support in recruiting and retraining teachers specializing in teaching Russian language and subjects according to Russian standards.
The number of Russian teachers in the Kyrgyz Republic has increased more than 12-fold since 2019. Over 200 Russian teachers are providing education in the current academic year, demonstrating the strengthening and expansion of cooperation between the countries.
