There are also 312 mini-centers, where almost 5,000 children study. Preschool education coverage for children aged 2-6 is 92.4%.        Over the past 2 years, significant steps have been taken to increase enrollment: new kindergartens and groups for 1,717 places have been opened. This work continues.The focus is on the quality of education in schools and the creation of a comfortable, safe environment.7 new schools with 4,860 places have been built and put into operation in Kostanay region. The schools fully comply with modern standards and requirements, 5 of them were opened as part of the Keleshek Mektepteri National Project.These are modern schools with innovative equipment in the spirit of global trends, thoughtful equipment and design. Each of them is equipped with subject rooms and laboratories, they create the best conditions for the development of our students' talents and research ideas.        4 more schools will be put into operation by the end of the year.In order to improve the quality of education, the republican project "Auyl mektebi – sapa alany" is being implemented, covering 21 basic and 63 attached rural schools. Within its framework, from 2022 to 2024, with the support of the Public Foundation "Kazakhstan Khalkyna", 12 schools received modern equipment worth 3 billion tenge. Each of them has 25 specialized classrooms, including STEM labs, robotics and natural sciences classrooms, renovated libraries, art classrooms, and TV studios. This year, the modernization will affect 7 more schools.In parallel, the material and technical base of the attached schools was updated: 106 classrooms were repaired for the amount of 1.3 billion tenge. This opens up completely new opportunities for rural schoolchildren, fulfilling the task set by the Head of State to reduce the gap between urban and rural areas.        Such investments in the future are yielding results. First of all, these are victories in intellectual competitions.        In the 2024-2025 academic year, our students won 9 prizes at international Olympiads and competitions, 26 at the Republican Olympiad for Rural Schools (3rd team place) and 23 medals at the Republican Olympiad in subjects.        5 schools of the region entered the TOP 100 of Kazakhstan: lyceum "Bilim-Innovation", lyceum school No. 2 in Kostanay, gymnasium school No. 10 inRudny, specialized boarding school named after I. Altynsarin, lyceum school of information technology "Ozat".There were 16 prizes in the scientific project competition, and 4 medals in international scientific competitions.        The success of our children is the result not only of high—quality education, but also of systematic educational work.        So, starting from the new school year, educational work will be carried out according to the "Adal Azamat" program. Working with parents plays an important role in the formation of the school-family-society triad: there are 399 Educational Support Centers.A lot is being done in the field of education to support families. One of the important tasks is to provide children with high-quality hot meals. It should be recalled that on the instructions of President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev, all primary school students, which currently number 45,019 in the region, should be provided with free meals.Also, 7,222 pupils of grades 5-11 are provided with hot meals from the Universal Education Fund.  5.2 billion tenge has been allocated from the regional budget for these purposes.To ensure the clarity and transparency of the organization of free and discounted meals, 123 schools have a Social Wallet system, and 305 schools with fewer than 700 students have a Business Wallet service.More than 3.5 thousand schoolchildren will be covered by inclusive support in secondary schools in the region in the new academic year.The network of inclusion support rooms and psychological and pedagogical correction rooms is systematically expanding, currently there are 41 of them. Before the start of the new school year, new inclusion support rooms were opened at secondary school No. 1 and kindergarten No. 2 in Rudny. The next step is to open a KPI in Sarykolsky, Mendykarinsky, and Naurzumsky districts, which will allow them to receive high-quality correctional support on the ground in their regions. The Year of Working Professions has given a special impetus to the introduction of the ideology of "Man of Work".  An important stage in its formation is technical and vocational education. Today, 21,694 students study at 33 colleges, 87% of them are state—commissioned. During the period of large-scale development of the industrial cluster, specialists are trained according to the advanced staffing model.In recent years, 21 new specialties have been opened for factories and investment projects under construction, and 14 more are at the licensing stage.Special attention is paid to targeted training commissioned by enterprises: in three years, the number of students has almost doubled (from 687 to 1,237).Today, cooperation agreements have been signed with 853 enterprises, including such leading companies as KamLitKZ LLP, SaryarkaAvtoProm LLP, Agromashholding KZ JSC, Bayan Sulu JSC, SSGPO JSC, ERG Service LLP, Kostanay Minerals JSC and many others. The number of mentor companies has grown to 250.Dual education is developing — it covers over 7 thousand students. The employment rate of graduates is 91%, which is 10% higher than the national level.Students' achievements confirm the effectiveness of the system. So, last academic year, 8 students entered the TOP 100 of the country, which is one of the best indicators by region, 5 won medals at the national level. At the regional level, the list of competencies has been expanded to 60 areas.Among the winners of this year's international championship is Gleb Saulenko, who won a medallion for professionalism at EuroSkills 2025 in Denmark. Thus, in the field of education, the region is constantly working on the development of human capital, which focuses on the student and the formation of his personality as a true citizen of our Homeland.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/kostanay/press/news/details/1080686?lang=kk
