Ход реализации Национального проекта «Комфортная школа» рассмотрели на совещании в Правительстве под председательством первого заместителя Премьер-Министра Романа Скляра сообщает официальный сайт Правительства РК.
On the instructions of the Head of State, the country is implementing the National Project ‘Comfortable School’, within the framework of which it is planned to build 369 new-format schools for 740,000 pupils by 2026. As of today, active work on 217 schools is underway.
Particular attention is paid to the functionality and safety of the educational environment during the implementation of the national project. Separate blocks for primary and high school students are envisaged. Among the requirements are increasing safety measures by introducing modern technical means, creating a barrier-free environment for children with special educational needs and providing schools with modern subject classrooms.
When constructing schools, priority is given to domestic manufacturers. The share of Kazakhstan-made materials in the national project averages 70 per cent, including construction materials up to 90 per cent. Furniture products - exclusively domestic production.
As reported by Chairman of the Board of Samruk-Kazyna Construction JSC Maulen Aimanbetov, commissioning of the first facilities will be completed earlier than scheduled. Thus, 21 comfortable schools will be opened in August, before the beginning of the academic year. Further, according to plans, 18 schools will be opened in September, 58 more in October and 112 schools by the end of the year.
In addition, 85 schools are being built in the country at the expense of various sources, of which 8 schools have already been put into operation and over 30 schools are planned to be built before the beginning of the new academic year.
Organisational issues related to the implementation of the 2nd stage of the National Project were also discussed. In particular, it was instructed to proceed as soon as possible to hold tenders to identify contractors for the construction of 152 comfortable schools to be commissioned by the end of 2025.
During the meeting, Roman Sklyar instructed the authorised state bodies and organisations to ensure maximum involvement of domestic manufacturers, strict control over the quality of construction and compliance with the established commissioning plans.
