Primary Education
Schooling is mandatory in Kazakhstan and this reflects in a
national literacy rate of over 99%. The 5 grades of primary
school begin at age 6. Two groups of children attend morning
and afternoon shifts respectively per school. The ministry of
education prescribes the curriculum, and this applies to both
private and public schools.
Middle Education
Students continue with their education program at lower
secondary school for 4 years through to grade 9. A general
academic curriculum includes Russian or Kazach depending on
location, plus biology, chemistry, history, mathematics, physics,
and a foreign language.

Secondary Education
There are three options for the concluding 3 years at secondary
school. These include general education at a lyceum or
gymnasium, vocational education at a professional lyceum or
vocational school, and professional education at a professional
college. Education costs continue to be largely funded by the
state.
Vocational Education
An ad-hoc training company is being established to oversee the
development of vocational training in Kazakhstan through an
unfolding network of institutions to complement current
structures. It is intended that this become a kingpin in the
nation’s emerging industrialization program
