About Conference

AEO «Nazarbayev Intellectual Schools» is a leading driver of change in secondary education in Kazakhstan. Since 2008, we have developed innovative educational programs, assessment systems, and educational resources for teacher training that are being distributed throughout the education system in Kazakhstan.

Our International Conference is an important event for reformers interested in the future of secondary education in Kazakhstan and Central Asia as a whole. The Conference attracts a global audience of leaders, thinkers, policymakers, and practitioners to discuss and address pressing issues in education.
