The government plans to allocate more than 1.2 billion tenge from the Special State Fund for the construction of a school at Manadyr Station in the Zhanaarka District of the Ulytau Region.
According to the press service of the department, the existing school in this area is the only educational institution. And it has long been outdated.
"The building was constructed in 1981, with an extension added in the 2000s. Today, the school is significantly overcrowded: with a designed capacity of 60 places, 123 students are currently enrolled. The school lacks laboratory rooms for chemistry, biology, physics and geography, a sports hall, a workshop, and rooms for practical classes," the statement reads.
Construction is planned to begin in March 2025. It is expected that the project will increase the number of student places and create comfortable conditions for children's education.
To recap, in April last year it was reported that the construction of 69 educational institutions would be completed using money from corrupt officials. Part of these funds were intended to be allocated for the construction of schools in the Turkistan Region.
In May of the same year, it became known that in Atyrau, 6 billion tenge seized from corrupt officials was planned to be used to finance the construction of two schools.
In October of this year, it was reported that funds from the Special Fund were planned to be allocated for the construction of a sports complex in the village of Zerenda, Akmola Region, and a music school in the village of Temirlan, Turkistan Region.
At the same time, Kazakhstan began implementing social projects using the 12 billion tenge returned to the state. One such project is the construction of a centre for modern culture in Almaty.
Furthermore, at the beginning of November, an additional 525 billion tenge was returned to state revenue, which is to be allocated for the construction of a sports complex for gifted children with 120 places in Arkalyk, a rehabilitation centre for children with musculoskeletal disorders in Astana, and a training centre for people with special needs with 400 places in Almaty.
Later, it was reported that the government plans to allocate 7.8 billion tenge from the Special State Fund for the construction of a kindergarten for children with special needs in Aktobe.
