According to information from the press service of the mayor's office, this opening is part of an initiative to relieve overcrowded educational institutions, implemented in accordance with the directive of President Sadyr Japarov and with the support of the Bishkek mayor's office.
The organization of classrooms on the ground floors of residential buildings will provide access to education for children close to their homes and reduce the burden on neighboring schools until new educational institutions and kindergartens are constructed.
The first branch opened on Malikova Street, where necessary conditions have been created for students in grades 5–9. The premises provided by the State Mortgage Company can accommodate up to 1,000 students, with classes held in two shifts.
In addition to core subjects, the branch offers clubs for chess, toguz korgool, handicrafts, drawing, and decorative arts.
Bishkek Mayor Aibek Junushaliev noted that such a format could serve as a good example for other districts of the city. He also instructed to develop methodological recommendations for the further dissemination of this practice.
The main school No. 40 is located just 200 meters from the new branch at 7 Kakhovskaya Street.
