Farabi International Schools opened in Atyrau and Shymkent.

В Атырау и Шымкенте открылись Farabi International Schools

On September 1, 2025, new private Farabi International Schools opened their doors in Atyrau and Shymkent. These are the first steps toward creating a network of modern educational institutions focused on developing children in every aspect—from academic knowledge to personal and creative growth.

Equal access to education

BI Education has set a goal to make high-quality private education accessible not only in Astana and Almaty but also in the regions. "We plan to open a Farabi School in every regional center of Kazakhstan," noted the founder of BI Group, Aidyn Rakhimbayev.

A modern approach to learning

Farabi schools build the educational process on the principles of holistic development. Here, attention is paid not only to high academic standards but also to forming critical thinking, creativity, leadership qualities, and the ability to work in a team.

Students receive:

  • In-depth multilingual education (Kazakh, Russian, English + a second foreign language of choice—French, German, or Chinese).
  • International programs: AP courses, Singapore mathematics, advanced sciences,
  • Specialized education starting from the 7th grade (physics-mathematics, chemistry-biology, and humanities tracks).

Broad opportunities for development

Farabi International Schools create conditions where a child can try themselves in different spheres:

  • STEM directions: robotics, programming, and engineering projects.
  • Creativity: art and design studios, theater, music, and national instruments.
  • Sports and health: yoga, chess, team games, and additional sections.
  • Social projects and volunteering.

Looking to the future

Special attention is paid to career guidance: students try out different directions from an early age, receive support from mentors, and participate in projects that help them decide on their future profession. Such an approach allows us to prepare not just graduates, but young people ready for life and studies at world-class universities.

The opening of schools in Atyrau and Shymkent gives families in these regions access to a new level of private education. We are creating an environment where every child has the opportunity to unlock their potential, find their passion, and feel confident about the future.
