All teachers in Kyrgyzstan will be provided with laptops until June. Deputy Head of the Cabinet of Ministers of Kyrgyzstan Edil Baisalov said at a board meeting in Talas region.

«We visited China, where we got acquainted with activities of a company engaged in the production of laptops. We will try to purchase directly from there,» he explained.

Edil Baisalov noted that each teacher would have to devote 1-2 hours a day to work with a laptop for self-development and learning.

«The teacher must be smarter than the student, this is a requirement. In addition, teachers will undergo advanced training every five years. That is why we are behind in education sphere. There is a plan for the next five years. God willing, every schoolchild will also have a laptop within five years, and many changes will occur in the field of education,» the official said.
