Almaty Schools Reopen with Hybrid Learning Model for 280,000 Students

Almaty's schools are welcoming back students with a mix of online and offline learning, following a new decree. This shift aims to prepare graduating classes for final exams and university admissions while ensuring safety measures are in place.

Over 270 schools in Almaty, serving more than 280,000 students, are reopening with a flexible hybrid schedule. Students in grades 1 to 5 and 9 to 12 will attend classes in person, with first and fifth graders in traditional classes and graduates following a hybrid schedule. Students in grades 6, 7, and 8 will continue online learning, along with those in 10th grade.

Classrooms will be sterilized every two lessons, and students will be seated 1.5 meters apart to maintain safety protocols. The Kazakhstan International School Almaty, an international school in the city, is participating in this hybrid learning model for 7th-grade students and above. Freshmen in colleges and universities will also return to on-campus learning in the second semester, with dormitory occupancy limited to 30 in colleges and 50% in universities.

Almaty's education sector is gradually returning to normality, with a phased reopening that balances learning needs and safety concerns. This hybrid model allows for in-person learning where possible, while online classes continue for younger students and those in lower grades.
