During the middle of the 1990’s the Kyrgyzstan Education was very much based on the educational structure that of the Soviet-era. Gradually the system started being modified and changed according to the necessities of the citizens.
According to the constitution education in Kyrgyzstan was made compulsory until the 9th grade and the basic education provided at the state institutions were free of cost.
The Ministry of Education, established in 1992 started reconstructing the course of study at the educational institutions of the country. Until 1992 Kyrgyzstan education was provided only in Kyrgyz. After that several foreign languages such as English, German and French were introduced within the curriculum.
