Haileybury Almaty is an independent school in Almaty, Kazakhstan. It was founded in 1939 as an offshoot of Haileybury, an independent school in England.[1] In September 2008 Haileybury Almaty was opened by the Mayor of Almaty and Kazakhstan government education officials. It was the first British public school in Central Asia.[2]

Curriculum[]

Haileybury Almaty teaches pupils from 5–18 years of age and follows the British National Curriculum, which is adapted for local context.[3] Every pupil at Haileybury schools in Kazakhstan is assigned to one of four Houses within the school: Attlee, Bartle Frere, Edmonstone or Kipling.[4]

The school library has a collection of over 10,000 books and DVDs in English, Russian, and Kazakh.[5]
