The 2026-27 academic year at Kyrgyzstan’s vocational schools will run from September 15, 2026, to July 3, 2027.
The Education Ministry said the decision seeks to establish an optimal duration for primary vocational education and ensure a rational distribution of students’ academic workload.

The amended rules also prohibit institutions from diverting students during lessons to work unrelated to the educational process.
