Justification of the gap between the current state and the target level Outdated infrastructure: Most schools have morally and physically outdated equipment and do not meet modern NUS requirements, which limits the possibilities for implementing new educational methods. Low level of digital literacy: Teachers and students often do not have sufficient skills and resources to effectively use digital technologies in teaching. Lack of modern educational materials and resources: Many schools lack interactive and inclusive educational materials, which complicates the development of key competencies. Unequal access to quality education: Especially in rural areas, the lack of innovative solutions and resources leads to significant educational inequality. Limited opportunities for professional development of teachers: The lack of systematic and accessible advanced training programs using modern methods hinders qualitative changes in education. Thus, the project aims to overcome these key problems through infrastructure modernization, implementation of digital technologies, support for teachers and increased community participation, which will ensure the transformation of the educational process in accordance with the requirements of the National School of Higher Education.
