Today, with half of the population of Mongolia being young people under the age of 35, education has steadily evolved with the government now actively supporting the development of the country’s students and youth.
Children from the age of two attend one of the 1416 kindergartens throughout Mongolia, the first having been established in 1930, before moving on to pre-school classes until they reach the age of eight. They then begin ten years of schooling, eight of which are compulsory, through the Primary, Middle and Senior stages of the education system which is taught at the 74 primary schools, 116 secondary schools and 608 high schools throughout Mongolia.
Whilst attending primary school for four years, children develop a basic understanding of the Mongolian language which, in written form, uses the Russian Cyrillic alphabet, the establishment having moved away from the classical Mongolian Uigur script in 1941
