Kazakhstan to launch national digital platform for gifted schoolchildren

Next month, Kazakhstan is set to launch the SMART Daryn national digital platform. Designed to support gifted schoolchildren and teachers, the platform will help young Kazakh citizens prepare for national and international competitions. Users will have access to online lessons and consultations with experienced mentors. Additionally, the platform will host online Olympiads and competitions with a proctoring system to ensure a transparent process. Talented students will also be able to take entrance exams for specialized schools through the platform. Currently, there are over 130 such schools in Kazakhstan.

«Our platform is primarily designed to automate all processes. Previously, we organized various Olympiads and events on different platforms, which made exporting databases and issuing certificates challenging. While we were able to extract data from those platforms, it wasn’t always convenient. Now, everything will be centralized, allowing us to access analytics for any year, including in the future. Moreover, this provides protection against forgery, as each certificate, diploma, and document will have a unique QR code that can be scanned to verify its authenticity,» said Adlet Kartov, SMART Daryn platform developer.
