On May 28, 2025, the Astana International University
(AIU) signed a memorandum of cooperation with Dyslex Home School — the first
and only school in Kazakhstan and the CIS dedicated to teaching children with
dyslexia using the Ronald Davis method.
The goal of this cooperation is to establish a
strategic partnership in developing inclusive education in Kazakhstan and to
build mutually beneficial relations in educational, research, and practical
fields. Key areas of collaboration include the organization of professional
internships for AIU students, implementation of joint projects, and the
development and delivery of training and retraining programs in the field of
pedagogical sciences.
Raising awareness about neurodiverse conditions such
as dyslexia, dysgraphia, and dyscalculia is more important than ever. These
conditions are not related to intellectual disabilities but require a
specialized educational approach. Children with such features often demonstrate
strong creative thinking skills but face significant challenges in traditional
educational systems.
Dyslex Home School applies the internationally
recognized Ronald Davis method, which helps children struggling with reading,
writing, and math unlock their potential and learn in a comfortable, supportive
environment.
The signed memorandum marks an important step toward
establishing a comprehensive system for training highly qualified educators
capable of working effectively with children who experience learning
difficulties. AIU continues to actively promote inclusive education, expanding
the horizons of pedagogical science and practice.
