Invento The Uzbek International School closes the academic year with a clearly formed educational model, its first graduates and measurable student outcomes. Over this period the school strengthened academic quality, expanded international ties and recorded growing trust from families and partners.
Today Invento is an international school with the full International Baccalaureate (IB) continuum, teaching children from early years through graduating classes and building a continuous development path for every student.
What changed for children
The main change this year is a measurable result. Invento students more often step beyond the school space and feel confident in an international academic environment.
During the year students represented Invento at intellectual and scientific venues in Europe and Asia. They became finalists of the Hippo English Olympiad in Italy, took part in STEAM AHEAD competitions in China and Uzbekistan, and won prizes at the VANDA international science olympiad. Senior students took part in Model United Nations in Tashkent and will compete in the international round in Baku, where they will demonstrate argumentation, public speaking and teamwork in English.
Sport and the arts developed just as actively. Invento’s younger students took every prize place in their age category at the Uzbekistan Wushu Cup. They also posted strong results at the Open Dance Festival, in tennis competitions and at chess tournaments — a reflection of the school’s systematic work with children’s talents, whatever direction they choose.
The key event of the year will be Invento’s first graduation. The graduating class’s final academic results confirmed a high level of Diploma Programme preparation and the school’s systematic work with students on professional readiness for their chosen undergraduate path.
Invento graduates are preparing for universities not only in Uzbekistan, but in Austria, the Czech Republic, Belgium, the UAE, the USA, Turkey, Japan, Germany and Italy. The school accompanies them at every stage — from choosing a country and university to preparing recommendations and academic documents, and creating opportunities to take part in olympiads and events that develop their interests and raise their chances of grants at universities worldwide. The IB diploma is accepted by prestigious universities in Uzbekistan and abroad and is treated as a priority academic standard, substantially widening graduates’ choice of higher-education programmes.
In parallel the school continues to work with younger children, building individual development paths. One such case is second-grader Salih, who shows advanced academic development. His progress is the result of early identification of potential and personal support.
An environment where children stay and grow
A rich life beyond lessons remains an important part of Invento’s educational model. The After School Activities programme expanded significantly over the year, and student involvement rose to 85 percent. For children this became a continuation of the school day, not a formal add-on to lessons. Sports sections, studios, music, chess clubs and academic circles form an environment where a child stays at school out of interest, not necessity.
What became more stable
The school’s stability this year rested first of all on the team and processes. Invento closes the year with a staff of more than 300, including international teachers from 15 countries. The school has a system for onboarding new colleagues, regular professional development and shared teaching standards.
Teachers’ professional growth became a priority. Faculty trained at national and international institutes, and the school itself hosted an IB World School Workshop, bringing together educators from dozens of institutions across Eurasia. Invento’s leadership also took a direct part in the IB Global Conference in The Hague, where global challenges and the future of international education were discussed.
On the academic side a progress-monitoring system was introduced for all middle- and senior-school students. That made it possible to move from a reactive approach to a proactive one: individual plans are formed for each student, the At-Risk support programme operates, and extra lessons and evening academic sessions are held for graduates. The result has been a noticeable drop in academic risk and more stable student outcomes.
The school’s international direction
The school strengthened its IB World School status and expanded its partnership network. Invento representatives took part in the ISS Educational Expo in Singapore, becoming the only school from Uzbekistan and the Central Asian region at the event. Memoranda were signed with Nazarbayev Intellectual School and Niagara College. For students this means not abstract “internationalism”, but concrete academic and career routes, access to world practice and a place in the global education community.
Improving indicators
Invento’s growth this year is measurable. The school admitted 185 new students, including 62 international students, and the school community brought together children from 35 countries. About 90 percent of students have been at the school for more than a year, reflecting parents’ trust and the stability of the educational environment.
During the year demand for places at Invento exceeded available seats. The school admits within fixed quotas and waiting lists in order to keep class size, academic quality and the chance of individual work with students. That approach lets the school grow without compromise and hold the standards on which Invento’s model is built.
The school’s infrastructure continued to develop. In 2025 a Performance Arts department was opened, and spaces for art and creative work were expanded. In parallel, work with the parent community grew — through open lessons, seminars and large school events that became a gathering point for the whole family.
The direction for next year
Invento enters the next academic year with clearly stated priorities. The focus is Graduate Destination and broader preparation of students for global universities, further strengthening of the teaching team and the long-term sustainability of the educational model. The school also plans to develop an alumni community, international summer programmes and individual learning paths.
Invento The Uzbek International School closes the year as a formed international school with a clear strategy and confirmed results. It is a system in which academic achievement, personal development and international opportunity are joined in one sustainable model.
The next stage is a logical continuation of this path. Development, high standards and a focus on long-term goals.
“This year became a point of confirmation for Invento. We saw how a built system delivers results — in academic success, in students’ maturity, in parents’ trust. For us it is important to grow without losing quality and to keep developing the school as a sustainable international platform, oriented toward a sustainable future and children’s real outcomes,” says Zulfiya Obidova, General Director of Invento The Uzbek International School.
