The Italian Embassy in Tashkent, together with Turin Polytechnic University in Tashkent (TTPU) organized Italian language classes for schoolchildren of one of the Almazar district secondary schools, located near TTPU. Extracurricular activities are held for grades 2, 3, 4 of School No. 196 and involve more than 60 pupils. The curriculum offers the study of the Italian language, culture and literature. 

Today, this is the first school in Uzbekistan where this unique project has been launched. The introduction of the Italian language into primary education will prepare students for higher educational institutions in Italy, which will help in the future to raise a generation of new specialists for various fields of activity in Uzbekistan and Italy. 

Director of School No. 196 Yakubova Dildora expressed gratitude to the Italian Embassy in Tashkent and the Turin Polytechnic University in Tashkent for the help and support in opening Italian language classes.
