In accordance with the Resolution of the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan dated February 20, 2019 No. PQ-4199 “On measures to establish Presidential schools”, the first Presidential School was established on September 5, 2019 in Tashkent, on December 2, in Namangan, on December 9, in Khiva, and on December 11 in Nukus, Republic of Karakalpakstan. The initial limited establishment of Presidential Schools was due to the need to test a completely new model for managing these institutions. Later, in 2020-2021, Presidential Schools began operating in 14 regions of Uzbekistan. In 2021, all 96 graduates of the first Presidential Schools (in Nukus, Khiva, Namangan, and Tashkent) received invitations to study at prestigious foreign higher education institutions. They have received a total of $28 million in educational grants from foreign universities. In 2022 alone, Khiva Presidential School graduate Hidoyat Rozmetov received admission to King's College in the UK, ranked 37th in the world, the University of Arizona, ranked in the Top 300, and a total of 23 universities in the Top 1,000.
