Emphasizing that education is the unshakeable foundation of the country's great development, the Head of State declared that the "Last Bell" ceremony holds a special place in social life and the formation of the new generation.
The celebrations organized in all corners of the country, along with the cities of Ashgabat and Arkadag, demonstrate to the entire world the wide opportunities created by the state for Turkmen youth to receive modern education and for teachers to work creatively.

The State is only a state with its people!".
The congratulatory message particularly emphasizes the immense role of teachers in the ongoing work to fundamentally reform the national education system and bring it in line with world standards. Currently, modern educational institutions equipped with the latest technologies and interactive systems are being built and put into operation in the cities and villages of the country. These reforms implemented by the state create conditions for the successful realization of national programs and strategies, resulting in the upbringing of highly responsible, patriotic, and broad-minded youth.
