Tajikistan Grade 11 Curriculum - Russian Language

While specific details about the Grade 11 Russian Language curriculum in Tajikistan are unavailable, general information about the education system and the role of the Russian language can be provided.

Russian Language in Tajikistan:

Russian holds a significant position in Tajikistan. While Tajik is the official language, Russian serves as the language of inter-ethnic communication. A large percentage of the population, approximately 90%, speaks Russian to varying degrees. It's considered a valuable asset for career advancement and access to modern literature and technology. However, proficiency levels appear to be declining.

Education System:

The Tajikistan education system consists of four years of primary school, followed by seven years of secondary school (five years of lower secondary and two years of upper secondary). Education is free and compulsory until the ninth grade. Russian language instruction is provided in schools, alongside Tajik and sometimes English. In some schools, such as the Aga Khan Schools, families can choose the primary language of instruction (English, Russian, or Tajik).

Russian teachers have been sent to Tajikistan to teach various subjects, including Russian language, mathematics, physics, chemistry, and biology. English is also taught in schools as a foreign language.
