The Tajikistan education system is undergoing reforms, with a focus on competency-based education (CBE) implemented since 2015. This student-centered approach aims to improve cognitive skills and 21st-century knowledge. The Ministry of Education and Science of the Republic of Tajikistan oversees curriculum development and implementation. New teaching and learning materials have been developed for subjects like Tajik language and math. USAID is also involved in supporting education programs in Tajikistan, including updating curriculum standards and providing resources like English textbooks. While the Aga Khan Lycée follows the Tajik National State Curriculum, specific details about the Grade 8 Tajik Language and Literature curriculum are not readily available online.
