Minister of Science and Education Emin Amrullayev briefed Leyla Aliyeva on the school's history, the conditions created there, and the educational opportunities it offers. He noted that the old school building was demolished in January 2024, and construction of the new building began on the same site. The new school is designed to accommodate 528 students. It provides all the necessary modern teaching facilities in line with contemporary standards.
