Why this quality rating
Uzbekistan's public system is improving, especially in Tashkent, but it remains a local-language-first school path rather than an obvious default for internationally mobile families.
Why the expat-access rating looks like this
Resident foreign families may be able to enroll, but Uzbek- and Russian-medium instruction make the public route a hard fit unless the family is planning deeper local integration.
📋 Homeschooling
Legal with school supervisionUzbekistan allows individual learning at home for children with documented reasons (health, distance). Families must coordinate with a local school for assessments. Enforcement is limited for expats. Growing digital nomad presence in Tashkent.

About Chilanzar
Chilanzar is the largest district of Tashkent, Uzbekistan, with about 261,000 residents, lying in the southwestern part of the capital. It was developed in the 1960s as a planned Soviet residential district of prefabricated apartment blocks following the 1966 earthquake and remains overwhelmingly residential, with three Tashkent Metro stations along the Chilonzor line connecting directly to the city centre in roughly 15 to 20 minutes. The economy is dominated by services and government employment tied to the broader capital, with a notable cluster of medical and educational institutions. The climate is continental, with very hot, dry summers and cold winters. Uzbek and Russian are widely spoken, English is limited outside younger professionals, and apartment rents remain modest.
