About School
«When children are engaged, they don’t get tired and they learn the material better.»— The Harmony Philosophy
About School

Genuine compliance
with international standards.

Harmony STEAM is the first private school in Astana in the mid-price range to hold four international accreditations. Here, STEAM is not an optional extra, but a fully-fledged subject taught from Year 1.

Over the past three years, we have produced a generation of students who are confidently gaining places at the world’s top 100 universities. We do not prepare students simply for ‘entry into any university’, but for a thoughtful, independent life in a rapidly changing world.
