It is impossible to imagine the future of a nation without education. 

One of the fundamental conditions for a good education is the establishment of comfortable and safe conditions. After the decision of President Ilham Aliyev to replace emergency schools with modular schools in 2017-2018, the introduction of this type of schools in the country became relevant.

What distinguishes modular schools from traditional schools is the lower cost of these schools. So, for the budget spent on the construction of one traditional school, it is possible to install 10 modular schools.

During the repair and reconstruction of schools in emergency condition, the establishment of modular schools in the same areas in order to prevent students from being distracted from education, easy transportation, application and convenient volume reduction in accordance with the number of days makes modular schools more affordable.

This practice, widely used in developed areas such as Europe and America, is also considered more appropriate in our country, mainly for areas with difficult terrain and accidents, due to its greater flexibility, optimality and quality. Also, in remote, mountainous areas with a small population and far from the regional center, it is more efficient to build schools of this type in accordance with the number of shagirds, and not the introduction of traditional school construction.

During the construction of such schools, specially selected internal and external materials do not contain any harmful substances for human health, are more resistant to fire, water permeability, moisture, decay, heat and cold. Construction work also requires small financial resources compared to capital construction.
