Целью данной статьи является выявление путей сокращения неравенства в образовании между сельским и городским населением Алматинской области. Выдвинута гипотеза о том, что решение проблемы неравенства в образовании на селе может быть решено путем применения кластерного механизма в рамках контролируемой урбанизации через создание центров развития образования на базе общеобразовательных школ. Методология исследования включает метод социальной статистики, методы анализа научной литературы, методы факторного, кластерного анализа и математико-статистические методы. В разделе «результаты и обсуждения» изложен проведенный анализ динамики охвата образованием выпускников сельских и городских школ Алматинской области, выявивший катастрофический разрыв, угрожающий перспективам устойчивого развития региона. Также представлены результаты кластерного анализа девяти районов Алматинской области на предмет возможностей для развития образования по критериям существующего материальнотехнического оснащения школ, их уровня цифровизации, достаточности финансирования из местного бюджета и развитости сопутствующей социально-значимой инфраструктуры. По данным проведенного анализа, была предложена концепция нивелирования неравенства в образовании на основе выделения потенциальных локаций для создания центров развития образования в сельской местности. Данное исследование в перспективе может быть использовано для дальнейшего развертывания региональных программ сокращения неравенства в образовании в сельской местности.

This article aims to identify ways to reduce the inequality in education between the rural and urban populations of the Almaty region. The hypothesis is put forward that the solution to the problem of inequality in education in rural areas can be solved by applying a clustering mechanism within the framework of controlled urbanization through the creation of educational development centers based on secondary schools. The research methodology includes the methods of social statistics, methods of analysis of scientific literature, methods of factor analysis, cluster analysis, and mathematical and statistical methods. The section “results and discussions” presents the analysis of the dynamics of educational coverage of graduates of rural and urban schools of the Almaty region, which revealed a catastrophic gap that threatens the region’s sustainable development prospects. The results of a cluster analysis of nine districts of the Almaty region for opportunities for the development of education according to the criteria of the existing material and technical equipment of schools, their level of digitalization, the sufficiency of funding from the local budget, and the development of the accompanying socially significant infrastructure are also presented. According to the analysis, the concept of leveling inequality in education was proposed based on identifying potential locations for creating centers for the development of education in rural areas. In the future, this study can be used for further deployment of regional programs to reduce inequality in education in rural areas.
