Abstract
The purpose of the research is to examine the impact of recent educational innovations
on the contemporary secondary education in Kazakhstan. Applying change management as a theoretical
framework of the study [1], we firstly explore the role that innovations play in education and changes and in
the recent reforms brought into the system. Secondly, we explore challenges and opportunities of adapting
innovations in mainstream secondary schools' curriculum, assessment, pedagogy and management to
ensure quality education [2]. And finally, we examine the school capacity in the process of implementing
new knowledge and practice in the context of contemporary changes and innovations [3].
