The Bamyan Department of Education reports that in cooperation with a local organization, it has provided free English language and computer courses for more than 1,000 male and female students.

The head of this department said that efforts are also underway to provide free education opportunities for other children.

Enayatullah, Sahar, head of the Bamyan Department of Education, said: "For students facing economic difficulties, we have also tried to negotiate with private schools to allow them to study either at a discount or for free."

Some of these children have called on the Bamyan Department of Education to continue such educational programs.

Samira, a student, said: "I am very happy that this program has started in our school. We would be pleased if other similar programs were also launched."

Ehsan, another student, said, "I am very happy to learn computers and English here, and it is also free, so I come here every day."

Alina, another student, said: "This program benefits us in learning English, and since the economic situation is not good, we can learn English for free next to our school."

Currently, more than 150,000 students in Bamyan are engaged in education; however, some of these students cannot afford the fees at private educational centers due to poor economic conditions and poverty.
