- Abstract
The article deals with nomadic schools, one of the school education options available for children of small-numbered indigenous nations resident in the North of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia). Supported by the government of the Republic, for several decades the research institutions of Yakutia have been developing and implementing the project of such schools, performing educating and upbringing functions without separating children from their family environment. The fundamental purpose of such education facilities is to create a basis for preserving languages and cultures of the Northern nations, thereby continuing professional succession in reindeer breeding. The author of the article analyzes functioning of such schools in the areas of concentrated settlement of nomadic and semi-nomadic peoples of the North and Arctic districts of Yakutia
