The newspaper is published by a hobby club supervised by a teacher of Uzbek language Nargiza Ergasheva. Four-page newspaper’s editor-in-chief is the ninth grader Akmal Qurbonov. Designing and printing of the newspaper is made in the school’s informatics room.

“Many students of high classes with philological bias are getting engaged in publication of a school newspaper,” says the headmaster of the school Holisakhon Usmonova. “This is a platform for them where they learn expressing their ideas and demonstrating their creative abilities. In the newspaper we have quite many bold articles that make us, teachers, to think over how to make a teaching process more interesting and involving.”

“Basically we write about the school life: we organize lots of contests, quizzes, evenings of amateur activities, as well as meetings with renowned people and graduates of the school,” says Akmal Qurbonov. “We also publish address of teachers to students. We also share place in the newspaper for the ideas of students and thoughts on different topics. We publish verses and prose written by students. Pages with crosswords made up by members of editorial team are also quite popular with students.”

“We believe our newspaper would prepare future professional journalists,” shares her hopes Holisakhon Usmonova. “Some articles from the Iqtidor have already been republished in the district newspaper Quva Hayoti (Life of Quva).”
