The geopolitical security of Kazakhstan is the most important issue discussed in the article. It is described what main factors influence this. In particular, geographic, border, political and resource factors that play an important role in the geopolitical situation, stability and security of the country were analyzed. Among them, we emphasized the importance of the integrity of the border. By focusing on the concept of national security and defining it, we emphasized that it plays a large role in the integrity of the country. In addition, we wrote that the two main conditions affecting our national security, the geopolitical security of Kazakhstan and its stability, are the two giant states with which we border: the Russian Federation and the People's Republic of China. We analyzed the risk and influencing factors of these two conditions. First of all, we assessed the geopolitical position of the country. We examined the process of stabilizing geopolitical security from the point of view of Sinophobia and Russophobia. We focused on the causes of Russophobia and Sinophobia in our country, the areas of distribution and the level of influence. The foreign policy and position of any country changes depending on where it is located. That is, the situation in the border state will definitely affect this. At the same time, we are writing an example of the impact of conflicts in Central Asia on the geopolitical security and stability of Kazakhstan. In addition, we have focused on several methods that can be used to improve the methodology of teaching the geopolitical security of Kazakhstan in school geography, in particular - in the 10th and 11th grades. Among them, we considered problem-based learning and the method of learning through discussion as a method that is effective in disclosing geopolitical topics. And we also noted that the effectiveness of the cartographic method can be used in this chapter. The main purpose of the article is to consider the geopolitical security of Kazakhstan in the context of the history and influence of Sinophobia and Russophobia in the geopolitics section of the school curriculum. In addition, it is necessary to improve the teaching methods of the department of geopolitics in the school curriculum.
