CHARACTERISTIC FEATURES OF CONTEMPORARY MANAGEMENT OF RUSSIAN EDUCATION

Abstract

In the article proposed to the reader, it is noted that the management of education in the country is carried out on the basis of the Law «On Education in the Russian Federation». The last version of it, dated July 29, 2017, clearly defines the principles on which the entire management system should be built. In Article 89 of this Law, it is emphasized that «the management of the education system is built on the principles of democracy, …information openness, …public opinion accounting and has a state-social character». However, the legislative consolidation and imputed primarily to the federal executive authorities, which determine the state policy and regulatory and legal regulation in the field of education, the organization of a broad involvement of the scientific and educational community to discuss the main directions of the development of education in the country is clearly ignored. The main characteristic feature of the modern management of Russian education was an unrestrained bureaucracy. In the system of management of Russian education, to this day there have been many contradictions. Central among them is the isolation of managers from the scientific and pedagogical community of the country. Due to these circumstances, the reform of Russian education over a quarter of a century is carried out exclusively from the top, with little regard for public opinion and the sentiments of scientific and pedagogical workers.
