Legal Support of Effective Management of an Educational Institution in Wartime Conditions

Abstract

The article is devoted to the analysis of the legal provision of effective management of an educational institution of Ukraine in wartime conditions, which consists of the effective application of situational management and elements of anti-crisis management. It was found that from February 24, 2022, the full-scale war of the russian federation against Ukraine exacerbated the problem of legal provision of effective management of an educational institution. An analysis of modern research on the issues of legal regulation and ensuring the effective management of an educational institution in war conditions was carried out (for example, information and analytical reports of the State Education Quality Service of Ukraine and reports on the quality of higher education from the National Agency for Quality Assurance of Higher Education). It was determined that the management of educational institutions in wartime conditions is characterized by: constant observation, detection and localization of problematic phenomena that occur in the educational environment of an educational institution; prevention of crisis situations. It was found that the current legal acts do not sufficiently regulate and ensure the effective management of an educational institution during wartime. An analysis of the existing legal provision regarding the management of an educational institution under martial law was carried out. It was concluded that in Ukraine there are gaps in the legal management of an educational institution in wartime conditions, namely: lack of necessary documents, recommendations, courses for teachers regarding actions in wartime conditions; lack of a strategy for compensating educational expenses of education seekers at the state level, etc.; lack of a permanent mechanism for the simultaneous functioning of various forms of education; lack of recommendations regarding the actions of educational institution managers and teaching staff in the event of destruction or damage to an educational institution; lack of recommendations regarding the targeted actions of educational institutions, employees of educational institutions, education management bodies, who found themselves in temporary occupation; there is no understanding of the possibilities of using autonomy in the development of management of an educational institution with existing legal support.
