https://doi.org/10.26795/2307-1281-2017-3-15

Abstract

The article presents the results of an empirical research that deals with students’ attitude to the main tendencies of the modern education reform. We have analyzed high school students’ views concerning functions of school as a social institution in modern society and its social niche, school educational resources and teacher professionalism, forms of interaction between family and school and their responsibility for the quality of the education that child gets, variability and differentiation of education, structure and rating of educational institutions. The research has shown that the implementation of the goals declared in the education reform doesn’t correspond with the real psychological and pedagogical conditions. The model of education proposed to the society meets the requirements and challenges of modern world better than the former one; however, the economic situation, which this model is being implemented in, significantly reduces its potential. The growth of extra expenses, paid by family so that their children could get a quality secondary education, is an important sign of problems in the system of school education.
