IMPLEMENTATION OF THE EDUCATION MANAGEMENT MODEL AT THE LEVEL OF THE TERRITORIAL COMMUNITY

Abstract

The article reveals the essence of the state-public management of education at the level of the territorial community. It was revealed that the issue of providing high-quality educational services and increasing the efficiency of educational institutions was especially acute for Ukrainian communities after the start of the implementation of the process of decentralization of power and the implementation of the process of creating territorial communities, since before the reform, the local self-government bodies of communities had a very indirect influence on the educational
process. It was found that in most countries of the world education management is carried out at three levels: centralized education management at the state level; management of education at the level of the region or region; management of education at the level of the territorial community, where local needs and peculiarities are taken into account. In such countries as France, Germany, the USA, and Canada, there is a system of decentralized management of education at the level of territorial communities. In such systems, the state promotes the creation of a network of public organizations that participate in decision-making and implementation of education development strategies at the local level. It was determined that this model of education management at the level of the territorial community allows for more effective use of resources, in particular financial, human and material, as well as to improve the quality of education and ensure its accessibility for all population groups. An analysis of the current Laws of Ukraine: «On Education», «On General Secondary Education», «On Out-of-school Education», «On Pre-school Education», «On Local Self-Government» was carried out, which shows that in Ukraine, almost at the state level, a regulatory framework has been formed for introduction of the model of state-public management of education. The peculiarities of the introduction of various models of education management in the USA and Poland, as well as the best practices of state and public management of education in the Slobozhan and Verbkiv territorial communities of the Dnipropetrovsk region, are considered. It was concluded that the cooperation of public authorities and residents of the territorial community should be ensured in the management of education at the level of the territorial community. Such a management model can promote the development of education at the local level and ensure its accessibility for all population groups
