Journal Title: Проблеми економіки - Year 2015, Vol 2015, Issue 1

Abstract

The article aims to develop the principles and strategic, operational, and transformational areas of the public educational policy. The study allowed substantiating the necessity of taking into account those external factors (economic, social, political, science and technology-related, and cultural) in the process of development of the public educational policy that influence it directly. The study established that the public educational policy of today should be realized on the basis of the following principles: precedence, stability, correspondence between the available resources and the reforms implemented in education, comprehensiveness, consistency, and transparency. It is recommended that priority areas of the public educational policy be grouped in three blocks: strategic, operational, and transformational areas. The following areas were suggested as strategic areas of the public educational policy: ensuring integration of the domestic education into the international educational space; transformation of the traditional educational paradigm into the online and distance one; development and implementation of scientifically substantiated educational standards with a view to improving the quality of education; increasing the employment rate among graduates of educational establishments. The following areas were determined as the operational areas of the public educational policy: formation and development of an ongoing staged educational system; ensuring the conditions allowing free access to the education services for all citizens; improvement of the education funding system. The article recommends the following transformational areas for the public educational policy: improvement of the quality of the learning process through its modernization and intensification; humanization and humanitarization of education; transition from the traditional to the learner-centered education paradigm. The prospects for further research in this field consist in the development of a new organizational and economic mechanism of formation and development of the educational potential of society.
