The modern model of preschool education involves the use of variable educational programs that determine the content of the preschool stage of education, the focus of activities, the degree of complexity and guarantee the full and comprehensive development of the younger generation.

The main educational program of a preschool educational institution determines the specifics of building the life activities of children within the walls of a preschool institution, focused on the comprehensive development of each pupil. This is implemented through the inclusion of varied children’s activities in the educational program, presented in the following forms:

Classes of different directions are a form of educational activity for preschoolers.
Unregulated types of activity are a form of work that is not included in the regulations of the preschool educational institution.
Free time – providing children with independent time, socializing in groups, playing and interacting with peers.

At the present stage of development of society, the model of preschool education is based on public-private partnership in the provision of educational services. This means that there are preschool-type educational institutions under the jurisdiction of state authorities, and there are private preschool institutions. Each institution has the right to use its own educational program, adapting to the needs of different families.

Variability of preschool education programs

The modern education system is represented by six types of preschool educational institutions, therefore, educational programs aimed at preschool educational institutions are presented in various options. At the same time, the Federal State Educational Standards for Educational Institutions have been established, regulating the implementation of educational programs of preschool educational institutions and putting forward requirements for their development.

All preschool education programs are divided into two types:

Comprehensive programs are general developmental programs focused on the implementation of education in all main areas of child development: physical, social, speech, moral, cognitive, artistic and aesthetic, communicative, personal. These programs include activities to reveal the child’s basic abilities, activate his creative potential, cognitive abilities and develop special types of children’s activities characteristic of a specific age group: subject, play, art, theater, music, design.
Partial programs are specialized programs focused on the development of preschool children in a specific area. These could be health conservation programs, remedial education programs, environmental and patriotic development programs, programs for mastering non-standard activities (early reading, handicrafts, cooking, etc.).

Information and educational environment

Within the framework of a unified educational information environment, the formation and development of an innovative education system equipped with organizational, pedagogical and information technologies is taking place. In this environment, architectural and structural solutions provide open standards for interfaces, formats and communication protocols to ensure mobility, stability, efficiency and other positive characteristics achieved by creating open systems.

The purpose and principles of modern education are aimed at preparing students for full and effective participation in the social and professional spheres in market conditions. Giving the education system the qualities of an open system means a radical change in its characteristics towards greater freedom in educational planning, choice of place, time and pace, in the transition from the principle of “education for life” to the principle of “education for life”. In practice, this system is implemented using network technologies. Initially, online learning technologies were widely used by those age and social groups who were forced to give preference to learning in the workplace.

Today, open and distance learning provides various segments of the population with the opportunity to improve their level of education using the Internet. Many Russian universities actively use information and network technologies in the full-time education system. As a result, the more effective use of modern educational technologies in the traditional education system is gradually erasing the differences between full-time, correspondence and distance learning, which is a characteristic feature of the innovative education system.

At the present stage, global changes in the goals and content of education are focused on the development of a qualitatively new model that prepares a person for life and activity in a post-industrial society and equips him with completely new personal qualities and skills necessary for these conditions. All this places new demands on specialists.

The modernization of the Russian education system and the introduction of information and communication technologies into the educational process raise the question of the quality of education in a new way. And today, many countries pay great attention to the problems of the quality and effectiveness of education and combine their efforts in developing methodology, technologies and tools for comparative studies of the quality of education, creating a system for monitoring the quality of education in the world.

Today, a new model of specialist training is being formed in the Russian education system, which takes into account not only the qualification model of a specialist, but also the competency model. The competence of a specialist includes knowledge, abilities, skills, as well as the method of their implementation in activities and communication. In the competency-based model of a specialist, the goals of education are related to interdisciplinary integrated requirements for the result of the educational process. In the first place are the qualitative characteristics of the individual, formed by modern educational technologies. This is not so much about control of knowledge, skills and abilities, but about the quality of the education system.

Training and retraining of teachers is an important area of improving the quality of education. The quality of professional education largely depends on teachers. Universities have a system of advanced training for teachers, which fully meets the requirements of our time and pays great attention to new technologies in education. For example, at the Moscow State Law Academy named after O.E. Kutafin at the Institute of Additional Professional Education, advanced training of the academy's teaching staff is carried out within the framework of the following short-term advanced training programs “Transition to two-level higher legal education based on a competency-based approach”, “Improving the information competence of university teachers” based on innovative educational technologies.
