Abstract:
The article deals with fundamental models of educational administration offered by Ukrainian scientists. The main changes at the legislative level which should facilitate the reforms of the types of administration in the educational sphere are also mentioned. On the basis of the analysis of democratization processes, the experience of Ukrainian researchers in this field is generalized and the directions of democratization at different educational administration levels are identified; also the ways to increase the efficiency of democratization process of educational institutions administration based on a certain division of powers between governmental, self-governing, educational and public structures are identified. Democratization of administration system of educational institutions is a complex and multifaceted process which requires a careful study. Unfortunately, such disadvantages as excessive centralization of educational institutions administration, authoritarianism, lack of competency and professionalism of managers of educational institutions slow down the process of democratization, prevent educational system from its self-development and synthesis of domestic and foreign experience.
