Abstract:
The article is devoted to the current process of the Russian educational system modernization. The crucial task of the Russian educational policy is to ensure the modern quality of education based on preserving its fundamental nature and compliance with the current and future needs of the individual, society and the state. Modernization of education is a political and national task; it should not and cannot be carried out as a departmental project. The interests of society and the state in the field of education do not always coincide with the sectoral interests of the educational system itself, and therefore the determination of the educational modernization directions cannot be locked in the framework of the educational community and the educational department. All Russian citizens, the family and the parent community, federal and regional state institutions of power, local governments, the professional and pedagogical community, scientific, cultural, commercial and public institutions should become active subjects of educational policy. The educational modernization goal is to create a mechanism for the sustainable development of the education system.

To achieve this goal, the following interrelated tasks will be solved as a matter of priority:
- state guarantees of accessibility and equal opportunities for obtaining a full-fledged education;
- achievement of a new modern pre-school, general and vocational education quality;
- formation of legal organizational and economic mechanisms for attracting and using extrabudgetary resources in the education system;
- improving the social status and professionalism of educators, strengthening their state and public support;
- development of education as an open state-public system based on the responsibility distribution between the subjects of educational policy and the increasing role of all participants in the educational process: the student, teacher, parent, educational institution.

The basis of the modern educational state policy is formed by socially targeted and balanced social interests. The strategic educational modernization goals can be achieved only in the process of constant interaction of the educational system with representatives of the national economy, science, culture, health care, all interested departments and public organizations, with parents and employers.The implementation of the education modernization affects almost every Russian family. The essence of changes in education, their goals, directions, methods should be regularly explained to the population, and the results of public opinion should be closely studied by education authorities and heads of educational institutions and taken into account when modernizing education.
