Abstract

The article highlights the Ukrainian experience of modernising the content of primary education under state independence of Ukraine. Based on the dynamics of the introduction of the State Standards for Primary Education and of a competence-based approach, the following four stages identified: the 1st stage: a Law of Ukraine “On Education” (1996) was adopted, the theoretical and legal preconditions for the development of the national Ukrainian school and State Standard for the 11-year school developed; the 2nd stage: the transition to a 12-year school started; its structure was defined, Concept of 12-year General Secondary Education was developed; the 3rd stage: the working State Standard for the 4-year School was modernized; the 4th stage: the new State Standard is based on the provisions of the Law “On Education” (2017) and of the Concept of the New Ukrainian School. The author reveals how an innovative algorithm for constructing a standard was applied; from obligatory outcomes of primary education in the state standards – to the expected outcomes in typical educational programs; content, forms, methods are the means to achieve different types of educational outcomes.
