Legal foundations of educational management in Canada

World education at the present stage consists of many different national systems. They differ from each other in national goals and objectives, cultural traditions, as well as the state of the quality of education. Russian education is undergoing a stage of reform. Now the transformations have affected the sphere of control (supervision) of educational organizations. General trends in changes in control and supervisory activities are aimed at reducing the administrative burden on business and, at the same time, increasing the protection of legally protected values. During the discussions, among other things, it was proposed to replace state control (supervision) with public control in certain areas. It will be relevant to analyze the experience of managing the education system,including state and public control, in foreign countries. As an example, the article considers Canada, which has much in common with Russia: multinationalism, large territory, federal structure, levels of education, etc., while Canada has a high rating on the assessment of education at the world level. The author assessed the management of the Canadian education system, the legal regulation of state and public control (supervision). Studying foreign experience will allow integrating it into the Russian education system, which, in turn, will allow integrating Russian education in the global world. The study was conducted using comparative legal analysis, generalization of information.
