The article notes that quality education is the foundation for intellectual, cultural, spiritual, social and economic development of the State and its components. It has been noted that the fundamental direction of education is the multi-vector evolution of a person as an individual and the highest value of society, development of his/her talents, mental and physical abilities, education of high moral qualities, formation of citizens capable of making a conscious social choice, enrichment on this basis of the intellectual, creative, cultural potential of the people, improvement of their educational level, and provision of the State with qualified specialists. The essence of the definition of “education” lies in understanding it as a purposeful process of acquiring and honing knowledge and skills, values, beliefs and habits through various forms of cognitive activity, as well as education and training in the circles of interests of a person and society, which is confirmed by the statement that a citizen has mastered the educational levels determined by the state. The article establishes that the State is one of the main subjects of the control function in society. This follows from the fact that the State has the capabilities and is endowed with real powers to influence society, and in the course of such influence it relies on the results of control. The author emphasises that the State is the central subject of implementation of the control function in society, since it has all the necessary levers of influence on it, using an extensive system of relevant authorised public administration bodies. The main purpose of these bodies is to ensure legality and discipline, which is directly related to their jurisdictional activities. It is emphasised that the legislator has developed a hierarchical pyramid of relevant governing bodies of public authority in Ukraine to implement the State control over the exercise of administrative jurisdiction by educational institutions. This system of public authority includes several levels: from the parliamentary-presidential, governmental-central and regional levels to the regional and district levels.
