Introduction. The problem of maintaining the physical health of teachers in educational organizations is discussed in the article in the context of professional “burnout” and conflict prevention. Research methodology. When studying the content and essence of a comfortable educational environment, we were interested in the works that provided for an understanding of the nature of human interaction and reflected the interdependence and communication style of people in direct contact with each other. Research results. The most important factor of external and internal order, determining the content, direction and intensity of work activity, has always been a special atmosphere in the team, which in scientific and social discourse was defined by various terms such as: “microclimate”, “moral and psychological microclimate”, “sociological microclimate”, “comfortable educational environment”. Discussion. Designing refers to the category of innovative creative activity, since it primarily involves a purposeful transformation of reality, the need for which arises whenever there is an awareness of the necessity to move to a prognostic model of an educational or upbringing system. The main purpose of such “educational changes” consists in the possibility for a person himself/herself to learn and self-change during life, to apply knowledge in solving professional tasks. Conclusion. The term “comfortable educational environment" is used to denote a special atmosphere in the team that determines the content, direction and intensity of work activity and manifests itself in such group effects as team members’ mood and opinion, individual well-being, assessment of the person’s living and working conditions in the team. This special atmosphere is regarded on the whole as a result of people’s joint activity, their interpersonal interaction.

The article reflects the regional approaches developed by the author when working with rural schools with low educational results. Special attention is paid to rural schoolsthat are moving into an effective development mode. For rural schools as one of the open self-organizing systems, from the point of view of the synergetic approach, it is necessary to determine the resonant factors that will allow managers of various levels to build effective work. Mentoring is one of these factors that has significant potential. It is considered as an integral part of the regional system, the principles of which apply to the relevant management levels – regional, municipal and educational organization level. This article describes the management model of transferring educational organizations with consistently low educational results to an effective mode, which was finalized in 2020, and which corresponds to system-wide regional approaches and principles, and includes the implementation of mentoring levels. This model describes an original «Strategic system of interaction between the main subjects of mentoring activities in the transition to an effective development mode», which allows us to determine the most important areas of interaction between a rural school that is moving to an effective development mode and a partner school. Special attention is paid to the recommendations that are given at the level of the educational space of the region to schools participating in both regional and federal projects. The described approaches have been used in rural schools in the Ryazan Region since 2020. According to a number of background indicators, all ten rural schools that are switching to an effective development mode have showed positive dynamics.

Currently, rural school faces many difficulties both within its system and outside (unfavorable challenges of the external society), which complicate the organization of the educational process. Accordingly, the atmosphere of psychological comfort for all subjects of educational activity in rural schools decreases. The purpose of the study is to diagnose, record and describe the state of psychological comfort in the education of a modern rural school. The leading method for collecting primary empirical information was the survey method conducted in the format of a Google questionnaire (a questionnaire for representatives of the administration of an educational organization; a questionnaire for a teacher; a questionnaire for primary and high school students; a questionnaire for parents). In the Kirov region, rural and urban schools participated in the study: totally 338 responses to the questionnaire were received, of which 144 are students, 111 parents, 71 teachers and 12 administrations. The article presents the author's interpretation of the concept «psychological comfort of education in rural school». The diagnostics was carried out and the integral coefficient of psychological comfort of education in rural school was determined, measured in three directions: an integral indicator of the attitude to the educational environment; selection of significant characteristics of the educational environment and the index of satisfaction with them; index of psychological safety of the educational environment of the school. In general, the integral coefficient is characterized by a high level. The materials of the article can be used to diagnose the psychological comfort of the both urban and rural schools. Further research will be aimed at developing a concept and defining pedagogical mechanisms for improving the characteristics of the psychological comfort of education in rural schools.

Introduction. The deterioration in the health of children and adolescents in the dynamics of education in general education organizations dictates the need to minimize the risk factors for the development of school-related diseases based on the development of a methodology for calculating the level of hygienic well-being of these organizations, taking into account existing health care opportunities (preserving and improving the health of students). The purpose of the study is to develop a comprehensive indicator for assessing the sanitary and hygienic well-being of educational institutions from the standpoint of health and safety. Material and methods. The methodology for the integrated assessment of the educational environment includes: a) defining a list of the most significant hygienic indicators from the standpoint of health preservation; b) an assessment of the weight of each of them; c) the development of a comprehensive indicator of sanitary and epidemiological well-being, combining individual indicators into one with its translation into a qualitative assessment. Results. Based on the materials of the research, a rationale for a comprehensive assessment of sanitary and hygienic well-being in educational organizations from the standpoint of health care has been proposed, that is, a technique is proposed, the use of which will help determine the full use of opportunities for maintaining and improving health in an educational organization. Discussion. Developed as a result of the conducted research, the algorithm for constructing a comprehensive indicator for assessing sanitary and hygienic well-being allows objectively characterizing the conditions and modes of education in educational institutions from the standpoint of health and safety, determining the risk factors of the educational environment and predicting the likelihood of school-related diseases. The construction of a complex indicator is proposed to be used as an additional assessment of the educational organization’s capacity to preserve the health of students in the dynamics of learning. Conclusion. The proposed model of an integrated assessment of the educational environment, which is based on quantitative (scoring) and qualitative assessments, identifying the resources for maintaining and promoting health in general education organizations, determines: risk factors of the educational environment; definition and prediction of the probability of changes in the students’ health status (positive and negative); justification of the system of management decisions to minimize risk factors and prevent violations in students’ health.
