The close link between decentralization reform and the reform of national education is pointed out, so the reform concerning local self-government is based on European standards, in particular, it is based on the European Charter of Local Self-Government, which provides OTG with new opportunities. Thanks to the decentralization reform, issues related to the education system can now be addressed at the local level. It is noted that one of the key changes in the decentralization reform was the establishment of support schools in the communities. One of the issues in the field of education that decentralization is designed to address is ensuring access to education in minority languages, as Ukrainian citizens are equal. and must have equal access to all goods. It is pointed out that the new educational model is unique for Ukraine, as secondary education is transferred to local communities and their associations, and specialized and higher education belong to state functions.
