PEDAGOGICAL DIAGNOSTICS

Abstract

The need for reform of Bulgarian education has long been accepted by everyone. The reform of education is not the “good forgotten old”, but an alternative to education, which also implies continuity. The role of education in Bulgaria in the new century is determined by the tasks that stand before us, assimilation of the values of the democratic and legal society, of the market economy, of the standards of the Euro-Atlantic and European structures. In the modern world, education is imposed as the most important factor for ensuring a new quality of management, economy and society, for increasing the influence of human capital and building the knowledge society. Children are the only starting “material” of education, the main resource and basic capital of society today and in the future. If we want to be a competitive country, we must emphasize education as the main element for building a modern European state with knowledgeable, linguistically literate, mobile and competitive individuals with a high sense of self.
