It is established that educational management in wartime acquires the features of crisis management, which consists in constant monitoring, identification and localization of problematic phenomena occurring in the educational environment. At the same time, educational management ensures high-quality and efficient use of resources in an educational institution, and its main task is to create the best conditions for the education and development of students, to improve the quality of education, and to solve problems arising in the educational process. At all stages of educational management in the context of crisis, it is necessary to take into account the needs and interests of students, teachers, administrative staff and parents, as well as to ensure effective interaction and cooperation between them to achieve the common goals of the educational institution and the quality of the educational process. It is determined that educational management in the context of war and crisis in Ukraine requires additional efforts to ensure the continuity and uninterrupted educational process; maintain the stability of funding for educational institutions; communicate with students, teachers and the public; develop new forms and methods of teaching; conduct training on distance platforms, etc.
