This article focuses on the stress of innovation in higher and secondary education. The authors discuss the concept of stress of innovation. The stress of innovation in educational institutions is the stress that occurs in the process and as a result of introducing innovations in education. Iinnovations for students and teachers are situations evoked stress and post-stress disorders (didactogeny in forms of pediogeny, mathetogeny and eductogeny). Innovation also acts as a way to overcome such stresses, problems, and development crises. These violations and attempts to transform them concern the transformations and deformations of personal, interpersonal, and organizational levels. It is important to note the relationship between causes and consequences, as well as the manifestations of stress of teachers and students at the personal, interactive, educational and organizational levels. The main study objectives are to find out how the stress of innovation in education affects the professional and academic success of teachers and students; and what way it relates to their satisfaction with themselves, their health and life in general. The main research method is a theoretical analysis of problems of the stress of innovation among students and teachers in higher education. At the same time, many conclusions were generalized and extended to secondary education and education in general. The obtained results made it possible to conclude that pupils (students) and teachers need both training in productive and effective methods of preventing and correcting the stress of innovation in situations of organizational and didactic development or, conversely, stagnation, in the context of reforms and other changes, and ideas about possibilities, limitations, mechanisms and directions of development in crisis and stress periods. Crisis and stress states of the child or adult psyche are conditions, which forming and fasten the risk of deviant behavior, developmental disorders, diseases and injuries, etc. These changes become more pronounced in cases, when under conditions of training and education, work and leisure existing and changing relationships in the process of innovation and other changes are not taken into account. All productive and effective innovations in education are connected by an idea – the creation of conditions under which the development of a man as a person, partner and student/professional is inevitable, and not just stated or impossible. While developing an integrative model to prevent and overcome the stress of innovation for students and teachers (in case of mathetogeny, pediogeny and eductogeny), it is important to set and solve the tasks of stress prevention and correction in the process of developing education subjects in different contexts: educational, professional, personal and interactive development ones. Preventing and correcting education in innovative education (and the stress from innovation) is associated with the prevention and correction of pediogeneias (harm caused by the wrong, destructive and pathological attitude of teachers to students), mathetogenias (harm caused by the wrong, destructive and pathological attitude of students to teachers), and eductogenias (harm associated with the deformation of organizational conditions and forms of training and education). A component of this work is psychological (psychotherapeutic) assistance to the education subjects (in the form of one-time consultations and trainings, coaching and systematic support). Such assistance, even in the form of one-time consultations, should nevertheless be aimed at systematic, integrative prevention and correction of stresses in education, including the stresses of innovation.
