The article describes a theoretical study of the pedagogical conditions for the formation of children's value orientations. The study included the analysis of concepts, methodological approaches, general and specific patterns of the process of raising children in relation to the subject of study, and a brief description of pedagogical conditions. The study used the data of a monitoring of modern youth's value orientations conducted in 2022 by the Institute for the Study of Childhood, Family and Education of the Russian Academy of Education in eight federal districts of the Russian Federation. The pedagogical conditions for the formation of children's value orientations are interpreted as regard to the factors of the internal (educational organization, personal development) and external (sociocultural environment, society as a whole) environments that objectively influence the formation of children's positive or negative value orientations, as well as the creation of opportunities (resources and ways to improve efficiency) that ensure the appropriation and implementation of socially significant values in children's minds, feelings and behavior. The internal conditions in educational organizations include: actualization of the personal position of children, their personal experience, initiatives in the education; purposeful systemic orientation of the content of implemented educational programs and methodological support of educational activities to the formation of value orientations of children; creation and functioning in an educational organization; formation of the way of the education as a stable system of sociopedagogical interactions, taking into account the peculiarities of sociocultural conditions, the contingent of children, their families and the sociocultural environment; the influence of teachers, their pedagogical culture on children's value orientations. An educational organization can become a key social institution in the formation of children's value orientations in the implementation of these internal conditions for increasing the efficiency of the process under study. External pedagogical conditions for the formation of children's value orientations include: the impact on the formation of children's value orientations of other social institutions of education, primarily the family; legal regulation of educational activities for the formation of value orientations of children; the impact of digitalization, digital transformation of education on the forming of children's value orientations; the impact of geopolitical and internal Russian sociopolitical processes. The identified external and internal pedagogical conditions should be taken into account in the design of pedagogical models for the formation of the value orientations of children studying in different educational organizations.
