In the article there are considered the problems associated with the role of civil society in the formulation and development of the educational policy of modern Russia. The authors believe that the elements of civil society that exist in today’s Russia have a certain impact, though insufficient, on the formation of its educational policy. Meanwhile, such “initiators” of changes in the world educational space as globalization, informatization and multiculturalism require indispensable and effective participation of civil society in the reform processes taking place today in education. The problem is exacerbated by the fact that the government has given some of the functions of the education reform management to the civil society, thus transforming it into an active subject of the educational reform.
