The paper discusses the issues of meaning-related values of domestic education in the light of the development strategy «Kazakhstan-2050». It is noted that the changes in education are inextricably linked to the processes taking place in the socio-political and economic life of the world community, when the world's leading trend becomes the globalization of social and cultural processes. It is shown in the paper that the meaning-related values of the domestic education should become the values that have stood the test of time. These include independence, national unity, peace and harmony in the Kazakhstan society, secular society and high spirituality, common history, culture and language. The authors suggest: to overcome the meaning-related and value-related disorientation of the person of the transitional society (such as the Republic of Kazakhstan), we should turn to the history of domestic education philosophy, which ontological basis is culture. It is known that culture is a way of providing, organizing and improving the activity of humanity, which is necessarily reproduced by the passing generations. The core of culture is constituted by the universal human values, humanistic ideals as well as the historically established ways of their perceiving and attaining. Being a universal phenomenon, culture is perceived, mastered and reproduced by each person individually, conditioning his/her personal growth.
