Abstract
The article examines the results of a 10-year period of active reform of the Moscow education system. The reforms began as an initiative of the federal government, and their implementation in Moscow had its own specifics. The measures to standardize the unified educational space, a new system of remuneration, per capita financing are described. Changes in the structure of the city's education management – the liquidation of district education departments, the unification of schools and kindergartens into educational complexes, the emergence of new functions for the school and its administration are analyzed from the point of view of the concept of change management. The main consequences of the reforms are the emergence of a socio-professional stratum of school administrators who adhere to a single system of values, as well as the reduction of social tension, the equalization of resource capabilities of the bulk of schools and the improvement of educational results of Moscow education as a whole. The empirical basis consists of statistical data and the results of interviews with school administrators – principals and their deputies, most of whom successfully coped with new tasks and working conditions during the period of intensive reform of the capital's education.
