We should take into consideration diverse and changing needs and demands of the society for the transparency of education as a social institution. However, while studying the urgent priorities of the participants of the educational process, in particular, parents, we realize the need to be wary while using parental preferences as a direct guide for management decision-making in the field of education and, on the other hand, we should make account of opportunities and prospects development of a culture of consumer demands of the parents as individuals of the choice and estimation of school activity.
