Urgency of creation

The classical educational system and institutions of personality education did not cope with the tasks assigned to them. There was a situation in which schools and centers of additional education lagged behind those needs and demands that society presented to the personal development of schoolchildren.

Yaroslavl Regional Innovation and Education Center "New School" was created in order to form the personality of schoolchildren with modern, effective and accessible educational methods.
