Abstract
One of the guaranteed state-controlled rights is the right to education. In independent Ukraine, the right to choose an educational institution, depending on the parents' financial capacities, their vision of the child's future employment and his or her abilities, is legally justified. The content of education, in addition to the compulsory, standardized component to be provided by public schools, includes the optional optional component. As an educational subject to teach students proper behavior, from September 1, grades 5-6 have introduced the compulsory non-religious subject Ethics, much of which is covered by secular etiquette.
