Abstract

In this article prepared by Kobchikova E.V. and Makarov T.G., the connection between private law with educational relations is considered; it is stated that educational relations are characterized by the presence of public and private components in them. The work gives a detailed description to civil relations in the sphere of education, explores the concept of educational service, and considers the place of an agreement for rendering paid educational services among other service agreements. The authors of the article note that this agreement, just like the majority of civil law contracts, is a bilaterally binding one, i.e., both parties (educational institution and student) are bound with mutual obligations. In accordance with the principles of private law regulations, educational relations are regulated by the parties to the agreement for rendering fee-based educational services, based on the legal equality of the parties. Thus, the subjects of educational relations may create rights and obligations for themselves, as well as to change and terminate them. The authors note that agreements in the sphere of professional education allow students developing independence in learning, thus letting them controlling their educational experience in accordance with their needs and interests. All this points to the significant role of private law in the regulation of educational relations.
