Annotation: This article presents a historical and pedagogical analysis of the goals of schoolchildren’s vocational training within the educational paradigm of Soviet Russia in the first third of the 20th century. The analysis is methodologically based on a systemic and historical-chronological approach. The relevance of the problem outlined in the article is justified by the renewed interest of the state and society in schoolchildren’s vocational training. An analysis of a range of scientific sources revealed the existence of a sufficient volume of theoretical and practical research on the issue of schoolchildren’s vocational training. However, it was revealed that the issue of schoolchildren’s vocational training within the educational paradigm of Soviet Russia in the first third of the 20th century remains understudied. The aim of this article is to identify and theoretically substantiate the conceptual foundations of the goal-setting mechanism for schoolchildren’s vocational training within the educational paradigm of Soviet Russia in the first third of the 20th century. It is revealed that during the historical period under consideration, schoolchildren’s vocational training was carried out in three forms: during vocational classes, outside of school hours, and through socially useful work. A theoretical study of the objectives of schoolchildren’s vocational training within the educational paradigm of Soviet Russia in the first third of the 20th century has provided grounds for asserting that the objectives of schoolchildren’s vocational training in Soviet Russia in the first third of the 20th century were formulated by scholars and educators in three vectors: general educational, ideological, and comprehensive development of the child’s personality. The prognostic potential of the historical experience of schoolchildren’s vocational training in Soviet Russia in the first third of the 20th century is examined. The scientific significance of the study lies in the fact that for the first time, the objectives of schoolchildren’s vocational training within the educational paradigm of Soviet Russia in the first third of the 20th century have been identified, and directions for improving schoolchildren’s vocational training in the present stage have been formulated through the prism of the historical experience of Soviet Russia in the first third of the 20th century. Theoretical significance of the study: expanded understanding of the objectives of schoolchildren’s vocational training in Soviet Russia in the first third of the 20th century; identified mechanisms for goal-setting in schoolchildren’s vocational training within the educational paradigm of Soviet Russia in the first third of the 20th century; A systematic historical and pedagogical study of a body of primary sources was conducted, which allows us to identify the positive experience of Soviet Russia in organizing vocational training for schoolchildren during the first third of the 20th century. The practical significance of this study lies in the potential application of the obtained results in improving the conceptual foundations of vocational training for schoolchildren today. Furthermore, the factual data presented in the article can be used in the research and educational activities of teachers and students.
