Abstract. The article examines the functions of the school in terms of ensuring the quality of education in terms of the challenges of the modern era, the issues of organizing the educational process in accordance with modern requirements, eliminating negative factors, and objective assessment of the activities of educational personnel and students' achievements. Education is not limited only to the transfer of knowledge, but is also a complex process that ensures intellectual, moral and social development. Training methods and content should be improved based on modern approaches, and pedagogical activity should be supported by strategic planning, monitoring and management mechanisms. The reforms carried out in the Azerbaijani education system are related to the country's socio-economic development strategy and aim to raise a competitive, creative and highly educated young generation. The importance of ensuring the quality of education with a scientific, systematic and integrated approach is also emphasized. Quality is not limited only to the assessment of learning outcomes, but also includes the professional development of pedagogical staff, teaching methods, management and efficient use of resources. Improving the quality of education is possible through strategic planning, innovative approaches, and the application of modern monitoring mechanisms, and the importance of scientific and practical research in this area is particularly emphasized.
