Prosecutor’s Protection of Public Interest in Education: A Civil Procedure Aspect

The paper deals with the issues of the prosecutor’s protection of public interest related to educational legal relations and (or) their individual elements. The dualism of private and public principles in the legal regulation of educational relations generates a number of problems in terms of protection of these rights. The issues are poorly researched in the science, but in practice they are very relevant. The problems under discussion are considered by the author on the example of civil cases initiated by the prosecutor: actions for nullity of documents on education and qualifications; actions in defense of the interests of educational organizations (directly or indirectly); actions in defense of an indefinite number of students. It is concluded that it is necessary to endow a specialized executive authority with the right to bring an action for nullity of an educational document and that it is possible to consider the issue of nullity of educational documents in administrative proceedings.
