The materials are based on scientific works on the problem in the field of social, psychological, pedagogical sciences; the data the author obtained in the course of experimental work. Results: the model of the formation of social competence of senior school students is a logically completed theoretical construct of the author’s vision of this process and is represented by substantive, procedural and criteria blocks.
