The article deals with the study of the process of formation of emotional intelligence, namely the cognitive, affective and behavioral components among 8th grade students. Modern realities predetermine the need for students' understanding, awareness, control of their emotions and the emotions of other people for the full development of the emotional sphere and reducing difficulties in communicating with others. The author reveals the essence of emotional intelligence and its development in adolescents. The expediency of creating a program aimed at the formation of emotional intelligence in adolescent students is argued. The effectiveness of the implemented author's program "EmoInt" is proved in 8th grade students, who have formed more indicators of cognitive and affective components, to a lesser extent indicators of the behavioral component of emotional intelligence. The obtained results of the formation of emotional intelligence among eighth-graders can be applied in the work of a teacher-psychologist and teachers in psychological and pedagogical support of the learning process of older adolescents.
