Abstract
The article examines the relevance and significance of designing the content of primary education in the country at the present stage on the basis of innovative approaches. While highlighting the main directions for developing the content of primary education through innovative methods, special attention is paid to the psychological, physiological, age-related, and evolutionary characteristics of learners, as well as to modern changes in the educational paradigm. When developing educational content, it is necessary to take into account the results demonstrated by Kazakhstani students in international assessment studies. Based on the analysis of standard curricula and textbooks for subjects taught in primary grades, the need for innovative pedagogical approaches is identified. In conclusion, it is emphasized that the content of primary education based on innovative approaches and aimed at achieving meta-subject goals, including moral education and the systematic integration of national values into all subjects, contributes to the upbringing of a cultured, flexible, mobile, conscious, intelligent, and creative individual.
