The article examines the right to education, the implementation of which requires new approaches and new decisions on the part of the state. The global pandemic has revealed that states are not ready to switch to distance learning. With the transition to distance learning it became clear that the concept of the “right to education” is already understood differently, and therefore this right needs to be considered more broadly than we imagined in the traditional learning format. The objectives of the study are to define the concept of “the right to education” in accordance with the legislation of the Republic of Kazakhstan, conduct a theoretical analysis of the present situation and the further development of the education system, its legislative development. When writing a scientific article, sociological methods were used, such as observation and survey of students. This helped to study the legal nature of the “right to education” more deeply to learn from the inside what problems exist in the implementation of this right and propose ways to improve it. Examining the current state and ways of improving the education system in Kazakhstan, the authors classified the right to education by type and were able to propose measures to improve learning in a distance format.
