The article discusses the problem of forming individual educational paths for high school students, for which a more effective organizational and pedagogical assistance is required through the implementation of joint activities between the general education schools and the professional education system aimed at creating a comprehensive information and activity educational space - «School-University» that ensures continuity of goals, content, and organizational forms between the stage of pre-professional training and the stage of professional education. The study defines, theoretically justifies, and implements the process of forming individual educational paths for high school students in the information and activity educational space - «School-University». The work also specifies the content of the «individual educational paths» concept as a fundamental condition for successful personal and professional self-determination, manifested in a stable integrative quality that includes motivational-value, information-cognitive, operational-activity, and reflexive readiness for independent designing and adjusting personal and professional plans and intentions of students.
