The article describes the problem of forming an individual educational trajectory of primary school students in the modern educational space. Based on the analysis of the scientific literature, the essence of the concepts «individual educational trajectory», «individual curriculum» is specified and the stages of realization of an individual educational trajectory are determined. Emphasis is placed on the importance of the pedagogical support of the studentʼs movement along the individual educational trajectory. It is found that the individual educational trajectory is a way to implement personal potential of the student. It takes into account student’s abilities, interests, needs, motivation, opportunities and experience, and is based on the choice of types, forms and pace of education. The individual educational trajectory of the student is created on the basis of the individual development program and individual curriculum. Pedagogues elaborate it in interaction with students and their parents, and the pedagogical council of the educational institution gives an approval for its implementation. The authors of the article define some requirements for developing effective individual educational trajectory for primary school students. They include knowledge of the student’s personality, his/her psycho-physiological features and possibilities; organization of differentiated learning, which involves structuring the content of educational material, selection of techniques and teaching aids in accordance with the typological features of students; emphasis on the development of specific personal abilities and individual potential of the students as a guideline for their educational activities; advisory assistance to the teacher in building the student’s own educational program and determining the individual pace of its mastery. Keywords: educational environment, individual educational trajectory, individual development program, individual curriculum, primary school seeker, primary school teacher.
