The insufficient level of legal awareness of Russian citizens is a serious problem of ensuring the rule of law and the rule of law, forms a general destructive background that prevents the formation of an effective system for the protection of human and civil rights and freedoms. Important factors that influence the formation of a positive legal consciousness are the quality level of education and training in educational institutions, the consolidation and development of the basics of legal consciousness in students, changes in the quality of education and training in educational institutions, including the consolidation and development of the tradition of respect for the law as the prevailing model of social behavior. It is at school age that active legal socialization takes place. The main burden in the formation of values for law-abiding behavior should be taken by school legal education. The purpose of the study was to study the regularities of the educational process for the formation of students ' positive legal awareness, the development of value orientations on the inadmissibility of illegal manifestations in the future. In the complex of methodological approaches developed in Russian pedagogy, the system-forming and adequate task of forming the legal culture of students is the methodology of the personality-oriented approach and the set of interrelated pedagogical principles of its implementation. These studies indicate the need to review the vector of measures carried out in accordance with the Fundamentals of State Policy aimed at minimizing nihilism. In the context of the introduction of digital technologies that provide access to legal information, minors relate the surrounding formations from the point of view of the law, focusing not on the process, but on the final result. However, the manifestations of the discrepancy between the legal reality and the fixed normative attitudes cause legal frustration, which often manifests itself in sthenic forms. The results of the study allowed us to come to a conclusion about the state of legal dissatisfaction of minors, due to the discrepancy between the theoretical provisions of the law and law enforcement at the active level of the value-semantic personal sphere. For the purpose of more in-depth scientific research, we believe it is appropriate to designate this social phenomenon as legal deprivation of minors. The specifics of the content of legal education allow us to implement it in the following forms: subject, inter-subject, educational, institutional, project. The most appropriate approach is an integrated approach that combines all of the above forms.
