The relevance of the research problem stems from the specificity of the system of fundamental education in the 21st century, which implies a capacity of educational establishments not only to provide knowledge to the student, but also, due to the continuous and rapid emergence of new knowledge, to shape a need in ongoing independent absorption of knowledge throughout the entire life. An important role in this process is played by the consideration of opinions not only of young generation which is the main target of educational institutions, but also of people of all other ages who become active subjects of the educational process. The paper objective is to reveal pressing challenges associated with reformation of the Russian system of education through the intergenerational discourse. The main method used for research was the representative mass survey of population of the Republic of Tatarstan. The research results helped to identify the intergenerational peculiarities of assessment of such aspects of the education system, as a possibility to obtain appropriate education and knowledge; a possibility to fulfill oneself in the profession and study; impact of education on personal social promotion; implementation of bilingualism policy in the educational system of the republic. The intergenerational dynamics of educational level across the respondents as compared to their parents is also presented in this paper.

With the growing number of people with disabilities and the need for their socialization, the role of their included education is growing. The article highlights the features of language teaching in the system of inclusive education of youth with disabilities. The specifics of learning the two main languages in the context of the language reform taking place in the national republics is considered. In the framework of inclusive education, the opportunities, advantages and difficulties of learning in two main languages of the Republic of Tatarstan (Russian Federation) of different groups of students with disabilities: dyslexic and mental illnesses, hearing impaired and deaf, visually impaired and blind, etc. The problem is the serious differences between the Turkic and Slavic languages in the field of grammar, in particular, in the construction of phrases, in the combination of the main verb with unions and particles, with auxiliary verbs and others. Difficulties in spelling, phonetics and syntax of the Russian and Tatar languages, quite overcome by most children with disabilities, become an obstacle for children with a number of mental illnesses who are unable to learn in an inclusive environment. As for diseases such as blindness, severe myopia, complete and partial hearing loss, cerebral palsy, serious cardiovascular diseases, lack of limbs and other diseases and physical limitations of children with disabilities, most of them do not interfere with inclusive language training.
