The author also relied on his pedagogical experience in the field of pre-professional media education. The article presents and substantiates seven functions of pre-university journalism training and seven criteria for the typology of pre-university media education; the main formats of pre-university training are considered: classroom classes, creative meetings; work on the creation of a collective media product, participation in competitions, etc. The trends and problems of pre-university media education are highlighted: a quantitative increase in the editorial offices of school media and other forms of training; the increasing diversity of school media formats; active use of distance.Among the problems, the author identifies the personnel problem as the main one and believes that the stake on media training of school teachers has not justified itself. Work with students and undergraduates of journalism departments, their motivation for media education and media pedagogical practice in schools can bring more benefits. As a support for pre-university journalism education, the author considers it necessary to hold competitions among media educators and courses for young journalists, participation in which should be mostly free.
