Abstract
The purpose of the study is to analyse the main features of the functioning of vocational schools in the Volyn Voivodeship in the interwar period. The research methodology is based on the principles of historicism, scientificity, objectivity and systematicity. The study used both general scientific and special methods: historical and systematic, statistical, analysis, synthesis, and generalization. The scientific novelty lies in the comprehensive study and analysis of the work of vocational schools, the use of statistical information that allows to reveal the regional specifics of the activities of vocational schools and courses, an attempt to prove how the development of vocational education depended on the socio-economic conditions of the region. Conclusions. The organisation and functioning of vocational education in the Volyn Voivodeship can be observed to have a number of peculiarities that were determined by the historical past of the region. The most popular in Volyn were agricultural, commercial, and craft institutions, vocational supplementary schools and courses of professional improvement. The interwar period saw an increase in women's vocational schools, which was due to various public organizations. However, there were many problems: a lack of school premises, a perception that gymnasium education was more prestigious, and the difficult socio-economic situation in the region.
