The purpose of this research is to investigate the specifity of management in the pedagogical system. The main research methods were systems analysis, comparison, generalization, and concretization. The research analyzed and generalized the set of principles, methods, organizational forms, and technologies of pedagogical system management. The object (the activity of managed people) and product (pedagogical management) of an educational process manager were determined. It was found that the specificity of pedagogical management consists in the features of the object, product, tools, and results of the work of an educational manager, which is reflected in the level of education and development of students, i.e. the object of management. It was found that reasonable consideration of management specificity in the pedagogical system and management thereof requires a comprehensive approach: systematic and comprehensive analysis of the results of managerial and pedagogical activity; determination of regular connections; determination of specific conditions and problems; development of a dynamic structure and technology of management; substantiation of the principles, functions, methods, and organizational forms and techniques of management in the pedagogical system.
