Introduction. The school as a social institution reacts to the trends of informatization of life. The learning process takes on a mixed character. The introduction of blended learning into variable models of primary education has real prospects. Blended learning can be effective if a number of conditions are met. The main condition for the effectiveness of the use of blended learning is not just a desire, it is the teacher's willingness to spend time and effort to implement organizational forms of learning in primary schools in a mixed learning environment. It is important to keep in mind the whole set of requirements for a teacher due to his profession and implying a focus on gaining knowledge in this direction, motives and, as a result, skills and experience in using mixed learning technology. A conscious attitude to the choice and implementation of organizational forms of education in primary school, taking into account various formats of blended learning, is an important aspect of its implementation in school practice. The structure of preparedness and readiness for the introduction of blended learning includes the following components: motivational, cognitive, operational and activity, evaluative and reflective.

Materials and methods. The method of analysis of philosophical, linguistic and pedagogical literature covering the problems of blended learning and its implementation in the educational process, as well as the analysis of materials from surveys conducted among teachers and their own pedagogical experience of the introduction of blended learning, was used.

Results. In the process of working on the topic, the conditions for the introduction of mixed learning into variable models of primary education were identified. To obtain information in the form of a holistic picture of the concept of blended learning, a model of the electronic information and educational environment was created, including both elements of the electronic information and educational environment and subjects of the educational process.

Discussion. The implementation of the introduction of mixed education in primary schools is an inevitable process. The effectiveness of the introduction of blended learning depends on the implementation of a number of conditions, which in turn are directly related to the need to model the electronic information and educational environment. These issues require careful consideration. In the course of the work, surveys of the pedagogical community were conducted in order to identify problems in the implementation of blended learning. The surveys helped to comprehend and formulate the conditions for the implementation of blended learning, identify problems, and formulate tasks to solve them.

Conclusion. Blended learning, including in primary schools, is an inevitable process due to the informatization of society as a whole. Blended learning is currently in demand as a modern educational technology, the nature of which is to combine a classroom-based system and e-learning. The effectiveness of blended learning depends on the definition and compliance with the conditions for its implementation.

The introduction of blended learning in variable models of primary education has serious prospects, provided that teachers are ready to implement blended learning in variable models of primary general education;

To introduce blended learning into variable models of primary general education, it is necessary to model the information and educational environment and provide its technical support;

Methodological support for the implementation of blended learning in variable models of primary general education is necessary.
