The criteria for establishing the level of education of the Self-concept of younger schoolchildren in extracurricular activities (cognitive, emotional-value, volitional and behavioral) are defined, which reflect the corresponding components of the Self-concept of younger schoolchildren. Each of these criteria has indicators that reveal their essence in more detail and complement each other. Based on this, the levels of the Self-concept development in the Primary School students in extracurricular activities (low, medium, high) are characterized.
