The relevance of the study is determined by the need to computerize education, on the one hand, and create a safe, friendly learning environment in primary school, on the other. The transition to the "digit" is often hampered by the lack of a clear understanding of the content and structural aspects of the digital ecosystem, the characteristics of this concept, developed on the basis of methodological approaches that integrate ecological-biological, economic, web-centric, psychological and pedagogical scientific knowledge. The purpose of the article is to identify the specific aspects of the primary school digital learning ecosystem and to determine its key characteristics that affect the efficiency and optimal functioning of this system. The methodological basis of the study in the article are systemic, web-centric, ecological, environmental approaches in education. The sources of the study were the works of modern researchers on computerization and the implementation of the ecosystem approach in education, the design of the digital environment. On the basis of an interdisciplinary approach, the methods of literature analysis, induction and deduction, comparison, analysis and synthesis were used. The generalization of the data obtained made it possible to determine the content of the definition "primary school digital learning ecosystem" (DLE), to reveal the properties of this system (purposefulness, multicomponent character, polysubjectivity, openness and availability, variability and hybridity of formats, safety, friendliness and optimality, adaptability, flexibility and personalization). The article describes the directions for improving the primary school DLE, which involve the development of an ecological and safe model of this system, the material and technical equipment of the primary school and the creation of an available digital environment, the improvement of the system of methodological and information support for the digital ecosystem of the primary school, updating the training of teachers and specialists, raising the level of digital literacy of parents / legal representatives, managing the interaction of subjects of the educational process in the digital ecosystem. This study made it possible to reveal the substantive aspect of the concept of "primary school digital learning ecosystem", the key properties of this system, the consideration of which would ensure the fulfillment of modern regulatory requirements, the achievement of primary education results and its quality improvement in the context of computerization.
