Abstract
This research, which is designed on the phenomenon of a headteacher, which is frequently on the agenda of our country in recent years and which attracts attention in terms of career planning in teaching, examines how the concept of “Head-teacher” is perceived by different participants, the opinions and information of the participants on this subject, how they evaluate the process of determining the title in line with the criteria , and their expectations from the title. aims to explain the reasons. The research has a phenomenological design and maximum diversity sampling, which is one of the purposeful sampling methods, was preferred in the determination of the participants. Thus, interviews were conducted with administrators and teachers working in schools at different socio -economic levels, union presidents and branch managers who are currently working through a semistructured interview form. The data obtained from the interviews were analyzed by content analysis and the codes obtained as a result of the analysis were interpreted by associating them with appropriate themes. As a result of the analysis, a total of 152 codes were reached. The codes obtained were gathered under six different themes and they were conveyed with the quotations obtained from the participants’ opinions . As a result, it was concluded that the participants defined the headteacher phenomenon differently from the career steps defined in the Occupational Law, they had expectations and concerns about the process, and the criteria determined within the scope of the law during the evaluation process were insufficient. Therefore, we foresee that holding information meetings in order to reduce the concerns about the process, redesigning the criteria and evaluation process in a more objective and merit -based way, and organizing the career ladder at a level that meets the expectations of teachers will increase the quality of education and also make teachers give more importance to their personal development.
