摘要:The general opinion about the importance of pre-school education
and about the positive effects of the educational curriculum on children, their
families and today’s society gains more supporters with each passing day. In
particular, the discussions are concentrated on increasing the investment in preschool
education. Providing the pre-school education for children at an
intended level depends on the physical conditions, choosing the curriculum and
personnel well, and careful planning. The aim of this study is to examine the role
of pre-school education in the Turkish education system and to propose
suggestions for changes by identifying the problems of programme, control
mechanisms, work regulations and personnel rights, physical environment,
administration and administrators, staff, finance, parents, self-awareness and
self development. It also aims to increase the quality of pre-school education in
Turkey in all respects. In this study, a questionnaire has been designed to
analyse and evaluate the opinions of Turkish pre-school teachers on ‘the
problems of pre-school education’. The subjects of the study are 1760 pre-school
teachers from public or private educational institutions which are under the
provision of either the Ministry of Education, or the Society for the Protection
of Children, or practice schools within universities.
