Abstract | The inspection program is a crucial element of the education system and has a significant role in improving education quality. In Turkey, there may be a need for reform in the education inspection program to upgrade an efficient inspection. The Ministry of Education (MoNE) does not employ inspectors anymore. The duties of inspectors are undertaken by school principals or vice-principals. Along with the fact, the school principals are not trained for inspection and may not have the proficiency/educational/operational background to perform these duties. The current study explored the role of education inspection currently performed by school principals. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and focus group interviews and field notes. The participants of the study were English teachers from different institutions and learners from a high school. The findings revealed that teachers and students have different suggestions regarding educational inspection. There are often inconsistencies in inspection, teachers are observed and may not receive post-observation feedback. Branch expertise of inspectors is needed to offer better insight into teaching. The student participants offered that the teachers should be observed by inspectors on their effective use of engaging teaching methods and trained accordingly. Besides, students described inequalities regarding education in Turkey and offered that inspection practices should bring equity in educational settings. This study offers some implications for MoNE and school principals. (As Provided). |
