Abstract

This study aimed to examine the effect of the teaching profession law on the teaching profession. In this study, the qualitative research method and case study design were used. Participants of the research were 10 school administrators and 19 teachers working in public schools in Konya, Türkiye, during the spring term of the 2021-2022 academic year. Sampling method of research is maximum variety. Acording to this study, the law is criticized for limiting the teaching profession to exams and the economic return of the exam. The law is also seen as inadequate as the problems and expectations of the teaching profession are enacted without adequately taking the opinions of the teachers. The career steps examination has a limited contribution to the teaching profession. The teaching profession requires the interaction of various elements such as training, examination, activities. Based on the findings, the teaching profession law can be revised through the opinions of the stakeholders. Issues related to the profession, especially the prestige of the teaching profession, can be included in the law.
