Abstract

This study examines the uncertainties encountered in schools within the framework of school objectives, focusing on their implications for educational processes. Acknowledging that uncertainty is a pervasive phenomenon in schools, the research explores how school objectives can both mitigate and clarify these ambiguities. Using a qualitative research design, data were gathered from school administrators and teachers in primary and secondary schools located in the Efeler district of Aydın province. Semistructured interviews provided in-depth insights, which were subsequently analyzed using content analysis. The findings reveal that uncertainties often disrupt motivation, performance, and the overall functioning of educational institutions. Recommendations for effectively addressing these challenges were proposed, emphasizing proactive strategies for uncertainty management. This study contributes to literature by highlighting the interplay between school objectives and uncertainty, offering a practical framework for improving educational practices in uncertain conditions. It addresses a critical gap by identifying actionable strategies for educational stakeholders, ensuring resilience and adaptability in the face of uncertainties.

Keywords: Uncertainty, School objectives, educational processes, stakeholder strategies, resilience in schools
