Differences Encountered by Classroom Teachers Who Worked at Private and State Schools in the Implementation of the Teaching Programs

Abstract

This research concentrates on the differences in implementing teaching programs in private and state schools within the context of the experiences of private school classroom teachers who worked at state schools. This qualitative research has a phenomenological design. Content analysis was used during data analysis. Research results have revealed that classroom teachers working at private schools stick to the content of the program, support the use of resource books and attach much more significance to some of the lessons. Due to the support of the management in private schools, the readiness of the students and physical equipment of the school, a difference has been determined in terms of the methods and techniques used in the implementation process of the teaching program. There has been no difference across measurement and evaluation except for testing students with pilot tests.
