Abstract

This study aimed at the effectiveness of the branch teachers’ committee based on teachers’ opinions. It covers 66 middleschool teachers working in Bucak town centre in Burdur province. A data gathering form consisting of open-ended questions was used. The descriptive analysis technique was used. It was understood that issues considered in this committee were not assessed effectively. The reason for such observation was that these meetings were usually held in a perfunctory way and teachers did not give necessary importance to these meetings. In addition, about 70% of teachers thought that decisions taken at the branch teachers committee were not applied. Teachers indicated, for further functional branch teacher committee, that it was necessary to evaluate subjects more in-depth, decision with higher possibility of realisation should be taken and school administration should offer required support for these decisions.

Keywords: Middle school, branch teachers’ committee meeting, effectiveness.
