It was concluded that the perceptions of students and teachers differ according to their gender but the perceptions of the administrators do not differ. According to research results, students who attend schools with high success think that school-related factors have more impact on their future expectations than students who have low success. Teachers’ and administrators’ perceptions do not differ according to the type of school they work in, success of school, and their level of hope for future. Activities aimed at structuring future expectations of students should be planned by school administration and the functionality of guidance services in schools should be increased. School administrators should take the lead in preparing school environment and planning program where teachers can take care of students individually. </p>}, number={2}, publisher={Sakarya University}, organization={yok}
