The purpose of this study is to determine the opinions of administrators and teachers regarding mandatory rotation for administrators. The research utilized the phenomenological method, which is a qualitative approach. The research group comprised ten administrators (principals and vice principals) and ten teachers working in public secondary schools in Bolu city center in the second semester of the academic year 2022-2023 and were selected through an appropriate sampling method. The research data were collected using a semi-structured interview form prepared by the researcher. The data obtained were analysed by descriptive analysis and the data were shown with frequencies according to the repetition status. The research findings revealed that administrators and teachers hold both positive and negative views regarding the implementation of mandatory rotation. Furthermore, administrators and teachers expressed a belief in the overall effectiveness of mandatory rotation. However, administrators do not perceive rotation as effective concerning aspects such as the administrator evaluation form (Appendix-2) and time constraints, while teachers do not perceive rotation as effective regarding the duration of rotation and issues such as interviews and objectivity. Based on these findings, recommendations were made to maintain mandatory rotation for administrators, revise the evaluation form (Appendix-2), reevaluate interviews, and conduct similar studies at various educational levels and in different provinces.
