A Qualitative Research on the Problems and Expectations of Imam Hatip Secondary School Students (The Case of Istanbul Province)∗

Abstract

Imam Hatip Secondary Schools are the schools where the lessons related to religion (The Holy Quran, Tafsir and Hadith etc.) are taught as a compulsory part of the curriculum. In other secondary schools, only one religion lesson is compulsory, and the other religion-related lessons are taught as elective. The aim of this research is to examine the problems of Imam Hatip Secondary School students in school, to learn their expectations and to identify the school of their ideals. The research was carried out through a semi-structured interview form, one of the qualitative research methods. It was held in 2019 at the 13 Imam Hatip Secondary Schools in Istanbul with the participation of 156 students. The research in which the results are given by creating themes; reveals that the students are generally satisfied with their schools, they love the school more to see their friends and participate in the activities. In addition, students have emotional expectations from their teachers and administrators; like showing them more interest and smiling. Students described their ideal schools as follows; school uniform is not compulsory, they only attend lessons of interest and have longer break hours. Teachers can have short conversations with their students before starting the lesson. Motivation activities can be held for the lessons students are hesitant about whether they will benefit them in the future. Most importantly, school can be developed in line with students wishes and needs by holding frequent meetings with their.
