Abstract
The aim of this study is to examine and determine parents’ perception of educational quality for primary schools. 30 primary school parents were the subjects in conducting this research; these subjects were selected using stratified sampling methods. The data was collected with a semi-structured interview questionnaire form. According to the research findings; parents’ perception of teacher quality was the highest one among the input variables related to educational quality. Additionally, among the process variables, especially curriculum and method are regarded essential for a quality education. Finally, parents’ expectations as the output of a quality education are good citizens, self-confident individuals, qualified students and cultured people. According to two strata of parents, teacher was described as the most important factor for educational quality, while for the third strata it was qualified person. In addition, given the fact that parents classified 17, 18 and 16 different concepts having primary, secondary and tertiary importance respectively for educational quality, it is clear that parents have different perceptions of educational quality.
