Review of One of the Education Policies: Total Quality Management in Schools

This paper reviews one of the policies which have been removed from implementation as a management approach (Total Quality Approach) in education. The main argument is that barrowing policies from abroad without considering to what extend the characteristics of the existing system would suit to the intended approach or to what extend the major needs of it would been met by the existing system are the major issues to take into account before introducing any policies in education. Therefore, Total Quality management approach and requirements of successful implementations are discussed by setting these arguments in Turkey's education.
