Abstract

New policies in education are usually created when the current state of education and its contents, i.e. its contexts, are disrupted by a problem, a political decision or a restructuring plan. Policy options can be created in several different ways to adapt to the imbalance. The success of education policy depends on the creation of clear goals. If there are multiple goals, they must be consistent with each other. When conditions change, it should be flexible enough to be able to change them as well. While defining problems and goals in education, policy options should be formulated and evaluated. In many cases, more than one solution can be considered for policy adaptation. Goals can be achieved in many different ways. Best practices from other decision-making circles can be taken into account, and there may be a need to take into account all other possible solutions. By evaluating the options, it may be possible to determine the best one that meets the goals created. Even if the policy is implemented, these types of evaluation are expressed as predicted in advance, since their results are evaluated in advance. Educational policy options can be evaluated if alternative scenarios are developed that allow estimating the possible applications of noteworthy options. The imaginary situation that will be created when policy options are implemented is compared with the real situation, and the transition scenario of the existing imaginary situation can be evaluated in terms of willingness, affordability and applicability. The next stage after evaluating education policy options is decision-making. One of the most important functions in public administration and the public policy process is decision-making. Individuals or institutions have to make decisions in order to ensure their continuity. Decision-making should not be understood as simply doing something or taking a step. Sometimes not doing anything or not taking steps is also making a decision. Key Words: Education Policy, Restructuring, Planning Methods
