Abstract

This research is dedicated to studying the implementation of teacher performance management system and its impact on the quality of education. Through a descriptive qualitative approach, the researcher seeks to understand teachers' experiences, the challenges of implementing this system, and its contribution to student achievement. It is highlighted that teachers have a high awareness of the performance management system, but they face challenges such as heavy workload and limited resources. School leadership plays a crucial role in creating a conducive environment for the implementation of the management system. The research shows that successful implementation of the teacher performance management system correlates with improved education quality. Recommendations include curriculum development, strengthening the role of school leadership, implementing a clear reward system, revising school policies, and conducting further research. These recommendations aim to improve practices and policies that encourage teacher involvement and enhance education quality. This research contributes to a better understanding of the complexity of implementing teacher performance management systems and their importance for education quality. The findings and recommendations of this research can serve as a basis for improving practices and policies at a broader level of education.
