Political parties try to express their policies regarding the structure and functioning of the education system through party programs. As in all countries, policies regarding the education system have an important place in party programs in Turkey. The aim of this study is to examine the programs of political parties in Turkey in terms of the structure of the Turkish National Education System; the aim is to present their views on “PreSchool Education”, “Primary Education”,“General Secondary Education”, “Vocational Technical Secondary Education”,“Higher Education” and “Non-Formal Education-Adult Education-Continuous Education”. In this context, it is important to express the similarities in the objectives of the political parties regarding the structure of the Turkish Education System. In this study, the qualitative research method was used. The data of the research were collected through document analysis. The study population consisted of all the political parties in The Grand National Assembly of Turkey (GNAT) . The sample of the study consists of five political parties selected according to the criterion sampling method, which is one of the purposive sampling methods. These political parties can be listed as follows according to the number of members: 1.Justice and Development Party (JDP), 2.Republican People's Party (RPP) 3.Peoples’ Democratic Party (PDP) 4.National Movement Party (NMP) 5.Good Party (GP) . The data sources of the study are the party programs of political parties. The documents regarding the party programs were taken from the official websites of the parties. In the context of suitability for the purpose of the study, the documents were analyzed by the content analysis method. The findings of the research are given without adding the researcher's comment, according to the themes and codes created. According to the findings, there are quite a lot of statements about the structure of the Turkish National Education System in the programs of political parties. As a result of the analysis, it has been determined that there are many similarities in the programs of the five parties, although there are many differences in the objectives of the parties regarding the structure of the Turkish Education System.  \nKeywords: Political Parties, Party Programs, Education, The Turkish National Education System  \nDOI: 10.29329/epasr.2022.442.7  \n1 Assoc.Prof.Dr., Ziya Gökalp Faculty of Education, Dicle University, Diyarbakır, Turkey, ORCID: 0000-0002-8177-5670  \nCorrespondence: [ahcoban@gmail.com](ahcoban@gmail.com)  \nIntroduction  \nPolitical parties are indispensable elements of democracies. The construction and maintenance of democracies depends on political parties. “Strong political parties are essential to open, competitive democratic politics, particularly in emerging democracies”(Johnston, 2005) . The primary role of political parties is to set the political agenda and policies. It is in this process of representing the opinions of citizens and acting as the agencies of people‟s political participation that political parties perform the role of intermediaries, facilitating the relationship between citizens andinstitutions of the states (Chandra, 2021) . According to Kurniadi (2019), the political parties as the drivers of the upholding of democracy are means for citizens to participate in the process of managing the state.  \nPolitical parties are critical institutions through which citizens organize themselves to participate in public life, among which they choose at elections, and through which elected officials cooperate to build and maintain the coalitions that are the hallmark of democratic politics. They are vital to the realization of representative democracy (European Commission Fo","cbCaif2YtZk7kFk2","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaif2YtZk7kFk2","pdf",472343,34,"English","# Abstract\n# Introduction\n## Role of political parties in democracy\n## Legal foundation of political parties\n## Education as a public priority\n# Methods and data sources\n## Qualitative research design\n## Document and content analysis\n## Study population and sample\n# Findings and conclusions","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of the study on Turkish political party programs?\",\"answer\":\"The study aims to examine party programs in Turkey in relation to the structure of the Turkish National Education System and to present parties’ views on multiple education levels and education forms.\"},{\"question\":\"Which education stages and categories are analyzed in the research?\",\"answer\":\"The research focuses on PreSchool Education, Primary Education, General Secondary Education, Vocational Technical Secondary Education, Higher Education, and Non-Formal Education–Adult Education–Continuous Education.\"},{\"question\":\"How is the research conducted and what sources are used?\",\"answer\":\"A qualitative research approach is used, with data collected through document analysis.
