“…Multicultural education aims to help students acquire positive behaviour traits such as the ability to empathize, and the showing of respect and tolerance to others (Sinagatullin, 2003). Aydin (2013a) stating that the goal of multicultural education is to consider the ethnic and racial differences of students as an educational alternative and contribute to the knowledge, skills and behaviors of students. Halvorsen and Wilson (2010) underline the fact that multicultural education is aimed at all children, and defend the view that it is an undertaking that helps in establishing equal opportunities in education for those originating from different cultures as well as to allow the acquisition of knowledge, skills and behaviours that will allow students to participate in democratic society.…”

Problem Statement: The concept of multiculturalism was in general perceived in terms of ethnic background or difference in race and so brought forth negative viewpoints and apprehensions with regard to the issue. It is undoubtedly of great importance to provide comprehensive educational systems in which individuals in multicultural societies can live together in peace. Therefore the attempt to determine the perceptions of the teachers towards multiculturalism is essential as they are responsible for the organization of class learning environments. Likewise it is important to analyze the degree to which educational programs actually carry or incorporate these multicultural principles with view to ensuring an education that will include all students and ensure they are raised in a way that embraces peace Nevertheless the number of studies conducted in Turkey on this topic to date remains very small.

“…When the data obtained in this study is considered, the expectations of parents towards teachers with regard to issues outside teaching, the demands of parents to always comsult with teachers, and the inability of teachers to continue the teaching process as planned lead to a reduction in effective and productive teaching activities. These issues occupy teachers' working time, efforts and minds more than is necessary..It has been observed that at the root of this problem lies the fact that parents have not yet reached the desired level (of understanding) as regards 'appointment culture,' namely the parents have not yet developed an awareness with regard to (the importance and meaning) of appointments (Aydin, 2012;Aydin 2013). This situation constricts teachers, reduces the productivity of their work, and leads to weariness after a certain time and to their repetition of set answers (in response to parents' queries).…”
