Özet:

 Due to the increasing cost of education and the growing demand for quality education, available financial resources become insufficient. This situation is having a negative impact on educational institutions worldwide. To respond to this challenge, school administrators have explored alternative funding methods. This study aims to identify the strategies used by school administrators to obtain alternative sources of funding for their institutions and how these resources are allocated. In this study, a qualitative approach, specifically a case study design, was chosen to examine this issue in depth. Study participants were selected using purposive sampling methods to ensure maximum diversity, including school administrators and working parent-teacher association PTA presidents in project schools. Data analysis revealed two overarching themes related to school administration and one theme related to PTA, each with multiple categories. As a result of the analysis, the themes of school budget, school needs and student support were reached. According to the results of the study, the main problem faced by schools is financial shortage, and the strategies adopted by administrators vary depending on the type of school. Although alternative sources of financing are primarily aimed at meeting the physical infrastructure needs of schools, there are also efforts to improve students academic and social development. The study also highlighted that PTAs do not contribute significantly to school administrators in terms of alternative funding. They often depend on donations from students parents. This study highlights the key financial challenges faced by educational institutions and provides insight into the various strategies adopted by school administrators to address these challenges. This knowledge and improve students overall educational experience.

 Eğitimin maliyetlerinin ve eğitime olan talebin artması nedeniyle eğitimin ihtiyaç duyduğu finansman kaynakları yeterli olmamaya başlamıştır. Dünyadaki bütün ülkeler eğitim finansmanında yeni arayışlar içerisine girmektedir. Eğitim kurumları bu durumdan olumsuz olarak etkilenmektedir. Bu problemi çözmek için okul yöneticileri alternatif finansman arayışına girmiştir. Bu araştırma kapsamında okul yöneticilerinin okullarına alternatif finansmanı hangi yöntemlerle sağlamaya çalıştığı ve sağlanan kaynak ile hangi çalışmaların gerçekleştirildiğini belirlemek amaçlanmıştır. Bu amaç doğrultusunda araştırma, nitel araştırma yaklaşımlarından durum çalışması desenine uygun olarak tasarlanmıştır. Çalışma grubu, amaçlı örnekleme yöntemlerinden maksimum çeşitliliğe uygun olarak belirlenmiş ve proje okullarında görev yapan okul yöneticileri ile okul aile birliği başkanı olmak üzere 11 katılımcıdan oluşmaktadır. Araştırma verileri içerik analiziyle analiz edilmiştir. Analiz sonucunda okul bütçesi, okul ihtiyaçları ve öğrenci desteği temalarına ulaşılmıştır. Araştırma sonucu okullarda en sık yaşanan sorunlardan birinin finansman sorunu olduğu ve okul türlerine göre yöneticilerin bu sorunu çözme yöntemlerinin farklılık gösterdiği bulunmuştur. Okullara sağlanan alternatif finansman kaynakları öncelikle okulun fiziki ihtiyaçlarını gidermek için kullanılırken, öğrencilerin akademik ve sosyal gelişimlerini sağlamak için de çalışmalar yapılmaktadır. Araştırma sonuçlarına göre okul aile birlikleri alternatif finansman konusunda okul yöneticilerine fazla destek olamamakta ve genellikle öğrenci velilerinden bağış toplama çalışmaları gerçekleştirmektedir.
