Musiki Muallim Mektebi (1924-1937)
School of Music Teachers (1924-1937)

Summary/Abstract: The aim of the present study is to briefly talk about the historical process of the School of Music Teachers (Musiki Muallim), a teacher school that opened in 1924 and educated music teachers, and to provide information about the school’s administrative structure, number of its students and its educational activities. Teacher Training schools were inherited from the Ottoman Empire to the Republic. Even though there were teacher training schools in the Ottoman Empire that educated teachers for primary and secondary education levels, there was no school that educated music teachers. After the proclamation of the Republic, an institution called Music School was launched for the first time in order to train music teachers. This school continued to operate as a branch of the National Music and Representation Academy in 1934 and as part of the Veterans Training Institute in 1937. The present study was generated within the framework of the knowledge and information provided by copyright works, state statistics and regulations, and document analysis, which is one of the qualitative research methods, was used as a method of analysis.
