Abstract :This study was conducted to reveal the problems faced by school administrators working in boarding schools, the solutions administrators suggest for these problems and to provide suggestions to policy makers. The research was conducted with a single embedded case study, which is one of the qualitative research designs. Data were obtained through interviews with administrators working in boarding schools. The data collected in semi-structured interviews were analysed by content analysis method. As a result of the analysis, it was revealed that boarding schools have different problems from other schools in terms of education and management and that these schools should be evaluated as separate institutions. In addition, the workload and negative feelings that boarding schools cause in administrators and teachers will decrease with the separation of dormitories from schools as a separate unit and the appointment of the necessary administrators and personnel.
