This is a qualitative research and “interview method” was used. Descriptive analysis was used in the analysis of the data obtained in this research. In the research results, it was found out that there were some teachers and principals who stated that the compulsory secondary education is right and there were some who stated that it is wrong. They stated that, the transition process was fast, no planning was done, education quality was affected in negative way in high schools, schools were qualified with necessary physical infrastructure and technological equipments, curricula were up-to-date, students were under control thanks to the compulsory secondary education, there would be lack of intermediate staff in the industry and open high school education was necessary. In line with the results obtained in the research, it was suggested not to keep the transition process too short while transitioning to a new education system and to give the teachers and the principals necessary in-service training and information about the changes.
