The most important role in the success of the curriculum in the education system belongs to teachers. The socio-economic conditions of teachers affects on the one hand the choice of profession and on the other hand their performance. In this context, the survey results that conducted with 270 teachers in Anatolian and Science high schools in Denizli have been analyzed. The results obtained are as follows: (1) The teaching profession is mostly preferred by family members especially with low levels of income and education. (2) There is a general consensus about the level of wages are low and the rise in wages will increase the performance. (3) The low level of wages negatively affects teachers’ spending for their personal development. (4) The lowness in income and education levels of parents of students weakens the student- teacher-parent relationship in solving problems of students and increasing their achievements. (5) It can be expressed that the Anatolian high schools and science schools entrance scores, the student-teacher ratio and the happiness and motivation levels of teachers are the most important factors.
