The research was conducted using the relational survey model, one of the quantitative research methods. The population of the research consists of public schools of all levels and types in the province and districts of Mardin; the sample consists of 134 school administrators and 961 teachers working in these institutions during the 2022-2023 academic year. Criterion sampling and maximum variation sampling methods were used in determining the sample. The data related to the research were collected with three scales developed by the researcher. Opinions on the promotion regulation in the profession were found to be “moderately agree”; opinions on the school climate created by career steps were found to be “slightly agree”; and opinions on the performance of teachers promoted in career steps were found to be “moderately agree”. It was determined that participants' views on the promotion regulation in the profession differed significantly in terms of the method of obtaining a career, gender, educational status, job title, and career title variables. While there was a positive and “moderate” significant relationship between participants' perceptions of the promotion regulation in the profession and their perceptions of the school climate, there was also a positive and “moderate” significant relationship between their perceptions of the promotion regulation and teacher performance. It was found that the promotion regulation in the profession is a significant predictor of both the school climate and teacher performance. At the end of the research, it was seen that the promotion regulation in the profession is an important practice in terms of school climate and teacher performance. Based on this finding, it is deemed necessary to implement the advancement in career steps in the form of training based on professional and personal development rather than being exam-based, and to improve the personal rights according to the titles in the career steps. © (2025), (T.C.
