Abstract

Purpose: Kindergarten is a place for care, talent recognition, emotional, physical, intellectual, behavioral (social) speech development and development of children's creativity in preschool age. Today, preschool education has become more important and sensitive than ever.
Methodology:This study was applied in terms of purpose and combined in terms of method and nature. The statistical population of this study consisted of three parts: one by experts and cultural experts of the Welfare Organization and the second part included all managers and educators of kindergartens in Iran and the third children's families in 2015. - They were 2014-15. 15 people in the qualitative part of the analysis were selected using Delphi method and in the quantitative part 384 people were selected as the sample using Cochran's formula. The research measurement tools were three inrich family satisfaction questionnaires (1997), Fordais happiness (1997), and Dachanchi children's adjustment (1998), which was used. To measure the validity of the questionnaires, Cronbach's alpha was calculated from the content method and to determine its reliability, the value was estimated to be 0.891 for the parent questionnaire, 0.841 for the managers 'and experts' questionnaire and 0.926 for the teacher's questionnaire. Data analysis was performed using correlation and regression tests to answer the questions, t-test was two samples and analysis of variance was used to compare the mean responsiveness of independent groups using 23SPSS software.
Findings: The results of Kolmogorov-Smirnov test showed that the research data are normal distribution. Also, the results of analysis of variance and independent t-test and correlation and regression test showed that the performance of educators has a significant effect on parental satisfaction and children's adjustment; also, the performance of educators has a significant effect on the performance of kindergartens, and finally, the performance of educators has a significant effect on the profitability of kindergartens.
Conclusion: Based on this, the performance management model of educators is a comprehensive, complete and new plan in kindergartens in Iran, which has a positive effect on parental satisfaction, kindergarten performance, kindergarten profitability and children's adaptation to this environment.
