Analyzing the teachers’ lived experiences from the recent changes created in the evaluation system of the educational achievements in the primary schools has provided a proper background to promote the evaluation system of the educational achievements. This study aims at exploring and analyzing the teachers' reactions to the changes created in the evaluation system of the educational achievements in the primary schools. The present study has been conducted on the basics and principles of the qualitative approach of the interpretive phenomenology, with the participation of 14 male and female teachers teaching in the district two in Tehran based on the purposeful sampling and through using the semi-structured interviews and was finally analyzed based on the method of Diekelman et al. (1989). The results showed that teachers generally have no positive attitude towards the nature of the descriptive evaluation. From the teachers’ point of view, the changes in the evaluation system has created a situation in which the education system has employed a demanding and increasing expectations on the teachers leading to the formation of the negative opinions towards the teachers in the society. Teachers' perceptions and reactions to these changes in the evaluation system has been summarized in three main theme: "professional competencies", "problems in the education system” and "expectations of the education system" and also in nine sub theme. It seems that the focus and interest in making changes, regardless of the conditions of change, and especially the appropriateness of change with organizational maturity, have brought various and varied challenges to the educational system and its continuity can have devastating effects on all components of the educational system.

Sampling was done through targeted sampling and continued to saturation (22 articles). In order to determine the content validity of the experts, the Holstein coefficient was used to assess the reliability (0/818). In a quantitative, descriptive-survey method, an initial questionnaire was first made and the content validity of the questionnaire was verified by 10 professors and experts. Its reliability is also 0.85 by Cronbach's alpha. The final questionnaire after the implementation was analyzed among the students of technical and vocational schools with SPSS19 software. The sample size was considered to be 384 in Cochran's formula. The results showed two main components that the role of knowledge component (t=12.3365, p <0.01) and skill component (t = 229.5 and p <0.01) were too moderate in terms of technology-related curriculum.
