This study aims to discuss the self-governance which is a very important element of local government units in the light of judicial decisions. As we know, our country is considered as a centralist state in many bodies of literature and evaluations. The relation between this evaluation and our study originates from the inversely proportional relationship between centralism and local self-government. In other words, as the centralist implementations increase, self-governing structure of local governments is eroded and becomes vague. At this point, judicial decisions undertake a crucial function and can become a position of a mechanism providing balance with respect to centralism and local self-government. In other words, judicial decisions can be the assurance of local self-government against centralism. However, the main problem of this study is upon revealing that judicial decisions regarding our country cannot have the exact balance function between centralism and local self-government and stating the reasons of this situation

The grounded theory method was adopted in the present study, and the data collection, coding, analyzing processes, as well as category and theme creation processes, were all conducted accordingly. The data were analyzed by using NVivo 7 qualitative data analysis software. The findings showed that the expectancies of education union board members could be explained through 21 themes (e.g., value, communication ability, and special education knowledge) and 82 categories (e.g., freedom, democracy, creativity, philosophy of art knowledge, and initial teacher education) that formed them.
