The research aimed to identify the obstacles application of alternative evaluation strategies from the point of view of the teachers of the first cycle in the schools of the city of Hama, and ways to solve them. A questionnaire was used on a sample of (160) teachers with the analytical descriptive curriculum. The results showed that the degree of these obstacles availability was high. The most appropriate solution to overcome these obstacles was (increasing the material and moral incentives for applying the alternative calendar), and the least of them was (reducing the number of learners in the class). It was found that there were no statistically significant differences between the mean scores of the sample on the questionnaire according to the school type variable, while the differences were statistically significant on the questionnaire according to the educational qualification variable, in favor of the higher academic qualification. and according to the variable of training courses, in favor of those who did not follow any training courses, and according to the variable of years of service (for more than 10 years).
