Purpose: The aim of this study was to provide a model of effective schools based on learning organization (Case study: elementary schools in Tehran).Methodology: The method of the present study was a combination (qualitative and quantitative) using the grounded theory method and the structural equation model using the quantitative method. The statistical population of the study was in the qualitative section of university professors specializing in primary education and in the quantitative section of elementary teachers in Tehran in 2019. A total of 12 sample members in the qualitative section were selected by university professors and 196 students from 22 primary education teachers in Tehran by multi-stage cluster sampling method. The research tool was a semi-structured interview and a researcher-made questionnaire. The data were analyzed in the qualitative part using the grounded theory of exploratory theory and then by testing the structural equation model in Smart PLS and SPSS software.Findings: Results showed that twelve components are involved in providing a model of effective schools based on learning organization (Case study: elementary schools in Tehran) which in order of priority are: teacher competencies, educational policies, human resource empowerment, the above activities Program, establishment of teaching and learning system, competencies of managers, technological facilities, foresight, innovative methods and tools, promotion of health, school health and safety, belief in collective wisdom, management and leadership, as components and indicators affecting the presentation The model of effective schools is based on the learning organization in primary schools in Tehran.
