The population of qualitative research included university professors in the academic year 2021-22 who were selected by purposive sampling method based on the principle of theoretical saturation 16 people. In the quantitative part of the research, the statistical population included the managers of Ardabil province, of which 300 people were selected by random sampling method. The research tools were semi-structured interviews in the qualitative part and questionnaires in the quantitative part. To validate the findings in the qualitative part from the perspective of experts and reliability, the coefficient of agreement between the coders was used. In a small part, the face value and reliability with Cronbach's alpha was 89%. Coding was used for analysis in the qualitative part and structural equation method with Pls Smart software was used in the quantitative part.
Findings: The results showed that 237 initial codes, 32 axial codes were identified in the form of causal, contextual, intervening, strategies and consequences. Causal conditions were strong predictors (Aston-Geiser scale equal to 0.521) for effective school management. Also, the variables of contextual conditions, effective school management and intervention conditions are strong predictors (Aston-Geiser scale equal to 0.732) for the variable of strategies and strategies are also strong predictors (Aston-Geiser scale equal to 0.672) for the outcome variable. Effective management of schools.
