The research used SPSS20 to analyse raw data and then Lisrel8.56 software to analyse the structural equatiion model. The findings of the statistical analysis showed that the impact work culture on innovative behavior and oganizational performance of teachers is positive and meaningfull. The causal model designed based on structural equation model was fitted. the GFI equelled to 0.90 and the remaining root mean squares in the latent variable model equalled to 0.065. as a result, the structural equation model of work culture had a effective impact on the innovative behavior and organizational performance of Ardabil primary teachers.
