        The present study is qualitative research with a phenomenological approach that has been conducted to identify the dimensions and components of professional development of primary school principals and to develop its framework. The statistical population of the study was the principals of public primary schools in Tehran in the academic year of 2019-2020. In two stages of sampling, samples were selected by quota and then purposive sampling methods. Semi-structured interviews were used to collect data. The interview continued until the data exploration and data collection process reached a theoretical saturation point after interviewing 14 people. Data were analyzed by open and axial coding steps. Two methods of verifying the interviewees and verifying an external expert were used to control the validity. Two methods of verifying the interviewees and verifying an external expert were used to control the validity. To determine the reliability, two methods of reviewing the writings and also the method of recoding were used. The agreement was calculated in the coding homogeneity and the agreement coefficient was 86%. Findings showed that the professional development framework for primary school principals has 3 dimensions, 14 components with 117 indicators which include: the content dimension of professional development (with components of general management knowledge, specialized management knowledge, interactive skills, resource management skills, professional skills, personal inclinations, managerial attitude, physical and mental ability and intellectual ability), the dimension of the professional development process (with the components of self-development actions and developer relations) and the dimension of organizational requirements (with the components of knowledge acquisition and acquisition of skills, modification of selection and appointment methods of managers, improvement of organizational structure and processes).

        This study was conducted to design and validate the conceptual model of competence of high school principals in Tehran. For this purpose, a qualitative and quantitative mixed method was used. In the qualitative section, a purposive sample of 17 faculty members, department heads of the Ministry of Education, and some school principals who potentially had the most information about principals' competence were selected. Individuals' views were obtained through semi-structured interviews and open, axial and selective coding was used to analyze the data. The results of the analysis were extracted into 6 main categories including core phenomena, causal factors, contextual factors, interfering factors, strategies and outcomes, and 17 general categories that were addressed in the study. Based on the findings of the qualitative part, a researcher-made questionnaire was designed and was conducted to a sample of 336 secondary school principals in Tehran. Results in quantitative section showed that impact factor values in manager competency measurement model, causal factors- core phenomena (0.137); contextual factors- core phenomena (0.818); interfering factors-core phenomena (0.162); core phenomena- strategies (0.877) and strategies-outcomes (0.896) are desirable. On the other hand, the value of t corresponding to each coefficient is greater than its critical value (1.96) at the significant level of 0.05. Finally, the competency model consisted of factors and components affecting the competence of secondary school principals as a framework and practice guide for education practitioners to select principals.
