The current study investigates the components of the public secondary school organizational culture. A conceptual model of the components of organizational culture based on a literature review was tested using AMOS 21 software for secondary public schools. The results show that individualism vs. collectivism (IVC) (b=0.916), uncertainty prevention (UA) (b=0.99) and learning culture (LC) (b=1.00) have a significant and positive impact on the organizational culture (OC) of public schools. There is, however, no significant relationship between the type of culture and the organizational culture. Schools need to promote research and dialogue and empower people to develop a culture of learning.
