This study aims at determining the level of organizational culture at Arab secondary schools in Jerusalem as viewed by administrators and teachers, and was undertaken in 2011. A cluster sample of 21 schools was chosen; 42 administrators and 294 teachers responded to a 61-item validity and reliablity questionnaire.

Results also showed no significant differences in respondents' perspectives due to gender, qualification, and years of experience; whereas there were significant differences in those perspectives due to job and supervising body.
