The universe of the study consists of 4097 primary school teachers working in 124 primary schools in Şahinbey district of Gaziantep province.

The research data was collected through the "Instructional Behaviors Scale" developed by Şişman (2016) and the "Learning Organization Scale in Schools" developed by Bil (2018). When analyzing the data, analysis methods such as arithmetic mean, standard deviation, Pearson Product Moment Correlation analysis and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) were used. It has been determined that there is a strong, positively significant relationship between the instructional leadership behaviors of the principals and the perceptions of the teachers' learning organizations. In addition, according to the structural equation modeling analysis of the learning organization level of instructional leadership behaviors, it was concluded that the teaching leadership behaviors are a strong fatigue of the learning organization. In this context, it may be proposed to increase the practices for the development of instructional leadership skills of school principals in order for educational organizations to become learning organizations.
