research methodology: This article was a quantitative research in terms of approach, in terms of purpose, was among applied research and in terms of data collection in the design of operational model of library study and in the estimation of teachers as case study research. the statistical population and sample of the study included 358,897 teachers working in primary and low secondary school in the academic year 1398-99  (base year). The present research was conducted using previous documentary and field studies and analyzing the information and findings of those studies, in which the descriptive-analytical method critically interpreted and interpreted the data in order to obtain an estimate of the required number of teachers. In this study, while explaining the steps of the operational model of providing the required teachers, the number of elementary and low secondary school teachers in general and the courses according to class density and the number of classes required in three scenarios of average density Performance, maximum optimal student density and standard student density approved by the Higher Education Council up to the academic year1404-05 was estimated.
Findings: The average annual growth of primary teachers almost %1,25  and approximately 325,000  people in the years 1403-04 and the low secondary school teachers average annual growth of almost 2.7% and approximately 178,000people in the year 1404-05 was estimated.
Conclusion: Finally, with emphasis on the presented model and estimate, the results were counted which can be used to obtain appropriate mechanisms in the field of attracting teachers required for the general education course of the country in different ways (Graduates committed to service from Farhangian University, Article 28 Recruitments and etc...).
