Pundits of education believe that quality and effectiveness in education requires the existence of educational groups in all areas regarding teaching-learning processes. This needs especially acute when education undergoes fundamental changes, because educational groups play an essential role in guiding and enhancing teaching-learning processes and making desirable changes in educational systems. Hence, the performance of educational groups, active in the field of education, is considered as part of quality assurance programs and the effectiveness of education for the purpose of improvement and growth of teachers'' professions. The performance of educational groups in providing educational services to teachers is a way for their professional growth and improvement in order to achieve the basic benefits (vision, value, mission, goals, etc.) of education, i.e. to enhance teachers’ performance quality and consequently the growth and development of the educational system. School educational groups, as a link related to educational factors, teachers and students have a sympathetic and special place in achieving educational goals. Wu & Short (1996) believe that education as one of the most significant social institutions plays a pivotal role in longevity and development of each society through teaching children and future-makers of that society. Among them, teachers as human resources and implementers of education and training programs are its essential elements, and their performance plays a major role in the success of this institution. Therefore, in trying to improve the quality of education, more focus should be placed on teachers and the organizational aspects that affect their work in schools. This is based on an assumption that understanding the factors affecting teacher performance increases our knowledge of how schools improve.

Present study is a practical research on the basis of purpose and is a type of descriptive-correlative researches on the basis of data collection method.

The statistical population of this study includes all primary and secondary first and second school teachers (n=3100, m=1426, f=1674) in the school year 2017-18. Given the assumed methods, 9 parameters should be estimated, including 3 parameters in gamma matrix, 2 parameters in beta matrix, 3 parameters in WiFi matrix and 1 parameter in Sai matrix. Accordingly, the sample size should be at least 5 to 50 times more than the desired parameters (Müller, 1996).  Based on the number of parameters existing in the model, a sample of 200 people was selected using stratified random sampling. They included 200 primary and secondary first and second school teachers in Babol (m=82, 41%; f=118, 59%). In the study sample, the average effectiveness of school education groups (M = 3.918) in a range of 5 points shows that the sample teachers evaluated the effectiveness of school educational groups above the average level. Also, the average knowledge sharing, intra-group trust and intra-group cooperation were estimated above average. All the teachers of study sample completed the questionnaires of knowledge sharing, in-group trust, intra-group collaboration and effectiveness of school educational groups. In order to test the reliability of these instruments, Cronbach’s alpha was used. The data was analyzed through structural equation model and by SPSS and LISREL software.

The findings showed that there is a positive and significant relationship between knowledge sharing, in-group trust and intra-group collaboration with effectiveness of school educational groups. Knowledge sharing has a direct and significant effect on effectiveness of educational groups. Also, knowledge sharing with mediating the in-group trust has an indirect and significant effect on effectiveness of school educational groups.
