Updating From El capitan

I am not able to update a 2009 Macbook pro with any newer operating system, stuck with El Capitan. How do I go about getting a newer OS?

MacBook Pro 13″, OS X 10.11

As you have already said you cannot upgrade your mac to a newer OS,

a 2009 MBP can only upgrade as far as Mac OS X El Capitan 10.11.6.

To get a newer OS you will need to buy another mac, either second hand

or a new mac which will probably come with the latest macOS Big Sur.
