Private Sector Educational Institutions: Evaluating Their Role in Promoting Quality Education In Tehsil Wari, Upper Dir, Pakistan
Abstract
This study investigates parental views regarding the role of private educational institutions in promoting education in Tehsil Wari, District Dir Upper, Pakistan. The goal is to evaluate and quantify these institutions' contributions to the local education system. A quantitative study approach is used, by taking a sample size of 795 parents whose children are studying in these private schools. Data gathered from a random sample of 260 parents via systematic questionnaires and processed using SPSS-27, with results given in tabular form. The findings indicate that private educational institutions significantly contribute to ensuring quality education in Tehsil Wari. Most parents expressed satisfaction with the services provided by these private institutions, affirming their crucial role in supplementing public education and identifying areas for further improvement. The study recommends that private sector stakeholders should strengthen collaboration with parents by establishing parent-teacher councils and involving them in yearly action plans and other school activities. This could enhance the effectiveness of these institutions and improve the quality of education. This study provides new insights to highlight the impact of private educational institutions in Tehsil Wari, addressing a gap in the literature on the role these institutions play in enhancing educational quality and accessibility. The findings offer valuable implications for policymakers and suggest directions for further research.
