A report based on monitoring of

109 Boys' Secondary Schools across Pakistan in November 2011

FAFENEducation Institution Monitor

December 2011

Issue: 081/December 2011

Boys' secondary schools needmore scientific apparatus, librariesand playgroundsLibraries, playgrounds and apparatus for science experiments were found lacking in some of the 109 boys' secondary schools monitored nationwide in November, reflecting negligence of the relevant authorities towards learning and recreational facilities that are a vital part of secondary education.

Nearly two-fifths of the schools monitored in November did not have libraries. It is important that students be encouraged to read books other than those prescribed by the syllabus to explore and further develop academic as well as non-academic interests and broaden their horizons. More than a fifth (22%) schools did not have apparatus for science experiments meaning that students are unable to see evidence of the scientific theories taught in classes. It is highly probable that comprehension of these subjects is compromised because of such shortcomings. A third of the monitored schools did not have playgrounds and nearly a quarter of them did not have serving Physical Training Instructors (PTIs).

On the other hand, conditions of physical infrastructure were well met as at least 85% of 109 boys secondary schools monitored were housed in buildings, had boundary walls, electricity, and fans, were well lit, and had chairs and tables for teachers as well as black/white boards. A similar proportion was found to be clean. However, there were no sanitary workers in 27% schools, hinting at the possibility of students sharing cleaning duties.

Good student-to-teacher ratios were observed in the monitored schools where on average, a class of not more than 28 students was assigned to one teacher. Attendance levels were also good with teachers' attendance falling between 76% and 100% in 101 schools. The same level of attendance was maintained by students in 94 schools.

With regard to appointments made against sanctioned posts for teaching and non-teaching staff, 334 teaching posts and 136 non-teaching positions were lying vacant nationwide. All schools provided information on teaching posts, while 108 did so for non-teaching positions.

Detailed Findings

FAFEN Governance Monitors visited 109 boys' secondary schools in 68 districts across the country. Forty six schools were monitored in 27 districts in Punjab, 32 in 22 districts in KP, 26 in 14 districts in Sindh, two in as many districts in both Balochistan and Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA), while one school was monitored in Islamabad Capital Territory (ICT).

Monitoring Methodology

The Free and Fair Election Network (FAFEN) has launched a nationwide initiative to monitor governance processes under its Supporting Transparency Accountability and Electoral Processes in Pakistan as part of its mandate to strengthen all forms of democratic accountabilities in Pakistan. Objective information about governance processes is vital to encourage informed engagement of citizenry with elected and public institutions for progressive outputs. FAFEN Governance Monitoring aims at enriching the public discourse and debate on governance and developing research-based recommendations for reforms.

FAFEN advocates for transparency, accountability, responsiveness, representativeness and public participation as essential elements of democratic governance to enhance the output, efficiency and effectiveness of all elected and public institutions.

FAFEN Governance Monitors visit schools and colleges, heath facilities, police stations and other public institutions to monitor and evaluate their efficiency and efficacy in 200 National Assembly constituencies of 119 districts in Punjab, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Balochistan, Sindh, Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA) and Islamabad Capital Territory (ICT). In addition, FAFEN is also monitoring complaints handling mechanisms of various public institutions to gauge their effectiveness.

Trained FAFEN Governance Monitors fill out standardized checklists during their monitoring visits, employing interviewing and observation techniques, and then transmit the data to the FAFEN Secretariat in Islamabad for data entry, cleaning and analysis. FAFEN plans to produce monthly thematic reports such as this one. This information will also contribute to FAFEN Bi-Annual State of Governance in Pakistan Reports.

FAFEN Governance Monitoring reports are based on non-probability sampling, and their findings should not be considered national or provincial generalizations. However, FAFEN's outreach across the country allows it to access most districts as well as urban and rural areas. Standardized methodology is applied across Pakistan to draw information in a uniform way through observation and interviewing. The observation and interviews are recorded on a standardized checklist. All information received at the FAFEN Secretariat is verified through multiple sources for authenticity and accuracy. These reports provide data analysis and inferences only for the monitored institutions within the sample. These reports are meant to present to relevant stakeholders a consolidated and current snapshot of the state of governance in public institutions in order to inspire public dialogue and as a contribution towards targeted interventions and reforms.

However, FAFEN's unique methodology to assess and evaluate governance processes continues to evolve. Any inaccuracies that may be noticed in the data or suggestions for improvement in the methodology can be sent to the email address at the end of this report.

1. Students-per-Teacher

On average, one teacher was assigned to 28 students in the 109 boys' secondary schools that were monitored. This is a good ratio, since the number of students is low enough to guarantee adequate individual attention to all students. In the monitored schools in all regions except Punjab, where 30 students were the responsibility of one teacher, the student-to-teacher ratios were lower than the national average of 28, i.e. on average, less than 28 students were the responsibility of a single teacher in these regions.

4.1 Appointment of Teaching Staff

All of the monitored schools shared information on appointments made against positions sanctioned for teachers. All 34 posts were filled in ICT however, 160 posts were vacant in Punjab, 118 in Sindh, 52 in KP, and two each in Balochistan and FATA.

Table 4.1: Appointment of Teaching Staff

5. Government Oversight

Ninety visits were made by elected representatives and government officials to the monitored schools. One visit was made by a Member of National Assembly (MNA) in Punjab, and four by Members of Provincial Assembly (MPAs) – three in Punjab and one in KP. In addition, other elected representatives (ex-nazims etc.) made eight visits – four in Punjab and two each in KP and Sindh. Forty visits were made by the Executive District Officer/Education (EDO/Education) and 36 by other government officials.

Table 5: Government Oversight

6. Physical Infrastructure

At least 85% of all monitored schools were housed in buildings, had boundary walls, electricity, and fans, were well lit, and had chairs and tables for teachers as well as black/white boards. A similar proportion of them were clean. However, sanitary workers were not present in 27% schools, meaning that students were possibly sharing cleaning duties. Nearly two-fifths of the schools monitored in November did not have libraries. These comprised all schools in FATA, at least two-fifths in Sindh, KP and Balochistan and 17% in Punjab. It is important that students be encouraged to read books other than those prescribed by the syllabus to explore and further develop academic and non-academic interests and broaden their horizons. The lack of libraries is a serious issue that deprives students of a well-rounded educational experience.

More than a fifth (22%) of the monitored schools did not have apparatus for science experiments meaning they are unable to see evidence of scientific theories taught in classes. It is highly probable that comprehension of these subjects is compromised due to such shortcomings. One out of two schools monitored in both FATA and Balochistan did not have the necessary apparatus for science experiments. On the other hand, more than a third (35%) schools in Punjab, a quarter in KP and 15% in Sindh were without such equipment.

A third of the monitored schools did not have playgrounds – 15 in KP, 12 in Sindh, seven in Punjab and one each in FATA and Balochistan,showing neglect of an activity necessary for a sound mind and body. Nearly a quarter of the monitored schools – 13 in Sindh, 10 in Punjab, two in Balochistan and one in KP did not have serving Physical Training Instructors (PTIs). There were no staff-rooms for teachers in 30 of the monitored schools – 16 in Punjab, eight in KP, four in Sindh and one each in Balochistan and FATA. In 25 schools, the attendances of teachers and students were not displayed at prominent places. Of these, 10 each were in Punjab and Sindh, four in KP and one in Balochistan.

More than a fifth of all monitored schools did not have desks and benches/chairs for students – 12 in Punjab, six in KP, three in Sindh and two in Balochistan. Fifteen schools did not have arrangements for clean drinking water – seven in Sindh, five in KP and one each in Punjab, Balochistan and FATA.
