PAKISTAN DISTRICTEDUCATION RANKINGS2016 The Pakistan District Education Rankings 2016 is the fourth annual iteration for tracking progress and comparing the various regions of Pakistan based on their performance. The rankings aim to help understand the state of education in Pakistan and call attention to the evidence of a deep and persistent national crisis. Alif Ailaan and SDPI aim to instigate the public debate on education in the country. Similar to past years the rankings will assess both educational outcomes and educational inputs (infrastructure) by comparing the relative performance of different regions. It should enable us to revisit the challenges from previous years; and identify the positive trends and opportunities that can be leveraged to improve education outcomes.
The rankings use updated statistics to produce a measure of education standards in every district of the country. For this purpose, publicly available data from all 151 districts and agencies are collected to generate two types of scores:
1. The first, an education outcome based rankings measure performance on access (enrolment), learning (test scores), retention (survival rates up till Class 5) and gender parity (equity).
2. The second, measures performance on educational inputs, mainly the availability of basic school level infrastructure (boundary wall, drinking water, electricity, toilet and satisfactory building condition).
Each district, agency, province and region is then scored on a scale of 0 to 100 and ranked with highest score getting the top rank starting from one.
How the rankings work?
n For the fourth consecutive year, Islamabad has ranked highest amongst all provinces and regions in the country
n In second and third place are Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK) and the Punjab, respectively. This remained similar to last year
n Gilgit-Baltistan remained steady at fourth position third time in a row, although its Education Score did increase by three points
n Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) and Sindh remained at the same ranks they were last year, with KP at the fifth rank and Sindh at the sixth. However, both provinces suffered a decline in their Education Scores of almost two points each
n Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA) and Balochistan round up the bottom of the rankings at rank seven and eight respectively
n Overall, Pakistan’s Education Score fell from last year (by 4.05 points) after consecutive years of modest improvement mainly because of a drop in the retention score (from 67 to 59)
Education Score
Khyber Pakhtunkhwa
n Although KP remained in the same position as last year, its score reduced, mainly due to reduction in retention and gender parity scores
n Three districts: Malakand, Mardan and Haripur are ranked in the top 25
n Tank and Kohistan are ranked in the bottom 25. Last year, KP didn’t have any district in the bottom 25 ranks
n Malakand (8th) is the best performing district in the province, while Kohistan is the worst performing district (at 148th rank)
n 21 of 25 districts scored above 50 on the Education Score
Sindhn Similar to last year, Karachi (43rd rank) is the
only district from Sindh that managed to get into the top 50 districts
n Thatta was again the worst performing district in the province, largely due to a low retention score
n Overall 19 out of 24 districts scored over 50 in Education Scores
n The overall, largest decrease in learning scores has been seen in Sindh this year
Azad Jammu and Kashmirn All ten districts in AJK are ranked in the top 40.
Moreover, AJK is the only region where every district scored above 70
n The highest ranked district in AJK is Kotli (third), followed by Mirpur (tenth)
n Incidentally despite high Education Scores each year, AJK lags behind in Infrastructure Scores. None of the districts from AJK ranked in top 90 districts
Balochistann Majority districts of Balochistan rank outside the
top 100 (27 out of 32). Whereas eight of the bottom ten districts are from Balochistan
n Gwadar at 58th and Quetta at 59th rank are the highest ranked districts from Balochistan
n Only eight of the 31 ranked districts in Balochistan scored above 50 on the Education Score. No district could score above a 70
n Dera Bugti (at 144th rank) is the worst performing district in Balochistan
Federally Administered Tribal Areasn Five out of the 11 ranked agencies and frontier
regions in FATA have positions below the top 100
n The worst ranked district also belongs to FATA (FR Lakki Marwat at 145th rank)
n Seven out of 13 districts in FATA scored above 50, explaining the increase in overall rank for the region

n Only one district (Diamir) appears out of the top half, and the only one with a score less than 60
n Ghizer is the highest ranked district in GB at 19th rank while the lowest ranked district is Hunza Nagar at 53rd rank
n Three new districts Kharmang, Nagar and Shigar do not have sufficient data to be ranked
Punjabn Punjab continues to dominate the top of the
rankings table. Six districts from the province are in the top ten
n None of the districts scored lower than 50. Rajanpur is only district from Punjab to rank outside the top 100
n Only four districts in Punjab scored higher than 70 in learning scores, reflecting poor quality of education
