Comparative Analysis of Quality Teaching and Management Practices in Pre-PSSP and Post-PSSP in District Lodhran, Punjab

Abstract

    The Punjab Education Sector Reform Program (PSSP) was implemented in 2012 to improve the quality of education in public schools in Punjab, Pakistan. This study aims to compare the quality of teaching and management practices in public schools in Lodhran before and after the implementation of PSSP. The nature of the study was descriptive, while a survey was used to gather information from 250 PSSP school teachers out of 14 schools in Lodhran. The results showed significant improvements in the quality of teaching and management practices after implementing PSSP. Teachers reported feeling more supported and better equipped to teach, with increased access to professional development opportunities and teaching resources. School principals reported improved management practices, including better financial management, effective leadership, and accountability. The findings suggest that PSSP has positively impacted the quality of teaching and management practices in public schools in Lodhran.
