To meet the educational needs of inmates, educational scholars of the world have
attempted numerous strategies and interventions designs to facilitate learning and to
improve achievement. The real function of a prison is to help develop better citizens, not
just better inmates.
Therefore, the present study was designed to investigate the educational needs of
inmate’s prisons. The objective of study was to assess the educational needs of inmates of
prisons through distance education. The sample of the study comprised of 57 inmates of
graduation/master level available in the jail at the time of survey adopting cluster
technique. Data collected through questionnaires was tabulated and descriptively analyzed
according to 5 point Likert scale. With the help of summary obtained from Likert scale
analysis, mean was calculated. The study revealed that majority of inmates was interested
in further education above their obtained level. It was concluded that the inmates give too
much importance to education. It was recommended that non-formal wing of Ministry of
Education may include prisons while allocating funds for non-formal education and
establishment of non-formal basic education schools in prisons. It was further suggested
for Allama Iqbal Open University to extend its facilities for prisons to meet his motto “the
education at door step”.
