Analyzing the Role of Private Colleges in Developing the Effective Education System in Pakistan

Private Colleges are a vital source of quality education. They are producing intellectual and
responsible students as the students are evaluated continuously. Therefore, they strive to perform
better and to obtain good result. A sizeable number of citizens criticize private colleges for charging
high fees and dues, but they never acknowledged the efforts in developing their children’s
educational competencies and learning abilities. The main inspiration of this study was to analyze
the role of private colleges in developing the effective educational system in the district Rahim Yar
Khan. A quantitative approach was used, with data being collected through questionnaire on five
point Likert Scale. The questionnaire was administered upon the sample of 300 respondents
(100 teachers and 200 students) from seven private colleges. The Statistical Package for Social
Sciences (SPSS version 19) was employed to analyze the collected data. A number of descriptive
statistics including Chi Square, mean, standard deviation and percentage were calculated.
