The study was designed to inspect the impact of part-time employment on the academic performance of government secondary school students in district Peshawar, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. The core objectives of the study were to look into its causes, impact and to find out the number of students doing part-time employment. This descriptive study aimed to investigate the impact of part-time employment on the academic performance of students at secondary level. It was conducted in 106 high and higher secondary schools of district Peshawar. The part-time employed 378 students and concerned 320 teachers were taken from those schools as sample. Questionnaires comprising fifty two questions were designed to get the opinions of both teachers and students. The data was tabulated, analyzed and interpreted. The collected data was examined with the help of the software SPSS version16 by using percentages, Phi and Cramer’s V. The analysis of data revealed that fathers of the part-time employed students were doing blue collar jobs; some of them were, either jobless, died, or ill. Most of the students started their paid part-time employment at adolescence as apprentices with only one day leave in a week for fulfillment of their economic needs and for continuation of their studies. Students believed that they felt tired, and was absent minded during classes as well as they remained absent from their classes, and the major cause of all of them was part-time employment. Most of the students had no time for completing easily their class room assignments and for participating in cocurricular activities. Majority of the teachers responded that poverty was the main cause of doing part-time employment at secondary level; it developed sense of deprivation, carelessness and inferiority complex etc. in students. Majority of the teachers suggested as alternatives that government should provide funds, introduce new institutes for providing vocational/technical trainings and philanthropist of the society should be involved to help such students. A number of recommendations were made to improve the current situation.

دار العلوم دیو بند کی تعلیمی و عصری خدمات کا تنقیدی مطالعہ

Purpose of the study was to reflect great contributions of Dar ul Uloom Deouband. After the end of Independence War 1857, three factors endangered the Muslims of India religiously and educationally. Firstly, the Christian missionaries who thought that after the political downfall Muslims would convert themselves to Christianity. Secondly, the missionaries were proclaiming blasphemy about Islam and the Holy Prophet Muhammad Sallalaho Alaha Wasalam. In this regard, William Mure wrote a notorious blasphemous book about which Sir Syed said, “Alas! We like to die.” Thirdly, in these circumstances the doubts of Muslims were increasing that Muslim may not be converted to Christianity but it may create hatred from Islamic ideology.  Just to cope up with these dangers, various educational movements came into being; one of them is Deouband Movement. As a result of the efforts by Dar ul Uloom Deouband, Muslims were able to save their Din and eman.

The Role of Professional Development Teachers Pdt in Whole School Development Programme

Recently, the majority of literature on school effectiveness and school improvement, has tend to focus on whole school issues and whole school approaches to improve students' outcomes. The idea of whole school improvement approach was emerged after long time researches on the reasons of failure of different school improvement projects that worked in piecemeal, and in fragmented approaches to school reform. Meanwhile, researchers continue to pursue better understandings of how, whole school improvement can be achieved in order to foster the improvement of schools as per the students, outcomes. Reflecting on these international efforts, it is surprisingly that little is known about how external facilitators facilitate play a major role and use activities when working with schools, what challenges they face and which strategies they use. This research study explored, complexity of the role of professional development teachers (as external facilitators) by presenting case study of the role of PDTs in the whole school improvement programme, in the northern area Pakistan. This research paper describes the strategies and activities used by PDTs when working with the schools. Further, this research study discusses some outcomes of the work of PDTs after one year of intervention. Furthermore, this research study identified some of the factors that restricted or supported the role of the PDTs in both government and community school context. Lastly, there are suggestions and recommendations, which needs to be worked on, for the improvement, of the work of PDTs in facilitating the whole school improvement programme. Though the research conducted on the northern area of Pakistan, the findings are mostly applicable to the context of the developing countries. The contextual realities such as lack of resources, unavailability of fund and cultural barriers are few factors affecting the school improvement program, throughout the developing countries.
