Devolution in education from provinces to district was a major shift in governance system in Pakistan. The devolved system
of education revolved around the political leadership of the district, District Nazim who was an elected representative. This
study explored the level of understanding of District Nazims’ regarding their role in the devolved system, the policy of
decentralization in education, the problems they had been facing and the strategies they adopted to address those problems.
The study used a qualitative interpretative research design employing semi-structured interviews. The questions were
developed on the roles and responsibilities of District Nazim as given in the decentralization document. The results of the
study showed that the level of their understandings was pretty much associated with the academic qualifications. Moreover,
they needed training in identifying and resolving the problems at their districts. They also need education and training to
decentralize powers to lower levels of district management.
