areas of Pakistan by using survey and case study method. Thirty private secondary schools were operational in Kurram
Agency. The population of 30 schools and their respective 30 principals were taken as sample of the study for questionnaires.
Whereas, 150 teachers, 300 parents and 260 students of 30 private secondary schools were selected through cluster random
sampling procedure while for interview six private secondary schools, three each from Upper Kurram and Lower Kurram
were chosen on the basis of access. Data were collected through four separate questionnaires and interviews which were
validated through a pilot study in 2013. Data were then computed and interpreted by simple percentages and Chi-Square at a
0.05. The findings revealed that majority of the private secondary school teachers were academically qualified but one fourth
of them were untrained and just less than half were not professionally qualified for secondary classes. Teachers were not
satisfied with their pay because of having no job security and reasonable pay. Private sector had higher percentages of student
passed; A1 and A-Grade holders while lower number of failure, B, C and D- Grade holder students in SSC examinations
during (2009 – 2013). Management was effective and parents were fully satisfied about their children’s’ progress. All schools
follow the same curriculum as prescribed by Board of Intermediate and Secondary Education Kohat. The buildings of
majority private schools were rented and have adequate physical facilities except science laboratories and properly equipped
libraries.
