Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Caretaker Minister for Newly Merged Districts Affairs, Industries, Commerce and Technical Education, Dr Aamer Abdullah, has said that the private education system and the government educational institutions would be improved to impart quality education to the tribal youth in the merged areas.

He said this while holding a meeting with the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the network of private educational institutions “Dar Arqam Schools System Pakistan” and the Chairman of Al-Ghazali Education Foundation, Waqas Jafari, who called on him at his office in the Civil Secretariat here Friday.

The meeting discussed ways and means for improving the education systems in the merged tribal areas. The caretaker minister and the delegation discussed various proposals regarding the progress of the education system in the province, especially in the merged districts. Provincial President of Al-Khidmat Foundation Pakistan, Khalid Waqas Chamkani, was also present.

The minister and the head of private educational institutions deliberated on the possibilities of expanding the network of the schools in the merged districts. Also, they discussed public-private partnership proposals for some government educational institutions in the same communities.

In the meeting, the minister said that the provincial government was considering several valuable proposals to maintain the high quality of 10 governor model schools established in the merged districts and to run them better, including referring them to the private sector through a public-private partnership.

He said that if the school system wanted to have a partnership with these institutions in this regard, they should forward their formal proposal. He also assured all possible support from the government in expanding franchises of the best private schools in the merged districts and said that this offer was for all groups of the best and most reputable schools.

During the meeting, Waqas Jafari expressed his willingness to the caretaker minister’s offer and assured the provision of possible services on behalf of his institution in this regard.
