Abstract

 The secondary education plays dual role in the education system. On the one hand it produces middle level work force for the economy and on the other, it provides a path to higher education. Programme Monitoring and Implementation Unit (PMIU) is a cell initiated by the GoP in Punjab to keep an eye on the day to day activities of the educational institutions. The study aimed to assess the effectiveness of Program Monitoring and Implementation Unit (PMIU) in providing administrative support to secondary schools and making recommendations for its betterment. The target population was 202 Government Secondary schools.33 Boys High schools and 18 Girls High schools were selected randomly. The sample size was 25 % of the total population. The sample was drawn by using the Convenient Random Sampling technique. A questionnaire of seven items for District Monitoring Officer (DMO) and a questionnaire of ten items for Heads of Secondary Schools were used as main data collection tools. The questionnaires were administered through experienced and professionally qualified teachers who were briefed about how to administer the questionnaires. The collected data was analyzed by calculating the percentage. It was concluded that MIU was effectively reporting on progress of various programs at high schools. The unit was effectively identifying gaps and bottlenecks in the smooth running of high schools. The monitoring cell was effectively coordinating the support of donors to the education at high schools. PMIU was effectively mobilizing and managing the resources required in various programs at High schools. It was recommended that the PMIU officials who were getting data from the schools may be trained how to collect and use data about the performance of the school heads.
