Abstract
This descriptive study aimed at analyzing supervisory system for
government boys’ high schools of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Province of
Pakistan. The research was organized in seven districts of the
Province, namely Abbottabad, Bannu, Buner, D.I. Khan, Kohat,
Mardan, and Peshawar. These districts were randomly picked from
respective divisions with a view to generalize the outcomes of the
research to the whole province. The rationale of the research was
based on the fact that at the secondary level quality of education in the
province is deteriorating due to many reasons such as lack of
commitment of the Principals, Districts Managers, inadequate training,
feedback and support of supervisors to the teachers, to improve their
productivity and effectiveness. The main objectives of the study were to
draw indicators for development of instruments in the light of
identification and description of different supervisory concepts, models
and supervisory practices and analyze the existing supervisory system
of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, for knowing the strengths and limitations to
provide solution of the problems. The tools of the research consisted
three questionnaires for teachers, principals and districts managers.
The items of the questionnaires were divided into six sections. The tools
of the research were made reliable by Cronbach’s Alpha test statistics,
objective approach and pilot study. The total sample population of the
research in the randomly selected seven districts was 6281 in which
5815 were male teachers, 445 were male principals, and 25 were male
DEOS, DY, DEO and ASDEO each included. The sample size was
