Abstract
The major objective of the study was to examine the scope and impact of interventions carried out by National Rural Support Program (NRSP) for capacity building of school councils (SC) in district Bhakkar. Survey method was applied to conduct this study that allows examining the variables in natural setting without any manipulation or control. Geographical universe of the study was district Bhakkar whereas primary school teachers and SC members were the human universe of the study. Random and purposive sampling techniques were applied to select the sample of the study. Structured interview was constructed and validated by the experts to collect data. The major conclusions of the study are that SC may have positive impact on the access and quality of education in providing financial, administrative and intellectual support to primary schools. It needs to be restructured and SCs members get need based training for effective monitoring, supervising, supporting and facilitating schools. The current capacity building workshop has a significant impact but much is needed to be done to make SC a really supportive tool for primary schools.
