Abstract
Primary education is very important level of education. It contributes more towards the socio economic growth of the country. Provision of Primary education is the right of every child (Universal Declaration of Human rights (1989)) and is recognized by the Government of Pakistan. Resources available with the Government of Pakistan are not sufficient to provide this opportunity. The Government alone cannot meet the challenges. So some other organizations like NCHD also support the primary education of the country by its Universal Primary Education (UPE) program. NCHD is playing a vital role in the development of primary education in the country. The contribution of NCHD has not been fully determined. To plan for future, it is required that the contribution of NCHD should be determined. Recently a study was conducted to investigate the role of NCHD in the development of Primary education in Pakistan. Study was delimited to Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province. Six districts of high literacy rate and six districts of low literacy rate were selected as sample. The major findings of the study related to contribution Universal Primary Education program of NCHD in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa are presented in this study. This can be generalized to Pakistan.
